I recall seeing at HomeFix a kit for DIY chemical cleaning of the wall unit.
Did anyone tried it . Any idea how effective it is ?
If its good I'd like to do this on my other units myself and then resume regular servicing.
Why bother? Last week one aircon was leaking condensation coz it was choked by dirt.
My fault coz I did not arrange servicing for the last year and I use this aircon daily.
The technician actually had to disassemble my wall unit. He showed me the dirt accumulated on the fan and the condensor (I presume, at least it looked like one). He emphasized the worst part was the jelly lookalike scum which was on the chassis and various parts of the unit. According to him these jelly clogged the drain pipe and therefore caused the condensation to leak out of the unit. It could be a fluke sometimes the jelly flows down the pipe hence the unit stops leaking / able to drain the condensation after switching off.
