Cleaning and Disinfection of
Air Condition Systems
The Air Conditioning System is Alive
Air Conditioning Systems, whether in a
vehicle, in an office or in the home, are in
operation nearly all the year round. They cool
in the summer and during the colder times of
the year they withdraw excess humidity from
the air.
To ensure free and healthy use of the air
conditioning system, a regular maintenance
program and cleaning has to take place.
The Air Conditioning System is Alive
Air Conditioning systems are a breeding
ground for : bacteria, fungi and other micro
organisms that are projected into the room or
vehicle interior by the evaporator fan.
These germs, apart from the unpleasant
moldy odor they spread, can cause allergic
reactions with people and in particularly with
children such as sneezing, coughing or running
eyes.
Bacteria, Fungi, Micro Organisms
Aspergillus nigar
Candida albicans
Escherichia Coli
Proteus Rettgeri
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
These bacteria can cause…
• Aspergillus nigar - serious lung disease, fungal ear infections
–
Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspergillus_niger
• Candida albicans – "yeast" infection
–
Reference: http://www.healthscout.com/ency/68/312/main.html
• Escherichia Coli - bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramps, fever,
red blood cells destroyed, kidneys failure

• Proteus Rettgeri - urinary tract infections, resistant in vitro to
all antibiotics tested
–

• Pseudomonas aeruginosa – Ear & Eye infections, Bone and
joint infections, Skin and soft tissue infections, etc

Where does contamination
originate?
• Internal Filter
– The internal filter is one of the places where
the micro organisms often like to settle.
– It filters dirt, dust, pollen dust and germs.
– The internal filter is easily accessible and can
be exchanged quickly.
Where does contamination
originate?
• Evaporator
– The evaporator is situated directly in the air
stream system and is not easy accessible.
– This make the evaporator the ideal breeding
grounds for bacteria and fungi cultures.

Usual way of cleaning
- Dismantle any related parts up to the
evaporator
- Clean the coil the manual way
- This may takes hours
Klima Fresh – Clean & Disinfect
- Klima Fresh cleans without having to dismantle
the units,
- Disinfects and absorbs odors,
- Save time and manpower,
- More effective,
Report from CTP
•Bacteria Killing rate
up to 99.99% after
20 mins
•All these bacteria
commonly appear in
the cooling coil and
the interior of the car
