surface preparation, the best work yields the
best results.
Apply CHLOR*RID DTS - Apply directly
onto the substrate. Sufficient product must
be applied uniformly across the substrate to
thoroughly wet out surface, with no areas
missed. This may be accomplished by use of
a pump-up sprayer or conventional spray
gun. The method does not matter, as long as
the entire area to be cleaned is wetted. After
the substrate has been thoroughly wetted,
the salts will be soluble and is now only
necessary to rinse them off.
Rinse - It is highly recommended that a hose
be used, but a pressure washer will damage
the fins. The water to be used for the rinse is
recommended to be of potable quality,
though a lesser quality of water may be used
if a small amount of CHLOR*RID DTS is
added.
Check
with
CHLOR*RID
International, Inc. for recommendations on
lesser quality rinse water.
Microchannel Coil Cleaning
Air-cooled heat exchangers may include
microchannel coils.
Cleaning microchannel coils is necessary in
all locations. In some locations it may be
necessary to clean the coils more or less
often than recommended. In general, a
condenser coil should be cleaned at a
minimum of once a year. In locations where
there is commonly debris or a condition that
causes dirt/grease build up it may be
necessary to clean the coils more often.
Proper procedure should be followed at
every cleaning interval. Using improper
cleaning technique or incorrect chemicals
will
result
in
coil
damage,
system
performance fall off, and potentially leaks
requiring coil replacement.
Documented
routine
cleaning
of
microchannel coils with factory provided e-
coating is required to maintain coating
warranty coverage. Use the E-Coated Coil
Cleaning section for details on cleaning e-
coated coils.
Field applied coil coatings are not
recommended with microchannel coils.
Allowed
Chemical
Cleaners
and
Procedures
AAON recommends certain chemicals that
can be used to remove buildup of grime and
debris on the surface of microchannel coils.
These chemicals have been tested for
performance and safety and are the only
chemicals that AAON will warrant as
correct for cleaning microchannel coils.
There are two procedures that are outlined
below that will clean the coils effectively
without damage to the coils. Use of any
other procedure or chemical may void the
warranty to the unit where the coil is
installed.
With all procedures make sure
the unit is off before starting.
The water pressure used to clean should not
exceed 140 psi, from no closer than 6 inches
from the coils, and with the water aimed
perpendicular to the coils.
#1 Simple Green
Simple Green is available from AAON Parts
and Supply (Part# T10701) and is
biodegradable with a neutral 6.5 pH.
Recommendation is to use it at a 4 to 1 mix.
Use the following procedure.
1.
Rinse the coil completely with water.
Use a hard spray but be careful not to
bend or damage the fins. A spray that is
too hard will bend the fins. Spray from
the fan side of the coil.
Electric shock hazard. Shut off all
electrical power to the unit to avoid
shock hazard or injury from rotating
parts.
