How Florida Humidity Impacted Our Ocala Washer Repair Experience

# Appliance Repair in Ocala: Battling Florida Humidity

Living in Central Florida, especially in the Ocala service area, means dealing with high humidity that can impact household appliances like washers and dryers. Recently, our team was called to a home near Silver Springs to fix a front-loading washer that was leaving clothes damp and smelling musty.

## What We Found
- The humid environment had caused mold buildup inside the drum and gasket.
- The washer’s drainage pump was partially clogged with lint and residue, slowing water removal.
- The homeowner hadn’t run a cleaning cycle in over 6 months, common in humid climates.

## Steps Taken
1. Thorough cleaning of the drum and rubber seals to remove mold.
2. Replaced the faulty drainage pump with a new OEM part.
3. Educated the homeowner about running monthly cleaning cycles and leaving the door open after use to prevent moisture buildup.

## Lesson Learned
Humidity in the Greater Orlando Area and surrounding regions like Marion County can accelerate mold and mildew in washers and dryers. Regular maintenance and timely professional inspections by Clermont technicians or those serving Sanford and Winter Park areas are crucial to avoid costly repairs.

> If you live near landmarks like Lake Eola or The Villages community, keep an eye on appliance performance during the humid seasons and call professionals early.
