Default Anyone used FrigiClean A/C cleaner (the foam, not the spray)? - 05-22-2009 , 01:42 AM






I have an '06 CRV with a mildew stinking vent system (it's out of
warranty). Frigi-Fresh (the spray) doesn't really do anything...it lasts
two, maybe three days (and I do pull the cabin filters when I apply it).

I'm thinking about getting the Frigi Clean foam kit and trying that.
Anyone have any experience using that (or any other similar product) on a
Honda? Did it work?

tia, Patrick

just use alcohol. that's all these things are, only expensive and
scented. take out the filter, get a squeezy bottle, spray in some
isopropyl alcohol making sure you get as much of the evaporator matrix
as possible, and you're done. repeat periodically. make sure the
evaporator drain is not blocked.

This assumes one has direct access to the evaporator.

I always thought bleach was used to kill mildew.
