All right so today we're going to clean a condenser using the condenser needle by speed, clean sponsor at the podcasts, really great equipment for cleaning, and I'm gon na show you the process, actually a real rural situation here that we ran into where a condenser is very Dirty due to a dog, it's been laying up against it, even though it was actually maintained not too long ago. Alright. So, like I said, this condenser is a little unique, maybe six months ago or so, but the dog lays right up against it and it is very dirty, even though I'm a fan of pulling the top most of the time. I know some of you don't pull the top, so I'm not gon na judge actually see the dog carrier.

The condenser needle is a really nice option to get the condenser clean without nearly as much work of removing the entire top and reaching the common air condenser. Needle by speed clean, we have two quick disconnect here that attaches from this. The nice handle all kind of hold like this, using it like a like if you're in the hospital and they're feeding IV fluid in it's sort of like that. That's all this little clamp works and then that attaches to this quick disconnect here, the condenser needle now, I'm gon na use my everyday cleaner that we use at Kalos Piper heavy-duty nice foaming cleaner, so that process is gon na be first, I'm gon na set the Unit up safely, then I'm gon na rinse, the condenser inside and out especially on this side.

It's so filthy, then I'm gon na foam it let it sit and then I'm going to rinse it from the inside out using needle first things. First is always just making sure to disconnect so it's nice and safe. If I was working inside the unit, I would definitely make sure to check my meter against a known voltage source and then check to make sure that I have no voltage of the condenser, both like the leg and leg to ground for safety sake. But in this case we're not even taking the panels off so it's nice and easy now! Well, you can use the wand with the oil jet I'm speed, cleaning that hose pressure.

Those pressure also works great, so we're just gon na use a regular old hose. Alright. So, like I said, we're gon na use Piper heavy-duty. All we're gon na do is just open the jug of the cleaner and when it's time to foam and just put the feed hose into it.

But for now I'm going to first attach the condenser needle to the quick disconnect here all right, so that's attached, I'm gon na attach that to the hose. So then, you can just rotate the wand as you spray the water in and again I'm just rinsing it right now that way. The foaming action really work on this coil, because that foam helps drive that stuff out of the condenser coil, and this one is really packed full of junk. It makes it so much easier.

I don't have to bend in and stand on my head, especially on these really tall condensers, which is the nice thing, even when you're doing a full maintenance on them. Even when you're pulling the top off. Is you just don't have to strain your back as much and still get nice coverage with the water? Now I live out here in rural Central Florida, where I don't have the best water pressure. It's not the fault of the wand.

It just might pull the water pressure. Stick that in there and the nice thing is this clear tube. You can actually see the cleaner work its way up through the tube of you. It's coming right up through, and this best John Pasteurella talks about this.

But it's best to feed build your foam from the bottom up. If you can I'm gon na just to clean her up a little bit more, I definitely suggest using a cleaner, like speedy foam or Viper heavy-duty. That is not a caustic, cleaner and still wear eye protection, because, regardless of the fact that it's not a dangerous cleaner - and you still want to get in your eyes now with this - I'm just foaming it it's okay to add a little foam from the outside. Like this, it's definitely not enough pressure to force the contaminants inside the coil, especially with my really crappy water pressure that I have here probably be better just to grab the coil jet Franklin all right.

So now this will foam I'm gon na. Let it sit for five minutes or so just let the foaming cleaner, dwell and then we'll come back and win sit all right. So now I'm just gon na rinse it off. I've pulled the hose out of the cleaner.

It's nice because you don't to worry about mixing cleaners or anything like that either now we're gon na win sit all right, so a lot cleaner than it was that's for sure. All that dog hair has been cleaned off there. We have it. That is the condenser needle from speed clean and it's available at a supply house near you, thanks for watching.
