I have a 9 year old Goodman brand split system, with the air handler
in the atic crawl space. Can anyone tell me how to access the coil so
I can clean it?
There doesn't seem to be an access door that I can see.
Is it necessary to remove the ducts from the supply side or return
side to get to the coil?
The "good" people at Goodman, wouldn't talk to me for liability
reasons!

        Remove anything in the way. Then take the covers off.

        You think we can see one from our computers 1,000 miles away ?

        No, it's just that they think you're an asshole.

        Now, if you want the unit checked and cleaned - call a local
company, and PAY them to come do it.
