AHU Coil Cleaning
The HVAC system is not only an essential part of a home but is a very intricately assembled unit to pour the conditioned air inside. It consists of various parts and AHU coils are one of them. AHU is an abbreviation of the Air Handling Unit and as its very name suggests it is designed to handle the air.
The AHU has coils that are an intricate and sensitive part of an HVAC unit and it demands very careful handling to avoid the other damages that are a possibility. These coils are prone to catch various sorts of unwanted materials as the air moves over the coils.
Cleaning enhances the unit's operational efficiency, quality of the airflow and the odor of the air. The Robotic Cleaning Service provides you the most satisfactory cleaning action that is done by trained and experienced technicians.
THE NEED OF A PROFESSIONAL CLEANING
AHU has two types of coils that are condenser coils and evaporator coils. These are made of copper tubes with aluminum fins. The evaporator coils are known as indoor or cold coils as well because it provides cooling. The condenser coil or outdoor coil is called a warm coil as it prevents the heat.
The air handlers fan blows the air and these coils are supposed to absorb the heat out of the air before releasing it inside. These coils are prone to catch various sorts of unwanted materials as the air moving over the coil of the coil contains dust, dirt, moisture and other contaminants that are not good for the quality of indoor air.
AHU coil cleaning drive should be performed with an assurance that the coils are not going to be deteriorated in the cleaning process.
Our team of professionals chose the cleaning action according to the demand of the situation.
- Compressed air cleaning or vacuum cleaning: In case of light dust or dirt we clean the coils by blowing the compressed air through the fins. Sometimes we find a soft brush sufficient for the action.
- Pressure washing: In some cases, we use plain water or a mild detergent while we tend to do rinsing in some other cases. If there are strong deposits of unwanted material we go foe stronger cleaning actions as steam cleaning. Using a pressure washer is another popular method to clean the coils but all these actions demand a very careful treatment otherwise the fins can be damaged.
- Organic Cleaning agents: In some cases, we use a garden-type pump sprayer to apply the chemical to remove the gathering of harmful stuff. The chemicals that are used in cleaning actions should be of good quality otherwise it will have an adverse effect on the coils. This is the reason that we use the best quality chemicals.
We have experienced technicians for all the actions who perform the cleaning oppression with utmost care to make sure that no mess is left behind.
