Description
Product Overview
This air conditioning pipe is designed specifically for Citroën C4 and C4 Grand Picasso models as well as Peugeot 307 equipped with the 1.6 HDI engine. It plays a critical role in the vehicle’s climate system by connecting key components to facilitate the flow of refrigerant, ensuring efficient cooling performance inside the cabin.
Function and Importance
The air conditioning pipe serves as a durable conduit for refrigerant circulation between the AC compressor, condenser, evaporator, and other climate system elements. It maintains optimal pressure and flow without leaks, helping preserve cabin comfort during hot weather. Over time, exposure to heat, vibration, and mechanical stress can cause wear, cracks, or leaks leading to diminished AC performance or system failure.
Replacement Tips
When replacing the air conditioning pipe, it is crucial to verify compatibility by matching the product codes to avoid fitment issues. Removal involves depressurizing and evacuating the AC system, disconnecting the defective pipe, and installing the new one with proper sealing. Professionals recommend inspecting adjacent AC lines and components during the replacement to ensure system integrity and longevity.
