Air conditioning evaporator
When you turn on the air conditioning in the car, a whole process starts in the
air conditioning system .
This process starts at the air conditioning compressor , where the refrigerant
is compressed and rises in temperature. The gas is then cooled in the
condensor on the basis of the supplied wind, which creates a liquid. This liquid is
filtered from dirt and moisture in the
air conditioning dryer and is eventually
transported to the air conditioning evaporator via the
expansion valve . The air
conditioning evaporator evaporates the refrigerant. The refrigerant is cooled
considerably during evaporation and can then be blown into the interior as cold
air.
When the air conditioning evaporator
has defects, you will no longer be able to enjoy cold air in the interior. The
advice is to replace the evaporator as soon as possible. It is very important
to have a properly functioning air conditioning system in your car. This way
you stay sharp during hot days and you can quickly clear fogged windows.
Air conditioning evaporator defective
A faulty air conditioning evaporator
can be very annoying and must therefore be solved as soon as possible. When the
evaporator is broken, you can notice a number of symptoms. A first symptom is a
lot of moisture in the interior. For example, you may notice that the windows
fog up faster. Another symptom is that the air from the fans is no longer
properly cold, or you can no longer control the temperature. A final symptom
that you may notice is foul or weird odors from the fans.
It can sometimes happen that the air
conditioning evaporator freezes. There is a lot of moisture in this part, which
means that it can sometimes freeze at cold temperatures. With a frozen
evaporator, the cold air can no longer be blown into the interior. Often this
problem is due to a full water drain.
Cleaning air conditioning evaporator
A defective air conditioning
evaporator is often caused by corrosion or dirt in the air conditioning system.
It is therefore recommended to clean the air conditioning evaporator annually.
This also applies to the other components in the air conditioning system. In
addition, it is important to replace the pollen filter annually to prevent
contamination of the air conditioning.
Replace air conditioning evaporator
Replacing an air conditioning
evaporator is a job that you need to schedule some time for. The evaporator is
located behind the dashboard. Often the entire dashboard will have to be
removed to replace the evaporator. In addition, the air conditioning will have
to be emptied, cleaned and refilled to complete the job. Would you rather leave
this to the garage? Then quite a few costs can be incurred because it is a
labour-intensive job. In this case, you can choose to purchase the parts
cheaply from Winparts. This way you save a lot of costs on material!
