Do you know how to remove blower and drain pipe for Westpoint Brand 12000 btu Split Air Con please 🙏 .Need HELP!!! 🙏 🙏 🙏

My air conditioner was working less than satisfactory, it was going to cost me between 4 and 5 hundred dollars for a service, somehow your video came across my path, after watching i done the service myself and the air con is working great. Thanks go out to people like yourself who do these types of videos saving people money everywhere. Thank you so much 🙏
Wow 500 to clean aircon where you are at. Please share the video link to your friends and hit the Super ❤️ Thanks button below the video if you like 😊👍
$500?!? Who tf pays that much?
For me, service costs around $40-80...
@@BotMee69 Australian mining town, prices are inflated beyond belief, $180 just for them to have a look. I refuse to pay for things in this town that you can get cheaper elsewhere or do yourself.
I've seen dozens of videos on air conditioner cleaning on CZcams. This is the best, hands down. Thank you.
Thank you 👍
There is no better tutorial out there. The exact right amount of instruction, words, and demonstration. Perfect . What you tube is all about. Even I could do this because of this video. You’re a star. Well done
Thank you. Please share the link with others who may find it useful too thank you 😊👍
Best tutorial I've ever seen for aircon cleaning
Thank you. Please share the link with friends 👍
This is the best 'how to clean the split air-con unit' video on the net. The choice of scenes, editing and commentary are at pro-level.
And by the way: Your cleaning job is better than what most companies would do. Thanks a lot for this cool work!
Thank you 😊 👍

One of the best Air con maintenance videos I've come across. Very good visual demonstration. Complete in all aspects. A big thank you Sir.
Thank you and you're welcome 👍
What a tutorial! Exactly what i was looking for. Thank you!
Thank you
This is exactly what i calling STEP BY STEP.
I do not just LIKE IT, i LOVE this video.
Thank you! 😊 please share the video link with friends 👍
Best video ever on how to remove the blower. Huge thank you empowering the common folks.
Thank you 😊
I was hesitant in cleaning my unit, but your video gave me the confidence to do it. My unit was different, but the instructions followed. Thanks
Big thanks for the reward! And I'm happy the video helped ☺️ 👍
I watched a lot of other videos on how to clean a Mitsubishi A/C, but this one is the best. Thanks for the clear, step by step instructions, with up close visuals. Thanks!!
You're welcome and thank you please share video link with friends 😊👍
very detailed step by step process how to clean a split type air conditioner ..good job sir 🎉
This is the best & most detail video ever, great job
Thank you 😊👍 please share video link with friends
Thanks for the video. My Mitsubishi unit was a little different but I figured it out. To anyone hesitating about removing the blower wheel, do it. Mine was so disgustingly dirty I can't believe I was breathing the air that blew through it. This was an extremely messy and tedious cleaning job, but I'm glad I finally did it.
Thanks for watching and encouraging others to do it. 👍
😂I can imagine what mine's like. I have 5 to do😅
BhOK PMNML😅💋😄😄😅😅😅😮😅g I lytf. Mom on n😅LLL😅
Did you have trouble removing the wheel? I’ve been at it for hours and it won’t move more than about an inch. I removed the set screw and everything
My aircon unit is also different from the poster's. For me was that i was able to remove the drum, but after cleaning I wasn't able to slot it back, drum's right hand side just won't slot in. I had to call for a aircon cleaning guy, he just use a sandpaper (that I managed to find in my store room) and sand a bit on the drum's right hand side cylindrical pin, and it slotted in without much of a problem. He mentioned my aircon model is one of the toughest to put back the drum, and usually he would clean the drum in-place. I bet this was the easiest S$50 he made, ever! Would I try removing the drum again? LOL, I think not, I could had damage other thing, like the compressor/gas pipe or other stuff while trying to slot in the drum. Maybe next time I will try those water-spray/water-collector-cover-thingy kit and clean without taking out the drum.
Always wanted to do this and never thought I'd be able to do it. This is probably the best tutorial I've ever seen with clear and detailed instructions step by step. I just managed to clean 1 of my unit and it feels great! Thank you sooooooo much for the wonderful tutorial! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent tutorial. Clear, concise, comprehensive narrative. I feel confident cleaning the blowers of my units after watching this video.
Thank you. I'm happy that it's coming in handy.
Wishing you success
after 2 years, a very healpful video in youtube on how to deep clean ur bedroom wall ac
thanks man.
You're welcome. I'm glad it's helpful. Thank you
@@sosolomon22 it did ! just finished cleaning mine for the first time, it just the part of the roller blower was harder, and more technical to get it out, but without your vid . would be much harder, thanks brother keep up the good work
@@unpleasentverity7627 😊👍
Great video. They also make foaming a/c coil cleaner which will give the coils a super clean. It is worth considering adding this step.
Thank you. And good suggestion 👍
This guy is the most comprehensive DIY Personal with clear instructions. Thank you for your Video 🎉
Thank you, following your guide I took everything apart, cleaned and disinfected it. It was insanely gross and dirty. I had to do this myself, because all the service companies will charge you and basically do nothing. I was willing to pay people to clean my AC but NO ONE WANTS TO DO IT! Even for OUTRAGEOUS sums of money. Lazy scammers all of them!!! THANK YOU MY GOOD MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is very very similar to my 2 year old Fujitsu indoor units. They've stunk every couple of weeks since 1 year after the system was fitted. I booked a deep cleaning where the engineer who visited sprayed the coils and did nothing else.
I have finally cleaned the blower units in each machine and due to the disassembly, found 2 of them had severely pinched condensate drain runs, which I have now resolved.
Thank you for posting this video.
After 1 year of continuous use mine stopped being as chilling as it used to be during the first 4-5 months of install due to dust & grime, i decided to deep clean mine, didn't have the confidence to do it untill i watched this detailed video, did everything accordingly and everything works just fine, great video..
Absolutely could not figure out how to get my drain pan off till I found your video. Thanks a ton, you are the man!!
Thank you 😊👍
This was soo detailed and helpful. No time wasting but showing every step. Thank you so much.
Great tutorial. Even I could clean up my Mitsubishi. Now I'm about to put the unit together. No way I could do it without your video. Thank you!
One of the best DIY videos I've yet to see and I'm always DIYing.
The detailed sequential algorithm/process and the close-up shots were wonderfully effective in disseminating the transfer of knowledge.
Much appreciated.
Perfect explanation! We were able to clean the blower roller the first time, what no professional cleaning service did before. Many thanks!
I just clean my ac, especially the cylinder fan, after this video...LG brand...i believe even brand different but the concept is there...really helpful ..tq so much sir... Luckily nothing break during the process.. 😂
You're welcome and thank you for your comment. Happy to know concept is similar for LG aircon. May I know what is your LG aircon model?
@@sosolomon22 mine is BS-C096HYA1.
More than 8/9 years.. 😂
After watching your video aircon tutorial ...we have the courage to clean or own aircon...thanks save money n proud ..thanks again aircon now cold👍🙏
You're welcome and thank you. Please share video link with your friends 😊👍
This is the best video available on CZcams for cleaning a Mitsubishi mini split. I’ve now used it 2 times in 2 years. Thank you!
Happy to know. Please keep using and share the link to friends 😊👍 thank you
This is the video I’ve been looking for!! I could not find an ac cleaning video better than this - so Thank You!! The details, step by step, the camera work - all so helpful. Some people making videos like this seem to forget that this is a job we have never done before - I need the details & I can’t afford to miss a step. So, BIG thank you. New sub. :)
I have seen some of the CZcams video on how to clean the indoor unit but they are not so clear as this. Thank you sir for this clear and detail explanation.
Thank you for a very detailed video.
I actually tired. It's was super easy to dismantle. My dad got super happy after cleaning the whole unit 😄
Happy for you and your dad too! Thank you for watching, subscribe and share please 🙏 😊
بصراحه من افضل القنوات التي رأيتها من حيث الشرح و توضيح المشكلة و حلولها.
اسأل الله العظيم ان يهديكم إلى الهدى..
اللهم آمييييييين.
Thank you thank you.
Allahumma aamiin🤲🏼
Thank you very much for your video! I am a new home owner and I found my air-con units were full of mold! Although my units were a different brand and a little older, I was still able to use your guidance to take them apart and give them a good clean.
Just did similar to my LG unit and am grateful for your guidance on the blower impeller removal!
Amazing tutorial...😊
Thank you so much for this info - I didn't realise the blower wheel came out until I watched your video.. our unit is only 3 years old but was full of mould that I could not get to. It's made a world of difference!
Glad it helped and thank you too for watching and supporting my channel. Share it with folks that may find it useful too. 😊
Extremely clear n easy to understand step by step guidance on how to dismantle an indoor ac unit for cleaning : was always wonder how to dismantle the fan blade when i do a simple cleaning , now i got my answer
You the Best
Thank you so much 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent tutorial! I’ve been looking for such a DIY guide for the longest time. Thank you! I hope the procedure is identical for any other brands.
Thank you for watching, subscribe and share yeah ☺️
Great instruction. Clear, concise, covers all the points of difficulty, and is pretty universal. Thanks so much!
you are a life saver! Tutorial was easy to follow and gives me confidence to try this at home. Ive been wiping and dabbing cloths where i can get too, but never fully removed the mold and crud from inside the blower. Thanks
I'm glad it helped ☺️ you're welcome. Please share the video link 👍
Man... Thank you for this detailed guide! I couldnt get past drain pan! Getting the blower out was really a wrestle! Managed to get the blower cleaned easily after seeing this video.
Thanks alot!
My AC has been making some terrible grinding noises at 3am, I wake up and turn it off as fast as possible. I've put it down to the fan. It's also not nearly as cold as before. I've called dudes in due to not being cold and they just power wash it for lots of money. I'm not calling anyone again. I found this video and I've watched this video 4 times and am ready to give it a go! Hopefully I can find out what is causing the grinding, and clean it out myself at the same time. Much appreciated! :)
Glad it helps! Share it. Thank you 👍
Best explanation, simple, concise and easily understood.
Great video, saving people money!
You're providing a great service to people... I've got an HVAC buddy and I asked him to check the pressure of my freon. I told him I'd read that low freon will cause freezing over. He said yes, as well as dirty filters and blower wheel.
I'd never thought the blower wheel would have such an impact, but I'd also noticed diminished air flow... waiting till sunset to pull blower wheel. My filters have never really been dirty, each time I cleaned them.
Finally found a detailed video after searching in youtube! Just take note my 2022 model have 3 screws for the cooling fins
I've done several DYI videos myself on different things, and this tutorial made me extremely happy to watch. Great video. Thank you!
Thank you thank you I'm happy that it make you happy to watch! 😊
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. I just finished cleaning my mini-split using your video as a guide. Well done! I didn't have the confidence before, but your video gave me the nudge I needed. Also, one tip, don't install the blower wheel all the way to the right (flush up against the side) - it will make a rubbing noise when rotating. I backed mine off about 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch to the left before tightening the screw and it runs silent.
I'm happy the video helped. And thanks for adding the useful tip about the positioning of the blower wheel. 😊👍
May I know if it is possible not to flush all the right, since there is only 1 hole to screw the blower wheel ? Pls advice.
Just paid SGD160 to a freaking scam shop LY AIRCON to do chemical wash . . .but my fan blower wasn't even taken out for washing. ... Gonna DIY! Thanks to your video - Clearest on the entire world wide web I believe. 😃
Best video on this subject I have seen so far! It explains everything you need to know! Thank you!
You're welcome and thank you. Please share the video link 😊 👍
I just finished cleaning by following this video step by step. Appreciate!❤
What an easy to follow detailed explanation. You are very good 👍. Thank you very much.
I was afraid I might break something but you made it look easy. I’m very confident now 😂
You're welcome and thank you. It wasn't easy for me but I hope the steps would make it a little easier. 😊👍
Thank you Solomon. That is the best instructional teaching aid on self air-con cleaning I have seen. 👍👍👍
This is super super useful. I did it a few times but not able to get the main over and roller out effectively. Your tips are truly great
Thank you and I'm glad it helped
your video is great, very short and demonstrative, and you helped me improve my English by listening to you, thank you very much.
Even though I have a different AC model, this video still gave me an idea on how to disassemble my one thank you!
You're welcome and thank you. What model is your aircon?
An excellent video with specific and nice close up shots. Best video yet. I clean my own unit and have used these videos for “reference refreshers” before I do my annual service. Only thing to add like another comment is to spray and clean/disinfect the fins (metal coils) with a cleaner which they sell at most hardware stores. It cleans and conditions the metal and helps future corrosion. Easy one step spray to add while your at it. Thanks again for a great video which will be used as my reference for future!
One heads up is to find a cleaner that's for coil cleaning because if you use some other random cleaner it can make the metal coils corrode in future so have to use the right cleaner.
Thank you buddy for your DIY mitsubishi aircondition cleaning
You're welcome and thank you
The best introduction for the deep cleaning🎉
Fantastic video. I am having trouble with the blower. It’s not spinning fast when I put it back. It’s like it is too tight on each side. I’ve taken the unit apart twice now. I’m not sure if I should grease the bearing. I did everything you did in your video. This was the best one I’ve seen.
This is brilliant, thanks dude. I thought all we had to do was clean the filter. So much more to it if you want it really clean.
Good guide for the info on self cleaning the Aircon. Although not using the same brand of Aircon but it help me to accumulate some knowledge.
Glad it helped. Thank you for letting us know 😊👍
I'm jealous (and a little bit mad, LOL) that your drainage tray went back into place so much more easily than mine did. 😆
Oh the number of times I fumbled were cut out from the video. It would be painful to watch had I kept them in 😅
@@sosolomon22 OK, that makes me feel a little bit better. Thanks! LOL
@Dude-qs4wi 😂 have a nice day. please share the video link 😊👍
Really provided enough details enough, I'll try it by myself when having time! Thanks a lot!
You're welcome and thank you. Please come back here to share your success story 😊👍
for the blower i recommend using pressure washer. its the only way to get rid of really everything and it takes like 30s to do it propperly
You are a life saver, thank you for this tutorial!!
You're welcome and thank you for comment. One life saved! 😊 pleasd share video link with friends 👍
Thanks for putting up this step by step guide. Appreciate your efforts :)
This is a remarkably well produced video. You can tell from the simple and clear English, and effective visuals that very careful thought went into planning and executing the video. I love the professionalism. KUDOS 🎉🎉🎉!
Excellent! Million times thank you! I did follow your instructions and worked. Also I have found out that I paid too much for so so aircon "deep cleaning". Thank you for sharing knowledge with us. Really appreciate it
You're welcome please like and share 😊
Awesome video, great job. Now I understand fully how to do this. Thank you for making this video.
You're welcome and thank you. Let us know when you done your first clean 👍
Yes, a very clear guide with excellent videography. I have watched many other DIY videos and this is by far the most helpful!

Such a great video. Very well edited and well thought out. Each steps were provided and everything is so well executed. Thank you for the vid. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I forgot how to do this and your video explained it perfectly. Thanks for refreshing my memory.
Thank you for watching and hope you can share my video and supporting my channel. Thanks.
Great very detailed but simple to understand video,followed the instructions and cleaned my 3 split systems myself on Saturday.Would have cost me $180 to get someone to come out an do this instead.
$180? I was quoted over $500 here in Seattle.
Hey thank you guys, consider sending me a $5 Thanks you can find the Thanks button next to the Share button ❤❤
Excellent instruction video. You show attention to detail with great use of close-up photography. Well done!👍
Thank you for watching, subscribe and share ☺️
Fantastic! Thanks for the video sir. Best ever. Next time I will try to remove the blower, I'm using AUX, hope it's same screw system.
Hope for the best 👍
The best detailed tutorial about the cleaning process out of all similar videos I have watched on CZcams. I wish someone could do a tutorial like that for Sanyo KS1271.
Really thanks alot. My aircon have been leaking. Following the steps to clean, now aircon have not leak.
You're welcome! Please help me like and share thank you 😊
Finally someone who talk while cleaning, easier to understand thanks a lot!
Btw it is the same method with my Gree AC?
Thank you. I'm not sure about Gree. Try it and see if the screws are at the same places. Let us know.
Nice English explained the cleaning of indoor .split ac .generally all indoor have similar construction with minimum variation only .confident with proper tools it is to be carried out .I do my Lloyd ac generally clean use for last sixth year .another koshimo one tonner for last fifteen years less used but maintain both myself so far .thanks for your good demonstration for all new peoples .keep it up congratulations .
i really enjoyed watching you removing the 'LOLLEL BLOWEL. thank you for a great video.'
Haha 😄 my tongue was twisted. Thank you for watching, subscribe and share 😀
@@sosolomon22 I appreciate you taking the comment good heartedly. Don’t mean any disrespect. Really do appreciate your video. Good content.
Great video, gave me the confidence to access the unit and remove all of the mould. If you have a 2020 + model there is no need to remove front directors. They come out with the drain tray. Cabling is the problem, small wires to vane motors, awkward. Hope this helps others. Many thanks . Mike
Fantastic video mate, the detailed instructions and the picture in picture close ups are very helpful. Excellent work. 👍👌
Thanks for the clear and concise video (without much chatter). I had a hard time putting back the drain tray though (on the right side). A small token of thanks for your sharing.
Thank you for the $uper Thanks! I appreciate it 🙏
Thank you very much. It is very detailed. Previously I always had difficulties with the removal of the blower and got stuck. But will try again after seeing your video.
Thank you and glad it helped
Great video.
I'd love to see a similare good clean on the outdoor unit!
Great guide for removing the blower! The one thing that I do differently is to spray the vaporizer (cooler unit/ radiator) with a an AC disinfectant solution before putting the cover back on. It will then rinse itself with the condensation if you leave the unit on for 20-30 minutes. I also use the same solution for the filters after washing them.
Absolutely makes sense.
What brand do you use? Where do you buy it?
This video is so great! Thank you for this new self-sufficiency!
very good and thorough explanation and guide. i followed the video without any issues. Great job
well done.
Touching the part and then installing is most helpful to note the particular part.
great job
Very well done !!! Straight to the point. Thank You!
Thank you!
You should move the whole radiator a bit more out of the way and remove the fan under a smaller angle to avoid damaging the bearing. Also if you do not leave enough space, you could damage the fan while removing it. (Which you almost did in Your video)
If you live an environment where people are burning stuff, or just your air quality is really bad (polluted), you will get a sticky residue on the fan, and also inside the radiator blades, and the plastic walls. You shall remove those first, even by applying some de-greaser first and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. After that, i recommend some pressure wash, as regular brushing and soaking won't remove all the fungus and bacteria trap on those greasy deposits, so you will regrow them in the matter of weeks. (And you will have to redo the whole process again)
Never use base liquids on your aluminium radiator, or it will leak.
The "Spindle holder" is actually the rubber bushing of the sleeve / ball bearing on the fan, prior to re-installing it, you should check if it has enough OIL in it, otherwise it will run dry and damage the axle. (Also it will run noisy)
Best get go tutorial for even a kid can do this.. kudos to you bros.. 💪
11:07 15/5/2023..the day I’m gonna clean my aircon..Thanks for the diy video.
Thank you very much for the steps and using baking soda to clear the pipe. My unit has a third screw on the left side toward the top, where your’s has a red line marking on it
Thanks for the video, easy...fast...and well explained .
Boy, I needed your video yesterday!! I watched about 10 videos on cleaning my Mitsubishi.
Try as I might for a couple of hours, I couldn’t get the wheel out! This was my first cleaning attempt after one year’s use. You video is definitely the most detailed, best close-ups and best complete description! I had to clean the wheel the best as I could while it was still in place, but I will know how to do it next time, thanks to you!
I really appreciate it! It’s amazing and disgusting how dirty and slimy these things get. Great instructional video!
Thank you! Yes it's amazing how dirty the wheel can get. The satisfaction when you finally clean it out. Keep us posted when you get to remove the wheel next time.
Thank you-I’m figuring I’m going to have to do a good clean every 3-4 months to stay ahead of it. I’d better get good at it and a lot faster!
@@twinklesailhorse I'm sure you will get there!
Doesn’t it seem like the Mitsubishi dealer / installer should have mentioned that these need frequent deep cleaning? I’m doing this 3x’s + a year in Florida.
@@twinklesailhorsedid you figure out how to get the wheel out? I have a Mitsubishi as well and it’s stuck
This is an EXCELLENT video. Location of screws are all clearly visible. Best aircon washing video by far!
Thanks for the appreciation Bryan!
In my recent dismantle and wash, after I place everything back together, the aircon is very noisy…. Any idea why and how to fix it?
Air cond people at my place tends to overcharge so this helps so much TY !
