Mold on wood platform in closet unit
My coils are frozen and the unit will be replaced in the next few days. The wood platform supporting the unit is wet and has started to grow what appears to be a small amount of black mold although it's possible it is dirt. It's hard to get close enough to tell. I guestimate that the frozen coils have been causing a moisture problem/dripping for less than a month and more than a week.
What should I do now while waiting for the AC instillation to occur, and what should I make sure is done to the platform before the new AC is installed to minimize mold issues?
Note that I live in Texas and it is hot, but I can probably survive a few days without AC.
