Air conditioning is utilised in many buildings throughout the world to ensure the provision of pleasant, healthy working environments.
One important area of the air handling system often forgotten until problems occur is the condensate collection pan associated with small de-humidification units.
Stagnant condensate, accumulating in the pan, provides an ideal habitat for various bacteria, which multiply rapidly forming odorous biological slimes.
As growth continues drain lines become blocked and the resulting overflow can cause considerable damage to the structure and furnishings, apart from the obvious inconvenience to staff and guests.
These biocide tablets can be used as part of a planned maintenance programme within industrial, commercial and medical establishments, hotels, public and private buildings that utilise air handling units.
The products broad biological biocidal action ensures condensate pans, ducted systems, drain lines, tanks, gullies etc. remain clean and clear.
This versatile product, which requires no specialized doing equipment, is easy to use and store, controls odours and is ideal for small volume systems.
