จำเป็นมั้ยต้องทำความสะอาด EVAP ?
ระบบ Cooling Pad ใน EVAP ทุกยี่ห้อส่วนใหญ่ผลิตมาจากเยื่อกระดาษด้วยกันทั้งนั้น กรรมวิธีการผลิตก็เกิดจากการทอเยื่อกระดาษให้มีชั้นติดกันหลายชั้น เพื่อกักเก็บน้ำในอยู่ในชั้นของกระดาษนั่นเอง ดังนั้นตัว Cooling Pad จึงต้องสัมผัสทั้งสารประกอบที่มากับน้ำ ลม ฝุ่น และสิ่งแปลกปลอมอื่น ๆ ที่มากับน้ำโดยตรง นานวันเข้าหากไม่ได้รับการทำความสะอาดหรือบำรุงรักษาที่ถูกวิธี และตรงเวลา ก็จะตามมาด้วยปัญหาต่าง ๆ เช่น กลิ่น เชื้อโรค พัดลมไม่เย็น ท่อตัน พัดลมทำงานหนัก ฯลฯ

Is it necessary to clean the EVAP?
The Cooling Pad system in most EVAPs is predominantly made of paper mesh. The manufacturing method involves weaving layers of paper to trap water within the paper layers. Therefore, the Cooling Pad itself must come into contact with various substances that come directly with water, air, dust, and other contaminants. If not cleaned or maintained properly and on time, it can lead to various problems such as odors, bacterial growth, ineffective cooling, clogged pipes, and heavy fan operation, among others.
Is it necessary to clean the EVAP?
As for the cleaning process, it should be done regularly every 3-6 months for large-scale systems. However, for small-scale residential EVAPs, cleaning once a month is sufficient for continued operation. The cleaning steps and methods are not complicated, but safety considerations are crucial. Here are the steps:
1. Filter the water quality entering the system. It is recommended that the water entering the system has a pH value between 5.5-8. If the water is too acidic or alkaline, it can shorten the lifespan of the Cooling Pad. If the water has a high hardness level, over 100 ppm as CaCO3, it should not be used without treatment.
2. Regularly replace the water in the system to prevent water from becoming dirty or too concentrated with impurities, which can decrease the lifespan of the paper and degrade its quality faster.
3. Avoid using harsh chemicals that are corrosive as they can damage the paper. Especially avoid Oxidizing Agents, but if necessary, they should be diluted before use.
4. Regularly clean and rinse the water distribution nozzles to prevent dust buildup and reduce the workload on the fan, resulting in electricity savings.
5. Avoid using concentrated disinfectants as they can affect the paper quality and lead to degradation.
6. Regularly clean and dry the Cooling Pad to prevent the growth of microorganisms and small organisms that can be harmful to the system, such as algae, fungi, and small insects.
7. Clean the water reservoir with suitable cleaning agents and disinfectants as it is another source of microbial growth that cannot be overlooked.
8. Sunlight is another factor that can be harmful to the EVAP system as algae and certain bacteria can thrive in temperatures and sunlight shining directly onto the machine.
9. Do not place strong-smelling substances, chemicals, or garbage near the EVAP system as it relies on drawing Fresh Air from the surroundings. If sources of odor are placed nearby, the system will draw in those odors.
10. Avoid direct contact between the Cooling Pad and various substances such as phosphorus, fertilizers, food, or organic matter as these substances can promote mold and bacteria growth in the paper, leading to decay. If signs of decay are detected, the affected paper should be replaced or removed from the system promptly.
