RV Air Conditioners need to be cleaned in order to work efficiently. In this episode, we’ll show you how we clean our RV AC condenser and evaporator coils, filters, and other areas to keep your AC running nice and cold. After 5 years our Dometic AC looks and operates as well as it did when we bought it in 2017. Thanks for watching, please like and subscribe.

HVAC tech for over 20 years and this is spot on. First time I’ve seen someone mention the thermistor as well as removing the negative post first. Great job.
Thanks for the vid! 😃👍
I just got a class B with an old Penguin 600 series AC. The previous owner let the foam cabin filters dry rot and half the foam is up in AC intake I bet. I tried to pick as much as I could out from below. Will I be able to get that stuff out by taking roof shroud off? Thanks for this video
Thanks for the tips working on my AC Teepee foam board project. Just subscribed 👍🇺🇲
I just ordered Nu-Calgon 4171-75 Evap Foam No Rinse Evaporator Coil Cleaner, can I use this for both the RV condenser and evaporator ?
Blowing just Hot Air. Not Cold ????
This video was the best, concise and understandable from start to finish! I really liked how you shared the type of spray to clean with. I am now a Subscriber and I approve this video!
I am confused about one thing on the condenser coil. I cleaned the front like you said to and it looks great. But when I was wiping down the fan blade, I saw the back side of the condenser coil. Man it was VERY dirty with dirt & some kind of build up on it. You never mentioned cleaning the back side. Couldn't it be cleaned too! Please help me know what to do next.
Great content. Question tho: do you have a video on furnace maintence since winter is coming up?
Thanks
– Denver
Well done
Thx for the video …but I'm about 120 kg is is safe to stand on the roof like you did😳
Super helpful, answered every question I had plus some I didn't know I had.
Best question is that degreaser safe for your EPDM/TPO roof… Or the paint / decals on the side of your filon walls food for thought.
Hi Ross,
I have another issue with my Coleman Mach 10 Heat Pumps that might be related to condensate drain holes allowing the blower to suck unfiltered outside air including dust/dirt from under the AC unit that gets deposited onto the evaporator coil.
Do you know if there is a way to access and place some open cell foam between the roof and the base of the AC unit so that dirt can no longer contaminate the evaporator coil but so than condensate can still exit the AC unit?
Marc
I’m up there every few months and it never gets dirty. Thanks for the content.
fantastic video and I will be referring to it as we clean our units…..I really want to be the one to do it, but at a robust 287 pounds I fear I may be to portly to crawl around on my roof…..this may be a job better suited for 120 pound wife….lol. Although my camper does have the aluminum frame, perhaps I could risk it???? I called Flagstaff and they "recommend" folks on the roof are around 275 or less.
A Vapor steam cleaner works amazing on these coils. Something like a Vapor Rino, even the smaller ones blast the dirt through the coils and out the other side. Anyway, works on every coil I have tried.
Unless you have a no-walk roof. Then the internet goes silent in terms of suggestions. That is the one thing about my camper that really pisses me off.
I had to remove the fan and condenser coil shroud because I saw that the fan-side of the condenser coil was very dirty. Had never been done … 2018. This cleaning along with the inside mod with TP resulted in such an incredible system. I’m ready for the AZ heat! Thank you!
You can't keep the coils too clean. Even when outside your home, clean the house unit with waterhose once a week.
My popup camper a/c will cool for like 10 mins max, then the compressor cuts off for 6 mins or more. And never gets cool inside. My filters was real dirty. But when i take the filters off and the inside shroud cover. It will then cool the camper until it froze up. So do you think it's possible the coils need cleaned inside and on the top? We just bought the camper.
Thanks for the tips and tricks! I purchased those cleaning materials w/ your links ; ) Keep up the great content!
Cute pups!!! Thanks for the video.
I totally just used your instruction to clean our a/c! Thanks!
Any tips for doing this if you don't have a walkable roof? We have an older travel trailer and I'm pretty sure you'd go right through the roof😅
How do I clean the coils from inside my old mh? The coils just above my ac filter. When I remove the filter I look upward and there is the coils. There is also so wiring in my way. Please advise if you can. Thank you.
Compressed air is essential to clean the coils as best as possible, along with blowing out all debris/dust. Hand cleaning will never get the coils as clean as they could be. Only thing I heard about compressed air was for cleaning filter. 🤔
Thank you sir for the video
What could be the cause of it not blowing cold? The compressor kicks in and everything but it doesnt seem to cool the air. Both coils have been cleaned thoroughly with coil cleaner… When i take off the air filter from inside the rv i can see the evaporator coil freeze up a little bit…. any suggestions?
Thanks for the info it really helped me out
Great video. Thanks for posting! 😎🤘🏼✌🏼
can you use the Nu-Calgon 4171-75 Evap Foam No Rinse Evaporator Coil Cleaner on both the evap and condensor coils? I noticed this same company has a cleaner for the condensor coil so I wasnt sure if it was safe to use on both??
How long does each can last? I have 3 AC’s. Thanks!
Man, If I ever l buy a used RV, I hope I can find one from someone who has maintained their RV as meticulous as you have yours. Great job.
