Condenser cleaning kit?

Spring isn't too far off and soon I'll be needing to use the AC again. Last
year I put off getting the condenser cleaned, it needs a good cleaning
because it stinks when I run it due to dirt & matter in the fins mildewing
from the moisture that condenses on them...

I heard there's a kit that lets you squirt cleaning solution up the drain
tube, enough solution to immerse the condenser, loosen and float away the
gunk and then carry it down the drain tube then you let it run out.

Has anyone here tried this? Does it work? What kit would you recommend?
Is it a significant savings over having a dealer do it?

Actually, I think the part that needs cleaning is the evaporator, not the
condenser.

The two cleaners I know of are BG Products FrigiFresh (specific to
automobiles) or Nu-Calgon 4171-75 Evap Foam (refrigeration industry).

You can't spray either of them up the drain line, you need to squirt
it right on the face of the condenser coil. This involves drilling a
small hole in the side of the plastic heater box to spray the cleaner
foam in, then placing a plastic plug in the hole to seal it. But they
are self-rinsing.

The Nu-Calgon is probably more widely available, but it doesn't come
with a "Snootzle" extension tube for the spray can - so you may need
to be creative getting it through the hole and onto the coils.

Standard warning: They're alkaline cleaners, and may damage
carpeting or discolor dashboards if they get slopped around.

Go ask your Toyota dealer. They have a kit that you shoot up the
drain line. The substance expands and cleans the evaporator
out....and then runs back out.

You can have the dealer do it for 75 - 100 or buy the kit for about 20
bucks.

I've used Frigi-Fresh in several different vehicles. I just set the vent on
recirc and spray into the interior intake. One application lasts several
months.

They must use something really good. I put the vent on recirc and sprayed
two cans of Lysol into the interior intake for about five minutes, and it
made a vast improvement--for about one day, then it was back to smelling
like mold/mildew.

I asked one parts department at a dealer and he said they don't carry
anything like that. I'll just call various Toyota dealers until I find one
that has it. Thanks!

By the way, it's actually the evaporator coils I'll be cleaning, not the
condenser, right?

It looks like Subaru dealers carry BG products - you can order it on line at
[url]http://www.subaruparts.com/catalog/?section=355[/url]

Or just google BG Frigi-Fresh.

AFAIK, BH products are sold only through dealers and repair shops.

If your local dealer does not have it....I'll drop by my dealer and
pick up one for you.

Here in Florida it is a common problem.

Hell I have one here!

It is made by Toyoguard, Inc
100 NW 12th Ave
Deerfield Beach FL 33442

It is called

A/C
POWER FOAM
Evaporator Cleaner & Refresher
Professional Strength

The sales pitch on the can says:

'is a quick and easy to use treatment for the elimination of odors
caused by
the presence of mold , mildew, and microorganisms'

'Power Foam's unique foaming and cleaning agents fill the
entire evaporator case assembly with highly effective active
ingredients which dissolve and wash away contaminants'

Toyoguard is the aftermarket division of Southeast Toyota.

Meaning Southeast Toyota Distributing more than likely doesn't make
it themselves, they have a custom label put on a regular production
can from the OEM maker - and of course they double the price to make
money on the deal.

Without seeing a can, I Betcha it's the BG. Sometimes companies
doing this don't even try to hide it, they just paste their paper
label over a printed can and the name underneath shows through... ;-)

And if you want to find out for sure there's a simple way - insist
on getting the MSDS sheet. If you ask they have to provide it, and
it's usually just a copy of the original product's MSDS.

Southeast Toyota Distributors and Toyoguard do not make anything. SET
distributes Toyotas and Toyota products, Toyoguard distributes non-Toyota
products. My guess is that their product is made by BG Products.

Thanks, Scott! I Googled "Toyoguard" and found a lot of hits but they all
seemed to be only a reference to a protection package for the Prius... I
tried "Toyoguard, Inc." and got nothing, tried "Evaporator Cleaner &
Refresher" and got nothing, then tried "AC power foam" and got only one
relevant hit, some Amway site which apparently doesn't sell to end users and
they're in Malaysia anyway. I think I'll go with frigi-fresh instead...
