  1. The Difference Between Evaporator Coil & Condenser Coil HVAC units are a necessity in residential, commercial, and industrial setups. Whether it's for cooling or heating, two major components make it possible –evaporator and condenser. These elements facilitate heat transfer to convert cold atmosphere air to warm/hot and vice versa. So, if your HVAC unit needs one or both of these units, you must be able to distinguish at first. Here is a quick comparison between both important components. What is an evaporator coil? The part of your AC system that collects heat from the inside air is called the evaporator coil. It is frequently found inside your air handler or related to your furnace. Since it offers indoor cooling, the evaporator coil is also known as the "cold" coil. What is a condenser coil? Also known as the outside coil, a condenser coil is a component of a split-system air conditioner or heat pump's outdoor unit. The coil transfers heat from the refrigerant to the outside by changing the refrigerant from a gas to a liquid. The "condenser unit" is an enormous, square apparatus outside your home that houses the condenser coil for your air conditioner. How do evaporator and condenser coils work together? The refrigerant enters the evaporator coil via copper tubing attached to your exterior unit. It takes in the heat from the air blowing over it once it is inside. On the coils, moisture in the air condenses to form water, which drains into the drain pan. By removing this moisture, the temperature of the air blown into your space is lowered, improving the comfort level. The refrigerant, which is now heated, goes to the exterior unit. The heat is then released to the outside air as the refrigerant passes through the condenser coil. This cycle repeats when the refrigerant moves back inside the evaporator coil, also called one cooling cycle. Difference between evaporator and condenser coil The outdoor condenser coil is similar in design to the indoor evaporator coil. But the evaporator and condenser coils differ in functioning. The condenser coil emits heat into the external air while the evaporator coil absorbs heat from the indoor air. When refrigerant cycles through the coil and condenses to liquid, the heat energy collected from your home is quickly released as hot vapors. There is no distinction between the condenser and evaporator coils regarding maintenance and servicing. However, each coil's unique maintenance requirements are influenced by its features and geographic location. In a nutshell

  2. Overall, both are extremely important elements of an air conditioner or heat pump. The evaporator and condenser coils must be in optimum condition to work well together. However, if one or more of your HVAC unit's coils is broken, there is no need to worry since Discount Coil provides the best quality & affordable replacement coils.
