Going to Johnstone on monday, and get some coil cleaner. This stuff looks
good. Dilutes 1-4 for condensors, 1-8 for evaporators.
Enviro-Coil Coil Cleaner
B81-474
The alki foam stuff I'm using dilutes 1-1. So the more expensive stuff
dilutes down farther, and is cheaper in the long run.
What do you guys use? I've got a job next week, cleaning some BIG outdoor
condensing unit fins. I started the job with alki foam, but the part of a
jug I had didn't go very far, and I'm needing another jug of cleaner.

The only coil cleaner I use is "Foam & Clean". I don't know what the
brand name is but it works well & you'd better wash it off good
because it's strong. I've tried others but none worked very good. As far
as expense, if that's a factor I don't think you're charging enough.

Geez. Stormy has a 'big job' coming up , and he's going to
have to buy a whole gallon of coil cleaner for it.
He's moving up in the trade.

HP cleaner on page 12
http://www.vapcoproducts.com/catalogPDF/2006prodcatalog.pdf
mix it 4parts water to 1 part cleaner. It won't hurt the coils, and unless
the coils are really bad, it only takes one application. Its made for evap
coils, but I occasionally use it on condenser coils with good results.

This is the stuff I'm talking about:
http://www.atlanticchemical.com/product.php?pid=1#
Even though its a non-acid alkaline its very corrosive & they recommend
washing it off completely. It's usually used more for condenser coils
because of that, but as long as you wash it off it does a good on
evaporators.
