Buying a used AC condenser: what to check

  1. Inspect fins for road-debris damage across the lower third, the usual impact zone.
  2. Confirm the refrigerant type and fitting style match your system.
  3. Bent inlet lines are common in removal; check photos closely.
  4. Replace the receiver-drier at the same time. It's cheap and protects the system.
