Normally it’s the startup outside, you know—that loud electric noise. If it’s the compressor making the noise, it could be something defective or a damaged compressor. It could also […]
What Is A Condenser Coil?
A: The condenser coil is a coil that’s located in the outdoor unit, which is the condenser unit. The condenser houses the compressor in the middle and it’s surrounded by a large coil. That really dictates the size of the condenser outside. The higher efficiency systems these days have huge condenser coils. You’ll notice that […]
What Is An Evaporator Coil?
A: The evaporator coil is the part of the system where heat is removed from the conditioned space. So you have air flowing through the return air ducts of your system and it runs through the coil. The compressor outside sends refrigerant in liquid form up to the evaporator coil where evaporation happens. It’s an […]
What Happens When Your Evaporator Coil Is Dirty?
A: When the evaporator coil is dirty, a couple of things happen. If debris gets in there, it’s going to reduce airflow and slow down the rate at which air flows thru the coil. So, it’s going to compromise cooling, humidity control. Eventually, it can overwork the compressor and the blower motor, causing them to […]
