What happens when the evaporator is clogged?

When the evaporator is clogged, it restricts airflow and reduces the heat exchange process, leading to inefficient cooling. This can cause the system to work harder to maintain the desired temperature, potentially resulting in increased energy consumption and wear on the components. Additionally, a clogged evaporator may lead to ice buildup, further impeding performance and possibly causing system failure if not addressed. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent such issues.
