Not a big issue with the older 10 SEER units that had flat fins and reasonably spaced around 14 fins per inch. But the newer high efficiency coils have fins that are much tighter and they are not flat. They have little scoops stamped into them with the opening facing the outside to make the air more turbulent resulting in better temperature transfer. These scoops are little funnels and once you push even a little dirt into them, it plugs them good. You won't see it because it's between the fins. I've seen many plugged coils, especially evap coils that were spotless on the faces yet plugged so bad I had to run 4 rounds of NuBrite just to get the air flowing back at rated CFM. That said, you don't get paid more for getting it cleaner. You get paid for getting it done. And this homeowner obviously likes to point the mower discharge at the outdoor unit and not turn off the AC while mowing. It'll look like that again by the end of mowing season. Sometimes good enough is good enough.

On something like that I'd do it the same way but also like to hit it from the inside out to make certain I have a clear stream of water. I use a 3/8" diameter by 4' rigid copper spray nozzle I built to spray the coil from the inside without having to disassemble the whole unit. Basically like the needle jet. Good to see someone else cares about the quality of their work.👍

We all have our own ways and opinions however, it would appear your method works very well for you. The key would be on the initial rinse, not to spray straight on and push the dirt inside the coil(like a dummy)... We can see that from an angle like you did, the initial rinse took off the majority of the surface dirt.... then the coil gun took care of the deeper cleaning. Good video in my opinion.

As an industrial hygienist, the probability that new growth will re-bloom if the material is just laying on the ground is very high. A lot of that accumulation is mold too; not just dust such as Alternaria Alternata (a dust borne mold causing respiratory issues). And 10% of the population is allergic to Alternaria Alternata in the United States. In Arizona greater than 51% is allergic. Sensitization (allergy obtained) when the individual has been overexposed for a period of time and the immune system writes and exaggerated response to the allergen. Why is Arizona different? They are running A/C more and it stands to reason that the well known reservoir (place this allergen is found) is in A/C coils. It is an established fact that indoor air quality is adversely impacted by HVAC systems which are not frequently cleaned. Kudos to workers keeping up on condenser coil cleaning and filter changes. The kiddos developing asthma and folks struggling with breathing problems need your support. Anyway, just a suggestion, vacuuming with a HEPA vacuum without leaving the bulk debris on the ground might be a good idea to prevent rapid re-growth. However; if the goal is repeat business (wink, wink) homeowners might have reason for removing the tops and going in deeper with the cleaning. Knowing that much of that dust is an airborne mold that causes respiratory issues might influence the approach to cleaning.

"Pump-up sprayers can kiss my ass." If you pay close attention to the liquid being sprayed on the unit, probably 80% of it runs down the coil and onto the ground. I use a "Pump-up" sprayer so I don't waste the cleaning solution. "Coil gun does a really good job." Is it the coilgun or the Nu-Brite? Because Nu-Brite is so strong a cleaner, I've only used it on kitchen units that have grease on them. Did you remove the fan and clean inside the condenser? On a unit like that, I would vacuum it first, so as not to leave a ton of debris on my customer's lawn. They appreciate it.

I believe a professional cleaning that cost money should be done by pulling all the panels including the corners and top. disconnect the wires for the condenser motor and set it aside. vacuum the inside and flush the coil from inside out and outside in. both ways to really clean it. The main reason I clean the bottom out of dirt and leaves is that a few condensers a customer of mine had a very long time and the compressor developed a leak at the bottom where dirt had eroded a hole in the metal. Cleaning the equipment properly is hard and should cost about $200-350 but it is much better than just an outside only cleaning.

Back in July 2022 the high pressure switch tripped, we had to get a tech out to reset the high pressure switch. And cleaned the coils and last July my blower Moyer failed.” Had to get the blower motor replaced, unfortunately I had to replace both my downstairs and upstairs air conditioners.” Back on Wednesday 4/1024 Lennox is so expensive!! Just to get a part replaced, to bad Lennox won’t let you use universal parts like Goodman. And Goodman keeps parts in stick, then having to call the manufacturer to get the factory part you need.” I don’t recommend Lennox to anyone! Lennox is a big pile of 💩💩 the 5 ton Lennox air conditioner I had was 15 years old it was time for her to hit the road!! 🤣🤣🤣 good job cleaning the coil John!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Good job Big John. I just cleaned out our outside condenser coil. It was covered with vines. I cleared out the vines, pulled the power, lifted the fan motor housing, and sprayed out the coil inside and out. I need to get some detergent. Then went down in the basement and changed out the filter. There was also an access panel to the indoor condenser coil, which was matted with cat hair in only one year. So I washed the indoor coil too. Last night it was 80 degrees inside the house. I had to shut off the a/c until this morning when I could get a look at the problem. I thought the condensing unit had gone back, but this morning I turned the a/c on, everything was running fine, even the squirrel cage. All the system needed was a good cleaning. Now I'm sitting here in a nice cool house while outside it's 90 degrees with high humanity. Take care John and thanks for posting these videos. Next year we're looking into getting another Goodman. This one has lasted 25yrs and still runs like a champ. We just figure it's time for an upgrade. I wanted to order one online, the entire hvac system with outside condensing unit and gas blower delivered to the front door for about $1500 then find a contractor to do the install. Trying to save a few bucks on a fixed income and budget. What do you think?

This is true. I asked an experienced HVAC technician about the best way to clean the coils. He said clean them the best way you can. It doesn't matter the direction, as long as you keep them clean and jet the water at a downward angle. Most home owners will not remove the fan assembly or take the panels off. So just rinse the coils with a water hose and a low pressure nozzle is better than nothing.

Whatever works, John. Is the unit back up and running? cooling?..........yes, you say? Great. I just love textbook geeks who service 2 units a week......"you're doing it wrong." I saw my first Sanyo Tri Zone mini split last week...... There were 3 tiny compressors inside the unit, one for each head, neat! Sadly, one of em has died :(
