ACDelco Professional Condensers are heat exchangers typically located in front of the engine radiator and are a high quality replacement for many vehicles on the road today. The condenser dissipates heat absorbed by the refrigerant from the evaporator and from the compressor to the outside air. Hot refrigerant gas passes through tubes, where heat is removed, causing it to turn into a liquid. The air flowing through the fins carries the heat away. These Professional, premium aftermarket replacement condensers are manufactured to meet your expectations for fit, form, and function. ?

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 1 - Header | Your vehicle's air conditioning (A/C) system should be routinely checked by a professional technician. This should occur approximately every 12 months, though you should check your owner's manual for more specific recommendations. Any related maintenance should be handled only by professionals. If you notice any of the following conditions, have your vehicle checked right away: |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 2 - Header | Your A/C system requires proper air flow to operate effectively. Poor air flow across the condenser will impact system performance and can increase refrigerant system pressure. Make sure air flow into your system is not obstructed by bugs, leaves, dirt, or other contaminates in between tune ups. |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 1 | Use the proper O-ring for the system |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 2 | Thoroughly clean all fittings and do not over torque beyond what is recommended |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 3 | Always lubricate O-rings with clean refrigerant oil |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 4 | Always replace sealing caps on service ports |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 5 | Recover refrigerant from the system when or if necessary |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 6 | Keep dirt and foreign material from all sealing surfaces |
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Header | Your A/C system is a sealed system, which includes different components connected by hoses, tubes, or lines. To keep the system leak free, inlet and outlet fittings have O-rings or seal washers, and the lines have leak free fittings. To help prevent leaks in the A/C System, follow these guidelines when servicing connections: |

Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 1 - Bullet 2 | Fittings or tubes saturated with refrigerant |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 1 - Bullet 3 | Signs of corrosion in the system |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 1 - Header | Reduced cooling capacity in your vehicle's cabin could be a sign that your condenser is worn or in need of maintenance. Signs that the cause of the A/C systems poor function is related to the condenser may include: |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 2 - Bullet 1 | Leaking vanes or tanks |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 2 - Bullet 2 | Debris clogged core |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 2 - Bullet 3 | Plugged internal passages |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 2 - Header | These signs of wear could be caused by: |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Bullet 1 | Worn or damaged service valves and caps |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Bullet 10 | A/C system component corrosion |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Bullet 11 | Missing service cap |

Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Bullet 7 | Worn or damaged evaporator |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Bullet 8 | Worn or damaged condenser |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Bullet 9 | Worn or damaged compressor seals |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Header | Your A/C system must be maintained with the correct level of refrigerant and appropriate pressure to work properly. An A/C system leak, which could result in incorrect fluid or pressure levels, could potentially harm or interfere with the performance of your A/C system. This would result in lack of or insufficient cooling performance. Common causes of A/C system leaks include: |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 4 - Bullet 1 | Use a leak detection dye, such as ACDelco Fluorescent Tracer Dye. Be sure to use the dye that is specified for use with your systems oil and refrigerant type. |
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 4 - Bullet 2 | Look for dirt or containment build up around hose or line connections. This could be a sign that oil, which would attract and hold contaminants, is leaking out of the connection. |
