Heat Pump Cleaning Package

Cleaning and maintenance of heat pumps

The heat pump cleaning package is an ideal package for the service professional/contractor who installs heat pumps and also wants to maintain/clean them. More and more (air-to-air) heat pumps are being installed, but they also require a correct maintenance program. The coil of the outdoor unit must be properly cleaned and degreased on a regular basis. With this package it is possible to offer this service, by using the professional equipment of Speedclean.

The package can also be used for cleaning and maintenance of other similar air-cooled outdoor units (such as split airconditioning systems).

The importance of a correct coil cleaning

The source of the pollution in outdoor units of air conditioning systems and heat pumps can be found in the coil. The system continuously draws fresh air through the fins. When these fins are clogged with, for example, leaves, pollen or biological deposits such as flies, the air flow will drop sharply.

However, it is (very) important that there is a free air flow. If this is not the case (e.g. due to deposits on the fins), the system will offer reduced heat transfer. This is because the condensing temperature rises greatly. This will increase energy consumption quickly and significantly. In some cases, a fouled system can use 10 to 30% more energy than a cleaned system with maximum airflow!

The CJ-125 system combines a low pressure water spray of 9 bar with a volume of 2,3 litres/minute. This makes it possible to spray water and cleaning agent through the entire coil, so that the deposits are actually removed. A correctly cleaned coil results in a better air flow, heat transition and contributes to an overall better efficiency.
