Evaporator coils are inside the
house. They are usually hidden away inside an air handler cabinet or
plenum, which may be further concealed inside a closet, attic, or
crawl space. Evaporator coils are not all that hard to clean,
just hard to find in most cases.

promise not to "pitch" you on replacing your perfectly good AC unit. |
