National Asthma Week – 1 – 7th September

At HydroKleen Australia, we pride ourselves on our ongoing exclusive partnership with National Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice Program.

This Sensitive Choice program aims to help millions of consumers worldwide make choices that help them live better with asthma and allergies.

National Asthma Week is held annually from 1^st – 7^th September to promote awareness of asthma to the general population and highlights ways to help people manage asthma.

According to National Asthma Council Australia, over 2.7 million Australians have asthma and one in three Australians are affected by allergies. Similar numbers would be the case across the world. Some common allergy related triggers are mould, bacteria, house dust mites, pollens and pet dander.

We spend so much time on cleaning carpets, bedding and bathrooms in order to get a healthy and hygienic environment, yet neglect the single most concentrated source of airborne contaminants in a room, the Air Conditioner.

Keeping your air conditioner free from microbial pollutants such as mould and bacteria will reduce the pollutants in the air at your home or work environment, which would otherwise be a trigger for asthma and allergies.

A clean air conditioner isn’t a cure for these debilitating conditions, however, a regular air conditioner clean and sanitisation by a HydroKleen ACWWA Certified Wet Wash Specialist Technician is an option for management of one aspect of the issue; the need to breathe clean, hygienic air.

A HydroKleen of your air conditioner will remove microbial pollutants, such as:

• Mould spores, which are generally found in damp places;
• Dust mites, or more specifically their poo, in the air. These mites like places of high humidity and warmth;
• Other bacteria and germs.

Always choose a HydroKleen ACWWA Certified Wet Wash Technician.  They are trained professionals in the cleaning of Ductless Split Systems.  The equipment a HydroKleen Technician uses is fit for purpose and the cleaning agents are non-toxic and environmentally friendly, bringing your AC unit back to ‘As New’ hygienic condition.  The clean is backed by HydroKleen’s industry-leading 9-Point Guarantee.

The HydroKleen team always have your health and safety in mind and practise COVID-19 Safety procedures and requirements.

We make a difference to peoples’ lives EVERYDAY right across Australia and the World, helping people Breathe Healthy Air™.

If you could see what we see, you would have already cleaned it. If you knew what you were breathing in, you would have acted sooner!  If you could see how much money you have been wasting on electricity, you would already be saving!

It is so important to get your air conditioner regularly cleaned and sanitised to support healthy and hygienic air in your home or work environment.

There are some common signs to be aware of which gives you warning that it’s time to book in a HydroKleen ACWWA Certified Wet Wash Specialist Technician including:

1. The filter looks dirty, grey and dusty.

This build up of nasties stops your air conditioner from running as efficiently as it could, costing you money from higher electricity bills. Plus, a dirty filter spreads that dust and irritants throughout the air, which can be troublesome for those suffering from allergies.

2. It’s not blowing as hot or cold as it used to.

It’s frustrating when you turn on your air conditioner and it just doesn’t do as good a job at heating or cooling the room as you’re used to. This is an obvious sign of an air conditioner struggling to work efficiently. If this is happening to you, it’s time for a HydroKleen.

3. The unit is ‘huffing’, ‘wheezing’ or rattling.

Any unusual noise coming from your air conditioner should always be investigated. These noises tend to get worse if the problem isn’t resolved. A fan, bolt or panel may be loose, or the fan may have become unbalanced due to dust collecting on it. The coil fins may be full of mould and bacteria and need a clean out, and any other number of issues may have occurred that often a good clean and sanitise will resolve.

4. The air from the air conditioner smells.

Air conditioners have a drain pan that can get clogged up, resulting in mould and mildew growing and releasing their familiar musty smell. Sometimes, this water, and dark space becomes tempting for small animals, such as lizards, which then get stuck and decompose, adding to the smelly situation.

5. It has been over 12 months since it was last cleaned.

You may not notice any of the previous signs that should trigger a clean and sanitise, but let us assure you, if it’s been over 12 months since a clean, your air conditioner will be harbouring, dust, dirt and microbial pollutants that are harmful to your health.

To get your air conditioner back to functioning efficiently and effectively and you and your family breathing healthy, hygienic air, contact your local HydroKleen ACWWA Certified Wet Wash Specialist Technician. 

Our specialist technicians use equipment that is solely designed to clean air conditioners and our cleaning agents have been approved by National Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice Program.  We’re the only Air Conditioning Cleaning Partner in this program!

HydroKleen Australia is pleased to announce their membership of ACWWA as a “Provider” member.

HydroKleen’s membership of ACWWA confirms their commitment to the hygienic cleaning and sanitising of Ductless Split System air conditioners and improved indoor air quality for the consumer by cleaning to ACWWA Wet Wash Guidelines.

ACWWA’s mission is “That every ductless air conditioner is cleaned at least once a year, back to as new condition, in a safe manner by a suitable trained and qualified professional, using professional equipment and environmentally friendly cleaning products for the good health and protection of the consumer of the conditioned air output”.

HydroKleen invented the Wet Wash cleaning system 10 years ago.  Their ongoing research and development of their equipment continues to offer the most effective and efficient way to clean Ductless Split System air conditioners.

HydroKleen Technicians have undertaken the ACWWA certification process and are now ACWWA Certified HVAC Wet Wash Specialists & Hygiene Assessors as per ACWWA’s HVAC Wet Wash Guidelines for Ductless Split Systems.

HydroKleen Technicians are professionally trained and qualified to clean Ductless Split Systems air conditioning units back to ‘As New’ using HydroKleen’s trade-marked fit for purpose cleaning equipment, cleaning system and agents to ensure consumers breathe healthy and hygienic air in the home or workplace.

As stated in the ACWWA HVAC Wet Wash Guidelines for Ductless Split Systems, the benefits of having an ACWWA Certified Specialist clean air conditioners are:

• Removal of harmful biohazards including mould, skin, faeces, bacteria, dust and other contaminants.
• Increase of energy efficiency – once contaminants cover the surface of your air conditioner components, the components can no longer function properly and air flow is restricted. Removing these contaminants will allow the air conditioner to again have full and free airflow to the star rating specifications prescribed by the manufacturer.
• Reduce Power consumption – a properly functioning air conditioner will increase energy efficiency and reduce power costs.
• Reduce fire risk – contaminants place additional load on the air conditioner as it works harder to achieve the desired temperature of the air conditioner.  Removing these contaminants allows the air conditioner to reduce the operating load on the electrical components, reducing fire risk.
• Increase the life of the asset Contaminants forming over the surfaces of the air conditioner will decrease performance and increase the workload on the unit, resulting in reduction of the operating asset’s life expectancy.
• And most importantly, healthy and hygienic indoor air in the home or workplace.

Your HydroKleen Technician will place an ACWWA Verification Seal on your unit to confirm the clean has been completed as per ACWWA’s Wet Wash Guidelines.

This gives the consumer confidence and reassurance that the clean has been performed to the highest standard available for the cleaning of Ductless Split Systems in Australia.
