How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before opening the coil cabinet. Refrigerant leaks must be handled by a licensed technician.

  • Step 1 – Look for oil stains: Inspect the coil and connections for oily residue, a sign of refrigerant leaks.
  • Step 2 – Check condensate management: Ensure the drain pan and line are clear so water does not sit against the coil.
  • Step 3 – Technician repair: A pro must confirm the leak, then either repair small accessible leaks or replace the Heil evaporator coil assembly and recharge the system.
