        "text": "Black substances around your air conditioner are often mold, but can sometimes be dirt or dust accumulation. Mold typically has a fuzzy, slimy, or discolored appearance and may emit a musty odor. If you suspect mold, avoid touching it. Observe its texture and smell. If it's patchy, growing in moist areas, and has a distinct musty scent, it's highly likely to be mold. For confirmation and safe removal, it's best to consult with a professional.",
