hello my friends today i want to show you
an amazing way to clean your air conditioner when it is inside the window and you don't want
to remove it from the window and it's the way to do it from the inside if you look in here i'm
not talking about just cleaning that air filter i'm talking about actually cleaning and see all
this nasty stuff and i want to show you two ways to do it um one should be super good but let's go
ahead and take this off right here okay you wanna hold this for a second i went ahead and i already
unscrewed there's four screws um so i went ahead and already unscrewed but i want to go ahead and
pop this off and while we're cleaning this i might go ahead and spray this with some bleach water or
something or soak it in bleach water or something um to go ahead and start um because this thing
itself looks a little bad so i'm going to need to cut this right here but i want to go ahead and
take it off and you can see kind of like what it looks like right there and so let's go ahead
and get to cleaning all right so we went ahead and we we took this off there's like two screws
here and we got this thing in a bag right here so i want to go ahead and um maybe clean this up
a little bit put it uh maybe just place some root bleed spray on it um and i need this to be drying
out while we're doing all this the two screws that were here were holding this electrical paint yeah
this little piece right here yeah so we put it in a bag to keep it from getting wet or bleach on it
yes all right so i'm gonna go ahead and take care of this all right so i'm just spraying this down
some of this maybe a mold and i want this to be soaking and working some while we're cleaning
it out so just kind of spray it on let it soak got some stuff in there and um this should be
working for us while we're cleaning out oh it is gross all that stuff if you have like a bleed soap
mixture may work just be careful because sometimes some bleach uh some oblations some different
types of soap may actually make poison scoops all right so we want to show you two different
ways this is a way in case you don't have a shop vac with like specialty tools um to suck
it off this is this way can actually work but what is your method here um i have a
toothbrush and you want to be very gentle you don't want to bend the metal here
um and i just kind of use the toothbrush to kind of like fling the dust out by doing this
little like that okay and then what what's that for the toothbrush and then after after i
get as much off as possible while it's dry then i would have the spray bottle that has
just ivory soap and water just a mild soap and i will go ahead and spray from the top
down and it will kind of run all the way down all the dust and the dirt will run down and
then what i would do if you don't have a vacuum a wet vac is i would um soak it up with paper
towels just kind of stick paper towels in here gently and soak up the water okay so i have right
here a rigid shop vac this is like a spatula t1 because it's the kind that can actually disconnect
to become a blower and then i have some reducers right here don't worry i want to put amazon
affiliate links in the description hopefully um so i have like reducer type things right here
and then it brings it all the way down to do like the detailing so i'm gonna go ahead and get this
out of the package and get it all set up and start okay these are really cute um they're just like
tiny little attachments and brush and then there's like a suction here so if you were doing this and
you have a shop vac you can just suction the water right out of the bottom if you were going to use
um water but i think these are really useful and um it's kind of interesting to see how this works
on the we've never done this before so normally she would do it the old way with the with the
toothbrush but it takes a while there may be some really nasty sludge that gets like down
in here so this should work out really well for that all right so the vacuum took a lot of it
out now she's got some water and soap um if you use a spray bottle that has a
stream you can actually really like get some of that dirt out but this one
doesn't have a real strong stream but i'm just gonna wet it down and
then like um use the toothbrush and then i i dipped the toothbrush in a cup of
soapy water to clean it off as i go along and kind of um because some of the dust has gotten moisture
and so then it like hardens on like down here it wouldn't vacuum off it's kind of like hardened
on to the um whatever these are called what are they called coils is that what they're called but
you can see it coming cleaner as you go down it it's like getting back to that metal color instead
of being coated in dusty grime so this takes a little while but if you're patient you can get it
nice and clean and then your air conditioning will work more efficiently i've done um i think
two videos on how to clean it from the outside and i also want to do a video on of how to clean
an air conditioner like if you want to get really really extreme and remove it completely from the
window and then like how you can go about cleaning it to get like a really aggressive thing um even
more so maybe even than this um but this is a really good way to do it for the inside of your um
home so let's go to time lapse all right before we go to time lapse i just want to say it's a good
idea to have your air conditioner unplugged first and also um you want to do a paper towel away um
just the soaks up the water that you're spraying if you have a paper towel sitting in
here just kind of helps soak it up as you drip water and also you're gonna
be careful of electric eyelids so as you can see we're making
a lot of progress here um the ac unit the bottom left
is still a little dirty but it's definitely coming way way way way cleaner
you can uh kind of see it's uh really coming along so let's go ahead and go back to time-lapse okay everyone so there may be like mold back
in here different ac units may be a little bit different for this one she's spring uh she
wants to go and spray bleach in there to kind of get rid of a little bit of the mold that's
starting and then she wants to rinse out with water um obviously you need to get rid of all the
bleach so you don't have like the fumes blowing back at you because that could be hazardous
so how long do you want to let that set for um not long few minutes all right so the
bleach has been soaking for a little while now she's wiping it out and then what do you
want to do and i'm just going to rinse it with a little uh water just plain old water um we've
had air conditions in the past that got really bad mildew all in here and that's gross and like
the air you're breathing it's coming out and so i would recommend doing this periodically before
it gets too bad but in florida we have really bad humidity in the summer and it can really get
bad fast i think there's this guy right here all right um are you gonna spray the water
too okay yeah so i'm just gonna rinse it off just to try to get the bleach off of there and um you don't really want to just be
careful with the bleach fumes make sure it's all gone before you're running your air
conditioner and also just remember that bleach is corrosive to aluminum so something to keep
in mind you may not want to let that sit there you want a paper towel and then um on the bottom of the air
conditioner we went to uh probably going to like use the shop vac to uh
just kind of suck some of that out and um which attachment do you
want you want this little one yeah okay so we have so we can take the shot back and
bring all the way down to this little teeny tiny thing right here which is kind of cute it's a
very huge shot back to have something so small we want to go ahead and turn it on and let's go um okay so now we have this part right here now i
had gone ahead and sprayed bleach on this earlier and i went ahead and was rinsing it off earlier
in the water you wanted to get back a little bit um so it's like way way cleaner um i need to
go ahead and screw this on i might wipe it down a little bit there's two small screws
and then this was held on by four screws so i want to go ahead and take this out put
it on screw it on and then screw this up all right my friend so we have a really like far
much like cleaner ac unit here um you can see the coils see how beautiful it looks remember
how disgusting it looked earlier by the way everyone if you really if you appreciate what
