New Cleaning Cradle Makes PTAC Maintenance A Breeze

It’s hard to keep your cool when dealing with the cleaning and maintenance of Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners. PTACs are notoriously hard to maintain. These commercial-grade units - typically installed directly through a wall - require annual attention to uphold indoor air quality (IAQ), reduce energy consumption, and prolong lifespan. When you have multiple units to clean, the task can be overwhelming.

 

Let’s face it - PTAC maintenance is cumbersome. It is a time-consuming process requiring multiple people. Regular cleaning - particularly in a hospitality environment - can take staff away from other pressing tasks. It is natural that this would lead to deferred maintenance. Unfortunately, neglecting PTAC maintenance can lead to multiple issues. A dirty PTAC strains to circulate air efficiently. The increase in airborne pollutants creates a potential health hazard. Plus, a dirty PTAC uses more energy and diminishes the unit’s longevity. The longer you defer hospitality maintenance, the less efficient the PTAC unit, leading to a shorter lifespan. In short, it is not the smartest place to cut corners.

 

Conversely, routine maintenance not only enhances air quality but also extends the lifespan of the unit, safeguarding your investment in the long run. But how can you balance the long term maintenance with the short-term personnel challenges? Enter the innovative solution: the EDIC PTAC Cleaning Cradle™. It’s a game changer.

 

One-Person Job: Saves Time and Money

 

 

In the past, cleaning PTAC units has been a labor-intensive task. Multiple personnel over many hours toil away on every nook and cranny. With the introduction of the PTAC Cleaning Cradle™, this process becomes a one-person job, saving both time and money. By minimizing the onsite workforce needed, property owners and cleaning contractors can enhance efficiency and realize significant cost savings. This efficiency translates to a quick return on investment, making the PTAC Cleaning Cradle™ an indispensable asset in any maintenance arsenal.

 

Unlike traditional cleaning processes, the PTAC Cleaning Cradle™ is a self-contained solution designed for a single operator to perform a deep cleaning right in the room. Here’s how it works: the patented design allows for the user to employ the adjustable jacks to quickly remove the unit from its wall sleeve. No more heavy lifting from multiple staff members. A formerly arduous task only takes minutes!
