Ventilation System Stayclean
Introduction
Air Conditioning and refrigeration systems remove humid and warm air from a building to maintain the comfort of occupants. The hot air in the system consequently creates condensation, which can cause damage to equipment and to property if left to overflow, and acts as a source of nutrients for microbial growth.
Why Treat the System?
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) specialists have shown that the Air Conditioning systems are the most frequent source of microbiological contamination in a building; they are dark, humid, and have a consistent source of nutrients on which bacteria thrive. In the majority of cases buildings have become contaminated with mould spores and other harmful organic matter, simply from lack of hygiene of the system.
Bacteria inside Air Conditioning and refrigeration units can affect the health of building occupants, with bacteria concentrated in volume each time it is circulated through the system. Other side effects include:
- blocked systems
- reduced cooling effect
- increased power usage
- odour
- property damage from condensation overflow
- increased maintenance costs
To avoid such problems, it is recommended that Air Conditioning systems are cleaned at least every 2 months, with condensate trays requiring regular cleaning to remove condensation.
Our Service
H2O Chemicals is pleased to offer our STAYCLEAN product, an impressive solution to minimise damage and bacterial growth in Air Conditioning and refrigeration systems. The STAYCLEAN product is designed to continuously clean cooling coil and condensate trays for up to 6 months when applied correctly, minimising cleaning costs and system downtime.
STAYCLEAN Coil Treatment is applied directly to the cooling coil to prevent bacterial growth, which can block the equipment. STAYCLEAN Strips are placed in the condensate trays and slowly dissolve to clean the system.
Both STAYCLEAN products contain UV additives. This provides an additional monitoring method to assess the level of condensation and bacteria within the system, using UV light to visibly see the coverage of the STAYCLEAN product and pinpoint areas of concern.
