A formulation and method to treat and control microbial growth present in the water of climate control systems such as air conditioner air handlers, dehumidifiers, and humidifiers, which formulation can be entrained and dispersed into to living space air. Specifically, a formulation is provided in the form of a tablet or a spray for being applied onto a wetted surface element present in these systems which will effectively control the growth of microbes such as fungus, molds, bacteria, and virus present on the surface for an extended period of time. The formulations include at least two metals, at least two chelating agents, at least one surfactant, and at least one viscosity enhancing compound.
A method for treating a wetted surface element in a climate control system, comprising the steps of producing a formulation comprising at least two biocide metals, at least two chelating agents, at least one surfactant, and at least one viscosity enhancing compound;
A method for treating water present in climate control systems including air conditioners, heat pumps, humidifiers, and dehumidifiers, comprising producing a liquid formulation comprising at least two water-soluble biocide metals in at least two water-soluble chelating agents, at least one water-soluble surfactant, and at least one viscosity enhancing compound;
A method for treating water present in climate control systems in the form of air conditioners, a heat pumps, humidifiers, and de-humidifiers, comprising producing a liquid formulation comprised of water, glycerol, sodium citrate, disodium EDTA, sodium dodecyl sulfate, copper sulfate, zinc sulfate, and optionally silver sulfate, and applying the formulation to a condensing water or wetted surface.
A composition for treating a wetted surface element in a climate control system, comprising a formulation comprising at least two biocide metals, at least two chelating agents, at least one surfactant, and at least one viscosity enhancing compound.
The composition for treating water preset in climate control systems including air conditioners, heat pumps, humidifiers and de-humidifiers, comprising a formulation comprising at least two water-soluble biocide metals, at least two water-soluble chelating agents at lest one water-soluble surfactant, and at least one viscosity enhancing compound.
