aircon cleaning???

[boydapa]

ask ko lng gaano ba katagal bago magpalinis uli ng aircon? every 6 months ba? eh paano kng bihira ko gamitin 6months pa rin ba?? as in once a week ko lng gamitin thnx

[BlueBimmer]

wen ur evaporator is icing up n restricted airflow occurs then its cleaning time. 6 months is too often unless u use it all d tym.

[ILuvDetailing]

boydapa: AFAIK once a year would be more than enough. BTW does your car have an in cabin filter?

[boydapa]

wala naman sya filter. bihira ko tlaga gamitin aircon ko ksi malapit lng work ko 4kms lng and maswerte na kng gamitin ko sya ng 1 beses sa isang linggo. tama ba yun evaporator lng ang nililinis dyan? ano pa? yun lng ksi madalas ko makita nililinis eh

my rule of thumb when it comes to car A/C system, if it ain't broke, don't touch it.

Nadala na ako sa A/C cleaning, sa previous car ko once a year ako nagpapalinis, pagkatapos malinis humihilaw yung lamig.

Sa oto ko ngayon, hanggat lumalamig or walang sira yung A/C di ko pinagagalaw.

Ganito rin ang style ko. If I recall si Ungas dati mas lumaki ang gastos nung after magpalinis ng aircon sa Safari niya.

Keeping your passenger side clean will help extend the cleaning period since that's where your evap is as well.

i agree with art pogi...100%

Sinasabay ko na lang ang cleaning during repairs. Same with artpogi.

If you can access the air intake, which is usually found when you remove your glove compartment, then put a 3M aircon filter cut as per size. You just replace the filter every 3 - 6 months. It prevents dust from accumulating inside the evaporator assembly. Then you don't need your aircon de-gassed for cleaning.

dats a great idea! masubukan nga. alam ko yun itura ng evaporator tapos may case sya na plastic saan yun intake dun? sya nga pla disabled na yun air intake galing labas ng oto papunta sa loob ng kotse---pinadisable ko ksi pumapasok yun usok minsan(tama ba yun). ang alam ko meron outlet ng cold air sa may baba ng evaporator, may intake din ba dun ng hangin(para sa air filter)?

May available na cabin air filter na para sa mga Toyota cars with Denso aircon. Mas mura filter kaysa pa cleaning.

[BlueBimmer]

yep dati nung nilinis evap ko sa ek nagclog ung expansion valve, napagastos 2loy hahaa

[jasonub]

Magkano yan dre?

[OTEP]

Are the Denso filters available for the full Toyota line up? However, these filters only work on 'outside air' mode. They do not filter recirculated air.

I have the 3M air filter FPajero mentioned. They were given out by a drug company but hindi ko pa naikakabit.

yep...wag mo na pagalaw pag wala kang nararamdaman na kakaiba sa a/c mo.

kanina going to work, mejo umuulan, napansin ko parang "umuusok" or nakikita ko yung hangin na lumalabas sa vents ng aircon. dati naman ndi ganito kahit naulan. is this a sign of a dirty evaporator??? kung kelangan na palinis, anu ano ba yung dapat palitan na parts or isabay na repair sa aircon para isang bukasan na lang. tnx!!!

medyo sobra ng konti freon mo but it's natural na umusok minsan pag umuulan. okey pa yan hangga't lumalamig. during cleaning, dryer, expansion valve and feon lang pinapalitan. hth

I think pag umuusok, kailangan na palitan dryer. Correct me if I'm wrong.

i remember my college classmate, me aircon shop sila sa me kamuning. a/c ng box type nya umuusok pag gabi kahit di umuulan, tuwang tuwa kami kasi ang lamig parang fog. imo okay lang yun.

sayang freon kung dryer lang papalitan. sabay mo na lang with exp. valve during gen cleaning. add ko lang, i always vaccum the flooring esp sa driver's and passenger's side para iwas alikabok but effective. hth
