HVAC Cleaning Services: Maintaining Drains, Pipes, and Evaporator Coils

Brandon Roberts • April 24, 2024

Although they may not be the most visually appealing parts of an HVAC system, pipes, evaporator coils, and drains are essential to the system's functionality and efficiency. Understanding their roles in HVAC systems and how to maintain them properly is essential to prevent potential problems such as water damage and mold growth.


HVAC Drain Cleaning

When HVAC systems heat or cool inside air, moisture is produced. Carefully removing this moisture is necessary to prevent mold growth, water damage, and odors. This extra moisture must be sent out of the structure and away from the system through condensate drains. Regular drain cleaning is necessary to avoid clogs and maintain appropriate drainage, which helps preserve indoor air quality and avert water damage.


HVAC Pipe Insulation Maintenance

In your HVAC, pipes move the refrigerant through the system. Refrigerant is essential to the cooling process because it transfers heat from the interior air to the outside. Properly insulated pipes ensure that refrigerant stays at the proper temperature throughout the system to maximize cooling efficiency. Pipes must be maintained to avoid leaks, which can cause refrigerant loss, reduce system effectiveness, and cause environmental problems.


Evaporator Coil Maintenance Services

The HVAC system has evaporator coils, which remove heat from the air within. The refrigerant absorbs the heat from the air as it flows over the coils, cooling the air. For effective cooling, evaporator coils must be kept clean and well-maintained. The accumulation of dirt, dust, and other airborne particles on the coils over time can impede heat transfer and lower efficiency. 


An HVAC system's coils, pipes, and drains are essential parts that enhance its performance. It is imperative to provide these components with the necessary upkeep and attention to avoid problems like blockages, leaks, and decreased cooling efficiency. The experts at Guarantee Restoration Services can help keep your home and business in proper condition and prevent future issues.

Saying Hi to July! The summer is here—and so is the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season. No matter what it brings, you can be assured that our team at Guarantee Restoration Services will be there when you need us most. Meet the Team: Marcela Argueta Every month, I have the opportunity to showcase our many awesome team members. For July, we are shining the spotlight on Marcela Argueta , who serves as a Lead Technician at our New Orleans location. She was promoted to that position in January 2025 . From Honduras to GRS Marcela was born and raised in La Ceiba, Honduras , also known as “la novia de Honduras” —which translates to “the bride of Honduras.” She moved to the U.S. in December 2016 after earning her bachelor’s degree in nursing from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras . Marcela is currently approved and ready to take her exam to become a registered nurse in the U.S. Before joining our team in August 2022 , she worked as both a nurse and a homemaker . Life Outside of Work Marcela is a proud mother of two—her son, Sebastian (15) and daughter, Eleanor (5) . When she’s not working, she loves spending quality time with her children and extended family. Fun fact: her half-sister, Brenda , also works at GRS in our Baton Rouge office! One of Marcela’s favorite pastimes is going for walks in the park. She says she often uses this time to meditate and reflect—thinking about what she’s done well and what she could improve.
