A method of manufacturing a heat exchanger includes processes of: arranging tubes (3,4) at a predetermined pitch on a set base; inserting fins (5) into spaces each defined between the tubes (3,4); compressing the tubes (3,4) and the fins (5) in the direction of arrangement thereof; mounting hollow headers (6,7) to longitudinal ends of the tubes (3,4), each header (6,7) having slits (58,59) engaged with a corresponding end of the tubes (3,4); and attaching end covers (127) to both ends of the headers (6,7), each cover (127) closing holes (125,126) which open at the corresponding end of the headers (6,7). <IMAGE> |
