Details on the Evaporator Plate Fin Product Line

The Evaporator Plate Fin line by Universal Air focuses on delivering effective heat transfer through a plate fin design.

Product Description and Application

The EV0157PFXC A/C evaporator core is engineered to replace the original evaporator in Ford Contour, Mercury Cougar, and Mercury Mystique models. It functions as a critical component in the vehicle’s air conditioning system by absorbing heat from the cabin air and allowing the refrigerant to evaporate, which cools the air before it is circulated inside the vehicle. This part is essential for maintaining comfortable interior temperatures and proper HVAC system performance.
