Airedale offers coil treatment

UK: Airedale International has added long-lasting anti-corrosion treatment for HVAC heat exchangers to its after-sales service offering.

Corrosion treatment is designed to maximise the efficiency and performance of air conditioning systems and components such as heat exchangers, evaporator coils, condenser coils in external chillers, condensers, dry coolers and more.

While aluminium heat exchangers and coils are relatively corrosion resistant, even without any type of coating, harsh conditions in certain air conditioning applications often require additional protection. Typically, these can be offshore or coastal applications, power plants, industrial environments, urban dense applications, and any areas that have high levels of airborne pollutants.

According to Airedale, protecting aluminium coils can triple the lifetime of the heat exchanger, prevent early deterioration, capacity loss and the need for coil replacement. Applied protection could also save up to 30% on annual energy costs, the company says.

Airedale offers three corrosion treatment plans that promise to protect, refresh and renew coils in heat exchangers that are between 3 to 8+ years old.
