QUOTE(ozak @ Aug 22 2019, 01:58 PM) Wheel/blower cannot be remove by consumer for cleaning. It is fix into the aircon housing. Hi,The only way is take the whole aircon down and flush cleaning. Which is able to do by serviceman. What we need is how easy to access the blower and do the normal vacuum cleaning on it. Many Aircon brand is not easy to access it. I used to remove my Panasonic aircon blower wheel to soak + clean. This is the video I followed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atQZtEEcE4c...&index=2&t=353s I don't really consider it that difficult to remove... For Daikin, i'm just not sure if it's the same (mitsubishi is similar to panasonic i think...). I want to gather opinions b4 i head on to dismantle  Thanks for your input!! |

QUOTE(ozak @ Aug 22 2019, 02:59 PM) what is your Panasonic aircon model? I couldn't reply y'day when my post count are reached I brought another aircon Mitsubishi model which have the feature that easy to clean the blower. Might change all the aircon to Mitsubishi.  The model should be CS-PS9NKZ. I'm not 100% sure as it is in my home town... |

QUOTE(VeeJay @ Aug 22 2019, 03:01 PM) Ya you are right, on some models its easily removed, other models its completed and I observed recent models, its almost impossible to be removed by consumers...sigh! Oic, that panasonic model was bought ~ 5 yrs back...I'm not sure on the model you have, but generally the models where it can be removed, has a black cap and under need it there is a pin, that you need to pull out, thats about it. And then push and tilt the roller at one end and then slowly remove it. I dun see why engineers design them to be difficult to unmount tho... Shouldn't the trend geared towards self-maintainable...  I've already made arrangement w/ a service man to remove & clean the blower wheel + vacuum drain pipe. Told him strictly no pressure spray or chemical clean as I dun want the whole room to get messed up. Funny thing is he commented: "ohh u want singapore style ar?" |

Ya i've seen them hang a semi-enclose bag (with a pipe that leads to a pail). they then force spray water all over onto the indoor unit and the surrounding air is misted with vapor (& dust?)... always freak me out this way ...i find that cleaning the blower wheel + drainage pipe + filter is good enough most of the time.. perhaps chemical clean once every 3-4 yrs suffice ba |
