All,
I have a A/C cooling water pump that supplies two A/C units. One is located in
the stern of theboat. I live in theHouston area where the water is not muddy
and stuff grows in it like crazy. So I have to clean the strainer every week.
However, recently the water discharge for the rear A/C unit has all but stopped
flowing. I assume this means there is a plug in the system. I assume it is in
the heat exchanger on the A/C unit itself - butI am not sure of that.
Does anyone have any experience in this sort of thing? I have been putting
bleach tablets (the ones for swimming pools) in the strainer basket for a while
but it does not seem to have any effect.
Any thoughts or ideas on how to deal or fix this problem?
