Turn the vertical A-coil air conditioner off.
Locate the drip tray under the condenser coils and pull it out. On some models, you'll have to unfasten screws to remove the drip tray.
Put on rubber gloves and spray no-rinse aerosol alkaline evaporator coil cleaner on the drip tray. Let the cleaner work to break up the slime as long as recommended by the manufacturer.
Scrub the drip tray with a stiff-bristled brush to loosen the slime, then rinse with plain water. Wipe down and dry the drip tray with clean cloths.
Place two condensate-pan cleaner tablets in the drip tray and slide the drip tray back into place under the condenser coils.
Turn the vertical A-coil air conditioner back on and use as normal.
