AC Evaporator Coil Repair & Replacement in Westwood, MA

Your evaporator is one of three primary parts in your AC. Located inside the air handler or blower compartment, the evaporator coil houses the cold refrigerant pumped into it by the compressor. As the air from the blower fan circulates around the coil, the cold refrigerant neutralizes the heat from your home’s air.

Suburban HVAC has worked on just about every make and model of AC, especially in the Westwood, MA area. We want you to know that if your evaporator coil fails, it doesn’t necessarily mean your AC is unsalvageable.

Call us at 781-769-1515 or contact us online today and we’ll help you determine if you need evaporator coil repair, replacement, or a new AC unit. We always play it straight, and will never try to sell you on something you don’t need.

The Role of AC Evaporator Coils (and What Can Go Wrong)

The evaporator coil is one of the primary elements needed to get hot, stuffy air out of your home so that you and your family can stay cool and comfortable in the hot summer months. When an evaporator coil fails, there are a few common culprits, including:

  • Corrosion in the coil’s copper tubing due to water, air, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) reacting within your AC, causing evaporator coil leaks
  • Ice buildup on the evaporator coil, which can eventually block heat exchange and cause critical failure
  • A malfunction of the blower motor can put undue stress on the evaporator coil, preventing it from cooling
  • A clogged air filter can hinder heat exchange and introduce contaminants into the evaporator coil, effecting operation

A Suburban HVAC technician can help you diagnose your AC problem. Give us a ring at 781-769-1515 or contact us online today and we’ll conduct a thorough examination of your evaporator coil and all other AC components.
