I don't know what you mean by the "main vent". Is that inside your supply fan unit (furnace) in the garage, or inside the house? If it is just inside the fan unit, it should be relatively easy to fix. In fact, if you have mold inside the unit, it may be cheaper to replace the entire unit if it is old. Also, mold damage inside your house may be covered by your homeowners insurance. Fresh Air Solutions has a 2 of 5 rating on Yelp with 28 reviews. Lots of complaints. They also offer Groupon discounts, which would turn me off to them. Good luck.
excellent reply, thx for sharing info
