AHU / AC COIL CLEANING

Answering questions about how to clean A/C evaporator coils usually begins with why to clean them in the first place. The evaporator coil in your air conditioner is ground zero of the cooling process that keeps your work place comfortable throughout these long Louisiana summers. Cooling a house is all a matter of moving indoor heat energy outside. Installed inside the indoor air handler, the evaporator coil circulates refrigerant that absorbs heat from household air circulating through the ducts and conveys it to the condenser coil outside where it’s dispersed into the air.

Taking out the heat
The heat extraction process that takes place at the evaporator coil relies on a precise amount of refrigerant vapour flowing through the coil and clean coil surfaces to facilitate the efficient absorption of heat energy into the refrigerant. As these surfaces become coated with dust or the small air passages that allow air to pass through the coil are obstructed, the effectiveness of the heat transfer process begins to decline proportionately. The direct impact is on your ELECTRICITY BILLS.

It’s the humidity, too
Your work place cooling equipment is called an air conditioner instead of an air cooler because removing humidity from indoor air is an equally vital function of the evaporator coil. Moisture in the air holds heat and makes living spaces harder to cool. Conditioned air at low humidity levels cools more effectively and feels more comfortable. A dirty coil also underperforms as a humidity extractor, leaving rooms clammy and making cooling less effective.
