← TechnologyWhich outcome arises when an HVAC system evaporator's frost layer becomes overly thick?
A)Decreased cooling capacity due to insulation✓
B)Increased compressor efficiency due to latent heat
C)Refrigerant overcharge indication due to pressure rise
D)System overheating due to condenser blockage
💡 Explanation
When a thick frost layer forms, thermal insulation occurs because frost impedes heat transfer from the air to the evaporator coil, reducing the system's ability to absorb heat. Therefore, cooling capacity deceases, rather than increased efficiency, refrigerant indications, or system overheating, which involve alternate failures.
