Signs Your Evaporator Coil Is Damaged
A damaged evaporator coil can significantly affect both your comfort and your AC system’s performance.
-
Uneven CoolingYou might experience uneven cooling throughout your home, with some rooms feeling significantly warmer than others. This inconsistency often points to a problem with the coil’s ability to absorb heat evenly.
-
Weak AirflowAnother common sign is weak airflow coming from the vents. If the airflow feels reduced or weak, it could indicate a restricted or damaged coil hindering proper air circulation.
-
Water LeaksAdditionally, water leaks around your indoor unit can occur if the coil freezes and then thaws.
-
Running ConstantlyIf your system is running constantly without reaching the desired temperature, this could also be a sign of an evaporator coil issue.
What Is an Evaporator Coil?
In short, the evaporator coil is where the magic of cooling happens.
Located inside your air handler or furnace, it works with the outdoor unit (condenser) to cool your home. The evaporator coil absorbs heat and humidity from the air passing over it.
Refrigerant, a special chemical, flows through the coil. As warm indoor air is blown across the cold coil, the refrigerant absorbs the heat and evaporates from a liquid to a gas. This process cools the air, which is then circulated back into your home. The now-heated refrigerant travels back to the outdoor unit to release the absorbed heat.
Do I Need a New Evaporator Coil?
Determining whether you need a new evaporator coil depends on several factors. Minor issues, such as dirt buildup or small leaks, can often be resolved with professional cleaning or repairs. However, more extensive damage, such as significant corrosion, large leaks, or multiple leaks, may require a complete coil replacement.
The age of your AC system also plays a role. If your system is over 10–15 years old, replacing the evaporator coil might not be the most cost-effective solution. In such cases, replacing the entire cooling system might be a better long-term investment, as other components are likely nearing the end of their lifespan as well. We can assess your system and recommend the best course of action.
