Comfort Aire Mold Recall Lawsuit – Legal Help for Mold Exposure Injuries

If you or your family have suffered from respiratory illness, allergic reactions, or mold-related property damage after using a Comfort Aire window air conditioner, you may be eligible to file a claim. In June 2025, Midea issued a national recall affecting Comfort Aire-branded U and U+ window AC units due to a defect that can cause pooled water inside the unit—ultimately leading to dangerous mold growth.

What Is the Comfort Aire Mold Recall?

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced a recall on June 5, 2025, covering over 1.7 million U and U+ window air conditioners manufactured by GD Midea Air-Conditioning Equipment Co., Ltd. and imported by Midea America Corp. Comfort Aire units are among the affected brands.

These air conditioners may retain pooled water that doesn’t drain properly, creating a breeding ground for mold. Once mold forms, it can be dispersed into the room through airflow, potentially causing serious health risks—particularly for people with asthma, allergies, or compromised immune systems.

Affected Comfort Aire Models in the Recall

The following Comfort Aire models were named in the recall:

• RXTS-81A
• RXTS-101A
• RXTS-121A

These units, sold between March 2020 and May 2025, may have been purchased at home improvement stores, warehouse retailers, and major online platforms including Amazon, Costco, Home Depot, and Walmart.

What Are the Risks of Mold Exposure?

Mold from a contaminated AC unit can become airborne and be inhaled by everyone in the room. Some symptoms of mold exposure include:

• Coughing or wheezing
• Sore throat
• Sneezing or sinus issues
• Itchy eyes or skin
• Fatigue or brain fog
• Headaches
• Aggravated asthma or respiratory infections

According to CPSC data, at least 152 reports have been made regarding mold in the recalled air conditioners. Of those, 17 individuals reported illness believed to be linked to mold exposure.

What To Do If You Own a Recalled Comfort Aire Unit

1. Stop using the air conditioner immediately.
2. Locate the model number on the front-right side of the unit.
3. Visit www.MideaUrecall.expertinquiry.com to confirm your unit is recalled.
4. Photograph any visible mold growth and document related medical symptoms.
5. Consult with a mold injury attorney to explore your legal rights.

What Damages Can You Recover in a Mold Injury Lawsuit?

If you were affected by a recalled Comfort Aire air conditioner, you may be entitled to damages such as:

• Medical expenses
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Cost of replacing the unit
• Property damage, including mold remediation

While Midea may offer a prorated refund or a repair kit, a legal claim may help you recover more—especially if you’ve suffered serious symptoms or incurred significant financial loss.

Legal Responsibility: Who Is at Fault?

Even though your unit is branded as Comfort Aire, it was manufactured and imported by:

• GD Midea Air-Conditioning Equipment Co., Ltd. (China)
• Midea America Corp. (New Jersey, USA)

These companies may be liable for producing and selling an air conditioner with a design defect that put consumers at risk.
