Ford F150 Evaporator And Heater Core Replacement

To best solve this truck's AC concerns, the evaporator core needed to be replaced. In many vehicles, like this one, the evaporator and heater cores are located inside the passenger compartment buried deep behind the instrument panel. Removing a dash to replace the necessary components, then reassembling the dash and all its attaching pieces takes skill, patience and finesse.

A heater core in a vehicle transfers heat from the engine to the cabin, but the A/C evaporator works in a reverse manner. It transfers warm air out of the vehicle and then cools it down sending it back through the cabin. There are similarities in the two components and each needs a series of heating and cooling elements to work properly.

As Buford Highschool Football Sponsors, Team Ryan Automotive had the honor of attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the brand-new Phillip Beard Stadium. It was a milestone moment not only for Buford City Schools but for the entire Buford community. The heat was no joke, with temperatures nearing 100 degrees. As Phillip Beard himself remarked: “It’s hot out here!” But the sun didn’t stop the celebration or the community pride from showing up in full force. Joined by Georgia's Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones, school board members, and other dignitaries, this event was as much about celebrating legacy as it was about looking ahead. “This is a place where we can bring our community together and celebrate our students,” said Dr. Amy Chafin, Buford’s new superintendent, during her remarks. “It’s about our athletes, our band, our cheerleaders - it’s about everyone.” ( AJC ) At Team Ryan Automotive, we remain committed to supporting our community, investing in it now and for the future. We were honored to be part of an event that truly brought Buford together. Serving all communities for Buford and Cumming, GA.
