@midwestmealworms: random hvac question #hvac #mealworms #hvacadvice

SpitefulTick :

Don’t use bleach, find something that would work best and safest for aluminum

scott :

bleach fumes will get sicked back into aluminum coil area and start corrosion which lead to premature refrigerant leaks.

tenni56 :

What's that air freshener in your house? Ohh, that's called bleach.😂😂😂💪💪💪

AlexanderDeGr8 :

pan tabs

GatoBlaster2000 :

Yes if you want to replace your evaporator coil in a couple years

Carl cage :

Don’t use either.

EatMyAssLikeA_Potato 🦄 :

yeah this is a great way to guarantee you'll be replacing your evaporator coil in a year.... bleach causes aluminum to oxidize very fast and coils are made nearly 100 out of aluminum, this will create leaks. stop putting bleach in your drain, especially since you have an AHU.

Tyler666 :

Yeah bleach on aluminum coil see you in less than 5 yrs

keving :

pan tabs available online they last months

cecil :

what if now here's here's an idea or a thought. what if you instead of spending all that money on the other stuff you bought the enzyme tablets and popped off that plug and put some enzyme tablets into the pan that the enzyme will eat and break down the buildup

Kevin :

did the plug on the other side just like that if you put the tablet in the other side it might do what he says

Atheist 🇺🇸 :

SURE

goontime031914 :

Buy some algae tablets put them in the drain pan. That way only have to remove door every few months.

BS Bourbon Channel :

Definitely use bleach... if you like replacing your Evap coil 🙄

Displayname :

You only need very very hot water

Kevin :

it's usually done on a yearly service it has to be cleaned all the way to under the A coil

Churchill9890 :

Don’t use bleach use vinegar or dawn dish soap

Dumbshit :

It’s actually illegal to put chlorine into the ac air stream can cause people to get nauseous

slow125 :

just take it off, give it 1 thorough clean, then use viper drain pan spray to prevent slime buildup. it shouldn't build up crap within 3 month

kingmarksammy :

bleach in the coil drainpan will cause corrosion to the coil and possibly shorten its life...

Blank :

Do that and you void your warranty if you have one and you'll need a new Evap coil sooner rather than later. The fumes will eat the coil fins.

dnorm :

Don’t use bleach

dnorm :

Use these, they work great
