Air
passing through the coils contains microscopic
dirt particles, as well as other foreign material.
After a while, this debris builds up on the
coil surfaces, making it more difficult for
the coils to provide cooling. This increases
operational costs. As an example, take a room
with a brand new air conditioner. Lets say you
wish to cool it to 72 degrees when the initial
room temperature is 85 degrees. It may take
half an hour to do so. A dirty coil is insulated,
and it takes longer to cool.
In
the example given above, it may take one hour
to cool the same room with a dirty coil. This
uses up twice as much electricity. Unclean coils
cause 1) equipment to run longer giving it more
wear and tear, and 2) use up more energy than
a clean coil, causing your energy costs to rise.
Air conditioners are among the single most energy
consuming appliances in a building. Dirty coils
often restrict air flow, providing less cool
air to occupied room areas. Keeping coils clean
is important, and should be done as needed.
Most cooling coils (evaporator coils) are cleaned
using an alkaline cleaner. Foaming coil cleaners
are usually selected because after applied,
they can push dirt that is trapped within the
coils out of the interior surfaces of the coils.
A few manufacturers call alkaline cleaners “non-acid”
cleaners to make the user think that the product
is non-corrosive to the aluminum coil fins.
However, this is not true. The American Society
of Metals Handbook shows both acid and alkaline
materials cause corrosion of aluminum. Therefore,
any acidic or alkaline coil cleaner must be
rinsed off of the coils as soon as possible
to avoid pitting corrosion of coils. Coil cleaning
can be a labor-intensive process. Our two proven
solutions for coils makes it easy to clean coils,
and extend the time between your scheduled cleanings.
The First powdered coil cleaner asks the question
"Why haul water?" Add our light weight
product to water at the jobsite instead. Forget
about leaky gallons or waste. INSTANT POWDER KEGS
is portion controlled. Good for all types of coils.
One
package contains six separate "Kegs".
You gain mixture strength by adding bags to
your water. You don't waste money like concentrated
coil cleaners by using too much right off the
bat.
And
freight costs? Why pay an extra $1 gallon and
more just to ship water. We thought you just
might already have water where you are. INSTANT
POWDER KEGS™ are so easy to use and carry.
It will change the way you work. With INSTANT
POWDER KEGS™ storage problems are gone.
One package of 6 kegs equals a gallon of concentrate,
and weighs only one and a half pounds. It fits
easily on a shelf, doesn't leak and doesn't
separate. Service etches can carry a "gallon"
of coil cleaner tried on their belt loop with
no problem.
