DPF Cleaning Technology Comparison

Conventional Pulse Cleaning (Offered by others)

Attempts to clean 5000 cells at once. Center cells clean first, while outside cells get little cleaning. Cleaning stops when a path of least resistance is established, typically through the center of the filter only.

*Pricing is subject to change and can vary by location. Please contact your McCandless Truck Center location for current availability and pricing information. We ALWAYS recommend that if you're cleaning your DPF, you clean the DOC as well. If we clean your DPF, we will clean your DOC at the same time, for free. If the DOC is brought in by itself or separately, there will be a separate charge.

We also recommend that after installing or cleaning a DPF, make sure a regeneration is run, and temperatures are watched with a diagnostic tool to ensure the system is operating correctly. Temperature should always increase across the DOC (catalyst), decrease across the DPF surface, and reach approximately 1100 degrees on the DPF outlet.

PLEASE NOTE: If DPF or DOC are wet from fuel, oil, or coolant, they cannot be cleaned and must be replaced.
