Function and Common Issues
The air conditioning compressor is essential for circulating refrigerant through the air conditioning system. Over time, compressors may fail due to mechanical wear, refrigerant leaks, or electrical issues, resulting in reduced cooling efficiency or system failure. It is essential to address any signs of compressor malfunction promptly to avoid further damage to the climate control system.
Replacing the compressor involves evacuating the refrigerant, disconnecting the faulty unit, and installing the new compressor, followed by recharging the system with the correct type and amount of refrigerant. Proper installation ensures optimal performance and longevity.
