Automotive A/C Evaporator Replacement

As A/C systems are made smaller and more efficient, so are their components.

One of the components that has undergone a major size reduction over the years is the evaporator, located under the dashboard. This component is much like a radiator in design and is responsible for removing the heat and moisture from the cabin.

Evaporators can leak due to internal and external corrosion, and in this event they must be replaced. This type of repair can take anywhere from an hour or two, right up to ten hours, depending on the type of car and whether or not the dash needs to be removed to access the evaporator.

We are well equipped and experienced at replacing evaporators, which is a common cause of A/C problems.

Did you know?

The role of the evaporator in your A/C system is to (as the name suggests) evaporate refrigerant liquid to a gas, and in doing so actually removes heat from the air which is what gives us that crisp cool air inside the cabin.

Had my car’s air conditioning fully repaired at Mr Cool Pty Ltd, and it’s working perfectly! Afterward, I noticed a small wiper issue, and the team quickly inspected and fixed it. Their professionalism and attention to detail really stood out. Highly recommend for anyone who wants reliable service and quality repairs!

Prompt service and reasonable pricing. They managed to fix an issue with the AC on my Alfa that other's couldn't. Would thoroughly recommend them for any AC-related repairs for your car.

After a few false starts around the traps, Mr Cool was our final destination for very overdue and major a/c repair. Great service, will not hesitate in future ;)

Best service I've received in a long time. Mr Cool were absolutely faultless. Every aspect of my experience was excellent. I received an extremely fast, friendly and well priced quote (significantly lower than my first quote from Kia). I was able to get in for the repair almost immediately (after waiting well over a month to get in just for diagnosis from Kia). On top of all that, after inspection they called to say the job would cost less than they first quoted. So honest and reliable. If you need your car aircon sorted, don't waste your time going anywhere else. Thank you Mr Cool!
