Help: Evaporator Coil Cleaner

12 years ago

I want to clean my AC evaporator coil in the attic. I did some reading on the web about Triple-D and NU-CALGON and such, but where can a regular person buy these product?

I want to clean the coil in-placed with minimal rinsing with water. Does anyone know which cleaner I should use? And where do I buy them, preferably in the store?

I'm trying to extend the life of my AC in the Texas HEAT.

Thanks

I just bought some coil cleaner at Lowes. Don't remember the brand. Stay out of your Texas attic during the day..you will die.

To save some headache this would be a good time to have an overall check of the system done with cleaning of the coils and checking the charge. I would get some quotes and consider your time and discomfort just to clean the coil.
