Cool Tips for Cleaning Your AC Coils
Regularly cleaning the outdoor condenser coils will keep your air conditioning unit running efficiently and prevent future problems. Here are the steps to doing it right.
- Turn off power to the unit.
- Locate the thin metal "fins" covering the coils. If they're dented or bent, use an AC fin tool to straighten them.
- Once the fins are straight, use a vacuum to carefully remove any debris.
- Coat the entire surface of the fins with a foaming AC coil cleaner. Use a stiff brush or the scrubber on the cleaner's cap to remove buildup located between the fins.
- Thoroughly rinse the surface with a hose to eliminate any remaining dirt.
