Frequent cleaning of the
external coil surfaces may avoid inter-
nal clogging.
Clean external surfaces
with a softbristled brush or a plastic
fin comb.
The plastic fin comb can be
used to straighten bent coil fins.
Clean internally-clogged coils with com-
pressed air.
Always direct the com-
pressed air stream straight into coils,
to avoid bending fins, and in the oppo-
site direction of normal air flow. Re-
move covers and louvers (figure 4-1, 4-3
and 4-4) to service coils.
