Both steam wash and chemical wash clean deeper than a standard service, but they work differently. Picking the right one depends on your unit's condition and your household needs.

Steam Wash

  • Uses high-pressure hot water vapour
  • Kills bacteria and mould without chemicals
  • Best for units serviced regularly
  • Gentler on coils and gaskets
  • Faster turnaround and lower price

Chemical Wash

  • Uses foaming chemical solution
  • Dissolves heavy grease and hardened grime
  • Best for units neglected over a year
  • May require fan coil removal
  • More thorough but costs more

Which Should You Choose

If your unit is less than a year since the last service and the dirt is light, steam wash is ideal. If the coil is heavily clogged or there is a strong odour, chemical wash is the better choice.
