Learn the proper method for cleaning shell and tube heat exchangers to restore efficiency, prevent system failures, and leave a professional impression. This guide covers inspection, mechanical tube cleaning, flushing, and customer communication—perfect for HVAC contractors who take pride in doing the job right the first time.

Cleaning condenser and evaporator coils is essential for maintaining efficient refrigeration and HVAC systems. Whether you’re running a deli, grocery store, restaurant, healthcare facility, or even a residential home, dirty coils negatively impact energy efficiency, food safety, and air quality. However, instead of using traditional chemical solutions or water-based methods, many businesses today are turning to dry steam systems for coil cleaning. In this guide, we’ll explore how dry steam works, why it’s a chemical-free and highly effective approach, and what you should consider before adopting this method for greased coils, walk-in coolers, light commercial HVACs, and more.
