Frozen coil? Leaking refrigerant? We repair or replace evaporator coils—and tell you which one makes sense.
The evaporator coil is where your AC actually makes cold air. When it fails—frozen, leaking, clogged—nothing works right.

We inspect the coil, check for leaks, and figure out what's actually causing the problem.
Coil problems can look like other problems. AC not cooling could be the coil, could be low refrigerant, could be a dozen other things.We check: coil condition (visual inspection for damage, corrosion, dirt buildup), refrigerant pressures, airflow across the coil, metering device operation.If we suspect a leak, we do proper leak detection—electronic sniffers, UV dye if needed. We find where it's leaking, not just that it's leaking.Then we give you a clear picture of what's wrong and what your options are.
If cleaning or minor repair makes sense, we handle it properly.
Sometimes the coil just needs cleaning.Proper coil cleaning: Chemical cleaner, rinse, verify drainage is working. We do it carefully—evaporator coils have delicate fins that bend easily.Minor repairs: Small leaks in accessible spots can sometimes be brazed. Single tube damage can be isolated and repaired. We'll tell you if this makes sense for your situation.The honest answer: If your coil is corroded throughout, repairing one leak just means another one shows up soon. We'll tell you when repair is throwing good money after bad.
When replacement is the answer, we match the coil to your system and install it right.
Coil replacement is a real job. The coil has to match your system—tonnage, refrigerant type, airflow direction, physical dimensions.We source the right coil for your system. Remove the old one. Install the new one with proper connections. Pull a deep vacuum to remove moisture. Charge the system to spec.Coil replacement often makes sense when: multiple leaks from corrosion, coil is 15+ years old, system uses R-22 and you're already looking at expensive refrigerant.If you're replacing a coil on an old system, we'll talk about whether replacing the whole system makes more sense. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Your call.
We run the system, verify performance, and make sure you're cooling properly.
After any coil work—cleaning, repair, or replacement—we verify it's working.We run the system, check temperature drop across the coil, verify refrigerant pressures, confirm no leaks at new connections.You should feel the difference. Colder air, better airflow, a system that actually cycles off instead of running constantly.We clean up our mess and haul away the old equipment if we replaced it. You get documentation of what we did and what's covered.
We find the real problem, not just the symptom.
Repair if it makes sense. Replace if it doesn't. No games.
Right coil for your system. Not whatever's on the truck.
Vacuum, leak test, proper charge. No shortcuts.
We'll diagnose it and give you honest options.
