Why Your AC Coils Need Cleaning
What’s so important about outdoor coil cleaning for your air conditioning unit? First, let’s take a closer look at what your AC does and why it needs evaporator and condenser coils.
Your air conditioner is essentially a giant heat exchanger. It moves heat from one environment to another with carefully selected gasses and parts, including your evaporator coil and condenser coil. When those coils are dirty, the system can no longer effectively absorb and radiate heat to cool the air being pumped into your home.
Any number of things can build up on your AC coils. Moisture is always working its way through the system, and because air is blown through consistently, grime and dirt will build up naturally over time. Dust, debris, and sediment are big worries, but they’re easy to remove if you clean the coils often enough.
In some cases, there will be coils inside the building. These should be carefully checked by a professional, especially if they’re in an air conditioning unit or heat pump. For outdoor coils, you should also call a professional, though you may be able to perform some basic maintenance if the coils are easily accessible.
AC Coil Cleaning Process
During outdoor coil cleaning, Coolbreeze Comfort Solutions will remove the grille from your AC unit to access to the interior. Our technician will remove any debris and dirt with a vacuum, and then wipe away excess grime carefully. Bent fins are straightened at this time and the coils are checked to make sure there’s no additional damage that needs repair.
To make sure your coils stay clean for longer, keep the area around your outdoor AC unit clear. This means cutting back any bushes and removing any debris from the area before the unit is used each season.

Frequently Asked Questions About AC Coil Cleaning
How Often Should AC Coils Be Cleaned?
Regular professional cleaning should be done once a year, and if you have easy access to your unit, supplemental cleaning should be done once every month or two.
How Long Should I Wait After Cleaning the Coils Before Turning the AC back on?
The AC unit can be turned back on 30 to 60 minutes after a coil cleaning. This time will allow for the coils to completely dry, helping you avoid any electrical issues.
