Hi, I went to Mang Danny earlier. He said the problem of my AC is the evaporator. It's around 3.7k + 2.5k labor. Ok na ba yun?

I also went to P.I. car aircon in retiro and Frigid zone kamias, ang sabi nila cleaning daw muna then check if evaporator problem. Same sila sinabi. hehe.

What's the exact problem ng evap mo?
And same price ba silang lahat?

Take note that AC cleaning is around 4.5-5.5k. If makita nila na may problem ang evap mo, youll pay the new evap plus labor on top of cleaning.

If i were you, ill take mang danny's advice and to replace the evap for the same price of AC cleaning.

I had a very similar scenario with frigid zone last year but i went thru with them na rin since nandun na ang kotse and it also needed general AC cleaning. Maganda rin naman gawa nila. Paid 14k total iirc

Di niya sinabi exactly pero parang may pinakita siya na evaporator tas may medyo yellow-ish. Sabi niya parang ganun daw nangyari sakin. So he advised na replaced evaporator na

Btw, laminated daw yung evaporator na ipapalit. Pag ba laminated, hindi original? Tama po ba?

Nope. Pinka cheap na kay mang danny. Sa PI car aircon, he quoted me na 3.8k cleaning tas pag sira daw evaporator, di pa niya masabi how much yung evaporator kasi 1st time nila mag handle ng almera.

Frigid zone naman, 3.5k cleaning + labor then 5.5k for the evaporator.

TIA.

Tama na 3.5k cleaning sa frigidzone since single ac lang almera. Had my starex done with dual ac kaya mas mahal.
Super lamig ng AC til now naman.

I see. Should I just let my evaporator replaced? kesa cleaning muna noh?

Last question po mga sir. Ano po ba mas ok?

Laminated na evaporator? or yung mga OEM na evaporator? ano po ba differences nila?

May nag bebenta kasi sakin na evaporator na parang OEM daw or class A. di ko alam which is which.

TIA sa sasagot po

replace the evaporator only if it needs replacement (i.e., butas!). otherwise, it'd be a waste of money to do so.
with or without new evaporator, they'd still clean the rest of the aircon system for the same "cleaning" price, right?

laminated or serpentine.
even if they seem to have the same dimensions and can frequently be interchanged, they look different because they were designed different.
either can be OEM.
i recommend you follow the original.

i once had my serpentine (very expensive!) in-advertently replaced by laminated (much cheaper).
the resulting coldness was unripe.. hanging... (hilaw... bitin..).
after a week of suffering, i went back and had the original serpentine replacement. after that, the coldness was factory spec again.

btw, "...yellow-ish..." sounds like a leak. and while it is still possible to have it fixed, it takes special equipment and training, to do so.
