Source for evaporator coils?

[oldiron]

The old under dash ac unit in my 72 ( sears I believe) has a leak. Is there a source for a replacement? It blew cold (46 degrees) for one day, it was amazing, I really want that back...lol.

There is a lot of under dash units available prob cheaper than trying to replace the coil

Or if you know it’s an evaporator coil might be able to leak check it and solder it

Not going to find a replacement. Just have it fixed. Any halfway decent A/C guy should be able to do it. If it is something really bad (severe corrosion?) it will be a custom evap, adapt from something else, get lucky and find a match, or just put a under dash in (they are not that expensive)

If it’s a copper tube coil. It’s repairable. If it’s aluminum. Hard to solder. Oil is the enemy in the tubes. Almost impossible. I do commercial refrigeration. Good luck.

Its a copper tube evap. I'll take it to a good shop tomorrow and see if it can be repaired. Thanks guys.

Update... I called my hvac buddy to ask about a local shop that could repair my leaky evap. He said "youre talkin' to the guy who can do that". He says he repairs them all the time and its no big deal. Should be ready tomorrow.
