Don’t let salt corrode your condenser coil
A condenser coil located near the ocean is bound to corrode unless precautions are taken. Salt (sodium chloride) in the air corrodes the aluminum fins and casing, causing pockmarks to form, known as pitting. Corrosion leads to lower efficiency, loss of capacity, and higher energy consumption. Over time, the corrosion gets so bad the condenser coil itself disintegrates. While estimates vary, the performance of a condenser coil in a harsh coastal area may be reduced by almost 50% or fail completely within a single year.
Applying a coating to a new condenser coil is an excellent way to prevent corrosion. The coating will significantly extend the life of the condenser coil compared to an uncoated coil, and the effect on heat transfer is negligible. The coating will also increase efficiency and reduce maintenance and operating costs on your condenser coil.
