Cleaning an A/C coil properly isn't for clueless amateurs (nothing personal)! If you want to spray this on the surface of the coil, wipe it off and pretend that you cleaned it, fine....but to do it properly requires a lot of extra effort and knowledge. Just do your homework and be thoroughly prepared....or have a professional steam clean your coils. Just using this as is is basically a waste of time and money. The entire coil needs to be flushed out.

Is this the same stuff as Kool-It evaporator foam cleaner?


Edit: checked with Gemini and it doesn't recommend Frost King to clean evaporator coils on a Tesla. Kool-It has a lower PH and is gentler for that purpose.

That's beyond ridiculous!! What does one thing have to do with the other?? I clean my (permanent) filters frequently, FYI! If you want to pretend that just spraying this crap on a coil is effective at actually cleaning the entire coil, enjoy yourself!....you're in good company here! There are many here who trust the hype and think that spraying this junk on the surface area of the coil actually "cleans" the coil!🤣
You know that is what the product does. You must not like following directions either..🤣

Congratulations (on copying the manufacturer's information here)!....you've now (sort-of) cleaned only the surface of the coil! What about all of the dirt and debris that's accumulated throughout the entire coil?? I guess we'll just leave it all there and pretend that we really cleaned the coil!🤣
Read directions....

I don't have the time to read all of these comments (as this may have been covered already)....but if you're using this to clean a window/through the wall A/C, unless you physically remove it, move it outdoors and use a garden hose (with a powerful spray attachment) to flush the accumulated crap out, using this can of foam is a waste of time and money! All that it does is loosen up the surface dirt/debris! I love the reviews where people spray it on the surface of the coil, wipe it off (or use a toothbrush or other type of brush), and pretend that it's nice and clean! That's superficial nonsense, since the entire coil needs to be flushed out! It gets clogged from front to back! Trust me, if you use a powerful water spray (steam cleaning is even better), you don't even need this can of crap! Just brush the surface dirt away and blast it with water!....but make sure to cover the motor and electrical component box with plastic as a precaution!
So you can just steam clean the coils as well? Instead of using this stuff? Because my unit is on a balcony that cannot be reached with a garden hose

Repped picked up 2 to have on hand, most brands of these are $18. Be aware some air handlers can't be opened to access the coils like my old build spec home. Also this is good use for Tesla AC funk too, fyi.
Mercedes too?

The product will work, just depends if you can access the coils, and have the ingenuity to find/make a tube to fit this nozzle to apply the foam with. I couldn't find many videos on YouTube, but search your particular model and maybe you will have luck!

Tesla has a known issue where the cabin filter sits in condensation and stinks so you have to do this regularly. But you can access the coils relatively easily.

There is a lot of confusion in this thread about cleaning the condenser vs evaporator coils.

The evaporator is the indoor coil inside your air handler. This should be fairly clean if you change your air filter regularly, but they do occasionally develop mold if they don't dry out sufficiently (or it's a unit that runs continuously). Cleaning this will help with air quality and maybe efficiency. You're not going to hit this with a garden hose, but some people use a garden sprayer to rinse or even to spray cleaner (which you can buy as a concentrate instead of this can if you're going this route). These coils are also where you have condensation that can rinse the coil, so it's less import to rinse the cleaner. This cleaner is designed to not require rinsing per the manufacturer.

The condenser lives outside, so there is no filter and it's susceptible to dirt/pollen/leaves from the environment and tends to get much dirtier. There is no condensation here and a lot more dirt, so rinsing is more beneficial. It's also easier to get out your garden hose to do so.

This cleaner can be used for both evaporator and/or condenser coils. Not sure if it's approved for car use, but there are similar ones designed specifically for cars. Not sure what the difference would be though.

Quote from Caleo :
If you've got AC unit (window, mini-split, or central air) that has gone a year or two (or more) without a good cleaning, get this and use it. You'll notice a difference, trust me.

Spray it on, wait 10-15m for it to do its thing, then use a fairly strong setting on your garden sprayer to blast & flush the debris out (but not so strong as to bend the fins). You might need to do multiple cycles of this if you've got some thick debris caking going on. Try to get a look at the inside of the fins (where the fan is) - the bottom's usually the worst part because that's where water usually splashes up to help cooling.
1 can should be good for at least 2 or 3 cleanings of a window AC unit.
There are several versions of fin combs out there that work really well as a 1-2 combo punch to clean severely dirty A coils. The one you want looks like a hair brush with small beads at the tip of each comb. It was downright gross how much stuff I pulled out of the fins. Be warned there are some fin combs that are 1-2" wide with an adjustable band to control how much flex is allowed that do not work very well IMHO and would avoid them.
