• Maintains proper refrigerant flow and pressure drop for efficient evaporator operation.
• Symptoms that may indicate replacement: poor or inconsistent cooling, uneven temperatures, or visible kinks/damage to the tube.
• Small-diameter tube is sensitive to bends and restrictions that can block refrigerant flow.
