Quarterly cleaning is required to maintain
warranty coverage and is essential to
maintain the life of an E-coated coil. Coil
cleaning shall be part of the unit's regularly
scheduled maintenance procedures.
Failure to clean an E-coated coil on the
prescribed quarterly cycle will void the
warranty and may result in reduced
efficiency and durability in the environment.
A routine two-step quarterly coil cleaning is
required to maintain warranty.
Step one is to clean the coil with the below
approved coil cleaner (see approved products
list under the "Recommended Coil Cleaners”
section.
Step two is to use the approved salt/chloride
remover under the "Recommended Chloride
Remover” section to dissolve soluble salts
and revitalize the unit. It is very important
when cleaning and/or rinsing not to exceed
130°F and potable water pressure is less than
100 psig to avoid damaging the unit and coil
fin edges.
For routine quarterly cleaning, first clean the
coil with the below approved coil
cleaner. After cleaning the coils with the
approved cleaning agent, use the approved
chloride remover to remove soluble salts and
revitalize the unit.
