I wanted to eliminate the chances of a blocked air conditioning unit due to a mould/bacteria build up.
I bought an aerosol of Forte Air Con Treatment.
Is this the right stuff?
Where do a spray it.

u spray it where the outside air comes in...usually under the bonnet by the windscreen...you may have to take out a filter 1st.
OR

turn on the air re-circulation in the car..turn on the a/c onto full
then spray the cleaner inside the car..usually by the footwell..and allow it to run for 10 minutes...make sure it is on RE-CIRCULATION

Doesn't regular use and the HJ treatment reduce the risk of this to a negligible level?

Regretfully the can has the phrase "use as directed" but thats it.

Neutradol, Banish etc will do the same thing and probably for a fraction of the cost.

There are a number of threads on this subject.

My Dad used one where you just left the aerosol in the footwell spraying (locked on) and left the blower on recirc. It made a right mess of the windows. Be aware of this.
