What it is
The Vaillant 0020174497 is an 8 kW evaporator for the Arotherm VWL 85/2 A 230V air source heat pump. The evaporator is the coil that absorbs heat from the outside air into the refrigerant circuit, so it sits at the centre of the unit's heat collection. It is supplied as a single component.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Heating output drops and the unit struggles to reach flow temperature in cold weather
- Heavy frost or ice builds on the outdoor coil and does not clear during a defrost cycle
- Visible damage, corrosion or crushed fins across the evaporator coil
- Refrigerant loss traced to the evaporator, with low pressure or related fault codes logged
- The outdoor unit runs but delivers little or no heat to the system
Before you order
- Confirm the appliance is a Vaillant Arotherm VWL 85/2 A 230V, as listed above
- Check the existing part number against the appliance's parts list before ordering
- Verify the fault has been traced to the evaporator rather than the wider refrigerant circuit
- Refrigerant work must be carried out by a competent, appropriately certified engineer
