Foam tape: seal and insulate
This 3 mm foam tape is perfect for creating a tight seal around pipes and panels while servicing your unit. It also helps maintain airflow efficiency once the job’s done.

- ✅ Seals gaps to stop cleaning water from leaking into internals
- ✅ Adds a layer of insulation for energy efficiency post-cleaning
Cork tape: stop drips and vibration
Cork tape is ideal for wrapping suction lines and preventing condensation drips. It also helps cushion parts during service or transport.
- ✅ Same size: 3mm thick x 50mm width x 9.14m
- ✅ Excellent for suction line insulation during coil cleans

Why use tape during aircon cleaning?
Both tapes protect sensitive parts of your system while you clean. Foam tape helps block overspray from coil cleaners, while cork tape prevents moisture from soaking insulation.
- ✅ Seal off electrical areas before applying cleaning solution
- ✅ Re-insulate lines after using concentrated coil cleaners
- ✅ Prevent ongoing condensation after deep cleaning jobs
