The thermostat says 76. The wall says otherwise.
Almost every mould case in a closed Florida condominium traces back to the same thing: cooling that stopped working properly and nobody measuring the result.
Get your care planOn every visit we take the interior temperature and relative humidity with a meter and record both in the report. Above roughly 60 percent humidity, mould begins to establish on drywall, leather and fabric — long before anything is visible.
We also check the parts that cause the failure: the air handler and its closet, the condensate drain line and pan, visible refrigerant lines, and whether the unit is actually cycling. When a building chiller goes down, you hear it from us rather than from the owner below you.
What is included
- Measured readings
- Temperature and relative humidity taken with a meter at fixed points, recorded in every report.
- Condensate line check
- Drain line and pan inspected for blockage and standing water — the most common cause of ceiling damage below.
- Air handler inspection
- Closet, visible lines and cycling behaviour checked; filters flagged when they need changing.
- Escalation
- Readings outside the safe range trigger a call the same day and a licensed HVAC contractor if you want one.

Included in every plan
Climate verification is part of every Hugo Keys visit, from $120 a month. It is not an add-on.
Common questions
- What humidity is safe for a closed condo?
- Hold relative humidity below 55 percent, with the thermostat typically between 74 and 78°F. Above 60 percent, mould can establish within days on drywall, leather and fabric.
- Do you install remote sensors?
- We can work alongside sensors you already have, but we do not rely on them. A sensor tells you a number; a visit tells you what caused it and photographs the evidence.
