How Does an AC Unit Work?

Air conditioners contain refrigerants. A fan blows warm air across the evaporator coils. Then, the cold, liquid refrigerant is sent to the coils where they absorb heat from the air. The heat is evaporated into gas.

Afterwards, the air inside is nice and chilly. As a bonus of the air conditioning process lowered the humidity because cool air cannot carry as much moisture as warm air.

The gaseous refrigerant now travels outside your home through a compressor and is transformed into a hotter, higher-pressure gas. This gas passes back through the condenser which turns it back into its liquid state as heat is radiated away. It is cooled down by air flowing across the condenser coil.

There are many reasons an evaporator coil might freeze. These reasons include a dirty air filter, or a dirty evaporator. Other causes attributed to a frozen evaporator coil is due to low refrigerant and a blocked air return grill.

Most of these problems can be prevented if you diligently maintain these coils. An evaporator coil needs plenty of air to flow over it, or it can freeze.

Refrigerant Leaks
