2. Protect all electrical devices such as motors and
controllers from any over spray.
3. Straighten any bent coil fins with a fin comb.
4. Mix the detergent with wa
te
r according to the
manufacturer’s instructions. If desired, heat the
solution BUT DO NOT EXCEED 150ºF maximum to
improve its cleansing capability.
5. Pour the cleaning solution into the sprayer. If a high-
pr
essure
sprayer is used:
a. do not allow sprayer pressure to exceed 600 psi.
b. the minimum nozzle spray angle is 15 degrees.
c. maintain a minimum clearance of 6-inch between
th
e sprayer
nozzle and the coil.
d. spray the solution perpendicular (at 90 degrees) to
the coil face.
6. Spr
ay the leaving-airflow side of the coil fi
rst; then
spray the opposite side of the coil. Allow the cleaning
solution to stand on the coil for five minutes.
7. Rinse both sides of the coil
with cool, clean water.
8. I
nspect both sides of the coil; if it still appears to be
dirty, repeat Step 6 and Step 7.
9.
Reinstall all of the components and panels removed in
Step 1 and any protective covers installed in Step 2.
