This buildup causes reduced system efficiency as it interferes with the heat transfer process of HVAC units. Removal of built-up dirt and grime from cooling coils improves system efficiency, reduces electricity consumption, and increases system life. It also preserves the factory finish to minimize the possibility of water carry-over that can lead to microbial contamination in ductwork. To maintain HVAC systems at top-peak performance coils should be cleaned every 6-12 months.As part of your Indoor Air Quality Preventive Maintenance Program, clean coils on a regular interval.
