Routine sanitization of your yacht’s HVAC coils and blower wheels is essential for maintaining clean, breathable air and extending the lifespan of your onboard mechanical systems.
In the marine environment, where salt, moisture, and organic buildup are constant challenges, these components can become contaminated quickly—leading to musty odors and microbial growth.
We start by inspecting the HVAC unit to determine if the coil and blower wheel can be safely removed. In some cases, older units may require in-place cleaning.
We safely pump down the HVAC system to isolate refrigerant and protect the components. We then carefully disconnect and remove the coil and blower wheel for thorough cleaning.
We use professional grade cleaning tools and cleaning agents to gently hand-clean the component without causing damage.
After cleaning, we carefully reinstall the coil and blower wheel. We then power up the system to ensure it is operating properly.
We don’t just work on land-based systems—GreenFox has marine HVAC experience and understands the tight spaces, unique duct configurations, and corrosion-prone environments onboard vessels. Our technicians take extreme care during every project and are trained to work around luxury finishes, sensitive electronics, and limited-access mechanical rooms.
We recommend sanitization at least once per year, or every 6 months if the vessel is chartered frequently or exposed to high humidity and salt spray.
Not always. If access allows, we may remove the coil for deep cleaning. In situations with limited access, we use in-place methods that are equally effective when performed by a trained technician.
Yes. We use only coil-safe tools, non-corrosive agents, and techniques approved for delicate marine HVAC components.
Yes. Blower wheels and coils are often the source of mildew-like smells, especially in humid marine conditions. Treating them helps reduce odor at the source.
