Yes, if your cabin air filter is full of debris, replace it then, spray the lysol or disinfectant into the outside "air intake" while set to AC and fan is on full blast, and settings are set to allow "outside air" in the cabin but NOT set to recirculate. Spray ample amount of disinfectant into the intake cowl located outside, below the windshield. This should kill mold and mildew in the entire AC unit and ductwork. The AC will cool better and faster, smell better, and mold and mildew is eliminated.

I have improved the presented methodogy of using this product by adding a long hose and spraying it under pressure directly into a/c coil from both in and out sides. I have swamped the coil in it and kept a/c running for longer time. This stuff helped to remove a musty smell just for few days. It temporary kills an odor but not that mold as pro foams do. May work for little issue but not for serious one.
@epsavoy2 жыл бұрын
This method will refresh the vents and cabin but so not solve the problem. The AC evaporator and lines must be cleaned out. The correct way is using a proper cleaner with an attached cleaning tube that is inserted through the AC drain line. The cleaner is sprayed upthrough the drain line back to the evaporator. The cleaner will break up and dissolve the moldy deposits and release them through the AC drain once the cleaning tube is removed.
@mikehuang13692 ай бұрын
Air conditioning is a closed system. Mold doesn't get into the AC lines where the refrigerant is. Mold can get into the heat exchange coils where the cold refrigerant passes through to cool metal fins. But when you blow lysol through the vents, the lysol would get circulated through those metal fins.

For easy access to the blower motor fan like yours , Use a professional hvac (a/c) condenser coil self rinsing foam spray after the lysol shot , Try to find one that comes with a small hose attachment for better coverage spraying , For those of you that can't get to the fan/ evaporator/ heater core easily you can locate your condensation drip line normally on the fire wall under the hood , Turn your a/c on low and look for the wet spot under the car to get an idea of the location, Put your windows down , stick the foam spray hose as far as possible & use the entire can , Now your bacteria/ mold is gone and the evaporator plus Heater core is clean with a more efficient working system for atleast a year, You can find the coil cleaning foam spray in H.D or Lowes or possibly a hardware store . Be safe

Thanks for sharing. I sprayed that product through the front last year and the moldy smell came back this year. I learned to use foam applied through the air conditioning draining hose to target the evaporator and the foam turned into liquid rinsing and cleaning because the liquid drained down dark and the cabin smells really fresh. I used the kool that includes a hose which you can re use because it also fits on a foam can to clean the AC sold at Home D for about 6 dollars. Yes you have to get under the car, but I really like that it rinses the dark mold in the evaporator.

The A/C evaporator is a small heat exchanger located under the cabin filter and is no larger than the surface area of the cabin filter. So the only thing that needs to be cleaned is the evaporator.

There is nothing in the ducting that can trap moisture nor odor as it is nothing more than an open pipe!!!

I don't recommend spraying an acidic vaporized liquid such as Lysol directly into electrical parts such as a fan motor, fan motor resistor and evaporator. (all are in close proximity to one another), electrical parts don't react well to liquids. i guess if you want to shell out $2000 plus for a new evaporator and fan motor and resistor this is the way to go. there are other safer alternatives for your cars a/c system such as coil cleaner for the evaporator, or just go see a pro that will have to fix it at his cost if he jacks it up.

Two years later and my motor,fan,evaporator,engine,etc. are running great!

So I don't have a problem with this method but you should really use alcohol instead because Lysol leaves a sticky residue and that will attract a lot of dust build up and that's a whole nother problem..... so for this one at least 91% just put the alcohol in some type of spray bottle 100% works better and you won't have to worry about your electronics with alcohol either 100% factual

@@NuMBERNYC it works perfectly and like I said you won't have to worry about the Blower getting Caked Up with dust and everything else that's in the car because alcohol isn't sticky at all when it dries and it dries instantly

Hey do you have to also set it to heater mode?
@CollosalTrollge2 жыл бұрын
yeh good question, i am not sure if u should use heater mode. I heard some people toggle, they go half blower and compressor on cold and then hot. So like 10/10 minutes

You probably need to clean the evaporator coil

This could have been a 5-min video and way less complicated. Basically take the cabin filter out turn on AC use the air exchange setting spray the entire can, problem solved. There, I saved you all some time.
