What's the most effective cleaner to remove all the crud from the condenser/eveaporator?

But I would just use plain water from the garden hose. All you're cleaning off is dust and dirt. There's no oil or other adhesives on there to require an actual cleaning agent other than water. 2001 Suburban 4x4. 6.0L, 4.10 3/4 ton 2005 Jayco Jay Flight 27BH 1986 Coleman Columbia Popup.

Spray it on, let it sit 10-15 minutes and hose it off. jodeb720 • View posts Denver Senior Member Joined: 11/19/2010 View Profile Offline Posted: 08/15/21 10:06pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator @OldWizard,won't the acid in the vinegar corrode the fins? Thanks guys. I took the 5er back to night - almost done with my floor - but I know the AC unit needs a good cleaning! That's next weekend. schlep1967 • View posts Harrisburg, PA Senior Member Joined: 12/08/2005 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Posted: 08/16/21 08:58am Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator I used this and it worked great and it's cheap at the local Wally World.

Rinse with fresh water.
