Expert Evaporator Coil Cleaning in New Jersey

Why evaporator coil cleaning matters

The evaporator is the indoor coil, and it's permanently wet while the AC runs — that's how it dehumidifies. Wet plus the dust that gets past the filter equals a biofilm that clogs the fins and smells. It is also where a musty odor through the whole house usually starts.

What the job includes

• Access panel opened and the coil cleaned on both faces where reachable
• Condensate pan cleaned and the drain line cleared
• Coil cleaner rated for indoor use, applied without bending fins
• Filter size and condition checked, since that's what let the dust through

Signs you need it

• A musty smell every time the AC starts
• Weak airflow at the registers despite a clean filter
• Water around the indoor unit, from a pan or drain that's blocked
• The system short-cycling or icing up
