In Maine, we often use heat pumps to keep our garages above freezing to protect our vehicles and plumbing. However, a garage unit is exposed to car exhaust, road salt, and outdoor dirt more than any other unit in your home. Moran Heat Pump Cleaning helps you maintain these hardworking systems.
The Impact of Road Salt and Exhaust
When you pull a salt-covered car into your garage, that salt can become airborne as it dries. This corrosive dust settles on your heat pump’s internal components, leading to rapid rust and failure. Combined with exhaust particulates, it creates a tough layer of grime.
Garage Unit Best Practices
- Keep the Floor Clean: Regularly sweeping or hosing out your garage floor reduces the amount of dust the heat pump pulls in.
- Annual Inspection: Because of the corrosive environment, garage units should be inspected and cleaned annually to prevent structural damage.
