This keeps the smell at bay by keeping your coils in tip-top shape.
If after all this the smell keeps returning, you may want to invest in a UV Light system to kill the bacteria on your coil, such as the UVPhotoMax system. Also, having high-quality media filters will keep a lot of bacteria from getting to the coils.
