Hi all,

I had a tech come out and look at my AC unit mainly because humidity has been higher than normal in our house. For example, AC will be set to 70-71 and it’ll get there but humidity will still be around 60-63 depending on what we are doing in the house.

The house/ unit are about 8yrs old, I never really have had it serviced or checked before today.

Based on the readings I was told that the Evaporator coil needs to be replaced.

The tech opened the evaporator coil housing and noted it wasn’t dirty but it had a couple “dry spots” when you usually want it to be evenly condensing.

As I mentioned the house cools fine, it does take a little longer than it used to.

My question is, based on the readings does it make sense to replace the coil or should I have them recharge and see if we still get a drop?

Sorry about the bad picture, I wasn’t trying to be too obvious.

The outside temp at this time was around 80ish degrees. Thermostats set to 67 and house temp reading 71(on thermostat)
