RectorSeal's Desolv Cleaning Kit Is Time-Saving, Property-Protecting Mini-Split Evaporator Cleaning Tool
Nov. 4, 2014 — RectorSeal Corp., a leading Houston-based manufacturer of quality HVAC/R products, introduces the Desolv Cleaning Kit, the industry's quickest and most convenient kit for the cleaning and post clean-up of all ductless mini-split air conditioner evaporator coils and blower fan blades.
The kit features a patent-pending collapsible, pliable, 2-inch-wide plastic framework with drawstrings for tightening around any mini-split brand evaporator encasement up to 45 inches wide.
Two heavy-duty funnel-shaped, 45-by-2-inch-wide orange plastic collection bags are designed with perforations for hooking onto the framework's hang knobs and a pliable plastic splash guard for wall protection behind the evaporator coil.
The collection bag includes an 8-foot-long extendable drain orifice tube for accommodating unconventionally high evaporator coil locations.
Also included is a 5-gallon pail that doubles as a storage/carrier for collecting contaminants, as well as a gallon container of Desolv evaporator coil and blower cleaner.
Previously, service techs have not applied enough cleaning agent for thorough cleaning for fear of damaging surrounding property, or they have jerry-rigged time-consuming and less foolproof methods, such as duct-taping plastic garbage bags around the evaporator coil to protect walls and floors. The Desolv Cleaning Kit's hook-up and disassemble process requires less than a combined five minutes.
The kit includes the following components:
• 1 gallon of patented Desolv coil cleaning agent.
• One 5-gallon collection/carrying pail.
• A collapsible framework with drawstrings for tightening around the evaporator encasement.
• A plastic splash guard to protect the wall behind the evaporator.
• Two funnel-shaped bags for collecting the cleaning agent into the pail.
The kit is designed around RectorSeal's odorless Desolv, the HVAC industry's safest, non-caustic coil cleaning agent developed especially for mini-split systems in healthcare, clean rooms, data centers, and other sensitive environments. Desolv dislodges and dissolves dirt, biological contaminants, debris, and films within minutes without harming the aluminum, copper, and metal alloys of sensitive evaporator coil tubing, fins, and the unit's plastic housing cover.
Other features of the kit are:
• Replacement bags are available in a 10-pack.
• Translucent bags allow visibility of descending liquids and particulates.
• The collapsible framework has an inner side gasket material to prevent scratching of mini-split exterior finishes.
• Available through all major HVAC wholesale distributors.
