đ Whatâs Lurking Inside Your Mini Split Might Be Scarier Than Any Ghost
This Halloween, forget haunted houses and horror movies.
The real terror might be hanging right on your wall:
Your ductless mini split.
You know, that sleek, quiet unit that keeps your space cool in summer and cozy in winter? Yeah, that one.
Weâve been deep cleaning mini split heads all month, and let us tell you⌠the things weâve pulled out would give Freddy Krueger nightmares.
Cobwebs. Spiders. Mold colonies.
Weâre talking the full microbiology textbook:
Mold spores, dust, yeast, bacteria â and whatever that black goo is.
And guess what?
Youâve been breathing that in. Every. Single. Day.
đ¨ Filters Arenât Enough (Not Even Close)
Most HVAC companies do one thing:
Change the filters.
Thatâs it.
But when it comes to mini splits, thatâs like brushing your teeth without flossing.
Or cleaning the bathroom by wiping the mirror and walking away.
Filters catch the big stuff.
The scary stuff? That lives deep inside â on coils, in condensate pans, and inside blower wheels. Thatâs where it grows. Spreads. And eventually⌠blows right into your living space.
đ Meet OctoClean⢠â Our Proprietary Deep Clean System
Weâre not just cleaning â weâre on a mission.
We studied with expert techs in Australia (they take their splits seriously Down Under), and combined their best tricks with our experience and microbiology background to create OctoClean⢠â Shelter Airâs exclusive mini split deep cleaning system.
Like our mascot Seraphina the Octopus, we get into every coil, crevice, and hidden biofilm-laden zone.
Itâs a deep clean for your lungs.
And yeah, itâs kind of badass.
If you can see dust or mold on the outside of your mini split?
Trust us â the inside is a full-on haunted house.
𧟠This Isnât Just About Your Home
This is vital for commercial spaces:
Doctor Offices â Where patients come to get better, not get sick
Dentists â Cleanings shouldnât come with a side of mold spores
Nail Salons â So your air is as clean as your polish
Restaurants & Delis â Weâve seen black sludge dripping above dinner tables (yep, barf)
If customers are breathing air from a dirty unit, itâs a health risk.
If employees are working in it all day, itâs an HR issue waiting to happen.
𧽠What Weâve Seen Will Make You Gag
Weâve pulled gallons of dark, sludgy water out of mini splits that hadnât been cleaned in years.
Weâve found fungal blooms growing behind plastic covers.
Weâve discovered spider nests, wasp carcasses, and things we canât even name.
Mini splits are incredible â efficient, whisper-quiet, and sleek.
But when they arenât cleaned properly?
They become petri dishes.
