At Bay Metal part corrosion failure in air conditioners can be a costly problem. Until recently, contractors have had little ammunition to combat the problem. Now they can apply a “sacrificial anode” in the form of a Corrosion Grenade from A/C Zincs Inc.
The grenade fastens to the suction line of any air conditioner to slow corrosion of all nearby metal parts. The 100% zinc grenade will corrode instead of expensive air conditioning parts like aluminum fins, copper piping and galvanized steel.
