AIR HANDLING UNITS
Unclean coils can lead to higher energy bills and poorer air quality yielding reduced system reliability. Moreover, low levels of contaminants on the coils can elongate run times at increased temperatures and pressures, subsequently shortening system lifetime. A powerful cleaning product can be used for the degreasing of indoor unit coils. The cleaning and degreasing ability of such cleaners works to eliminate dust, debris and other pollutants is paramount to optimising the operating reducing wear on the system and improving product lifespan.
Don’t forget the outdoor unit condenser coils! Paired with cleaning the air handling unit, ensuring the outdoor unit condenser coil is kept in good condition is also critical to optimum diminish the cooling performance and negatively Even moderate fouling of a condenser will lead to an increase in condensing temperature of the system. Equally if the system has a high/
condenser pressure controller, checking the setting is not causing the system to operate at excessively high conditions or is set correctly for the refrigerant used – for – can have a big impact. The graph shows the impact of increasing condensing temperatures with medium temperature conditions. Even a very small increase in the condensing
from 25°C to 27°C condensing temperature can lead to a 5% to 8% loss of compressor energy Pressure increase caused by condenser fouling is easily prevented by the regular use of cleaning products which have been specially formulated to prevent this problem, acting to remove outdoor pollutants from the external
units of air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. With rising energy costs on everybody’s minds you probably want to minimise your energy bill and explore opportunities to save money. You may think it costs a lot to get your system serviced however it could cost more in the future, if it was to breakdown or become less reliable.
A simple clean using quality cleaning products as well as regular servicing, could help to prolong the life of your system, giving you peace of mind and saving you money.
