I guess I'll be opening up the panels and get any debris or dust that
may have accumulated, but besides that, are there other procedures I
should perform before I cover up the central A/C until next summer?

Yes, it's already getting chilly here in Edmonton, Alberta. There's
even a frost warning out for overnight. So, I figure using the A/C
won't be necessary until next summer. Thanks.

A good rinsing with a solution of boraic acid, then muratic acid
cleans the coils very well along with a light belt sanding.
Dont thank me. I do this everyday. Thank someone like Stormy, DaNgER,
or one of the other baboons that squeezed in through the crack in the
skylight.

Oh, and another thing, are these acid solutions sold as ready to use,
or do I have to dilute the acid solution with water? If so, what
would be the recommended ratio? Thanks.
