Evaporator

The A/C/ evaporator, or evaporator core, works as a heat exchange within a vehicle’s engine. Most vehicles only have one evaporator, but larger vehicles, such as an SUV or van, may have two. The evaporator is located inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle, often times buried deep within the instrument panel. Vehicles that have two evaporators generally have the second located towards the rear of the vehicle behind a side panel, or above the rear passenger seats.
