Auto AC Air Conditioning 101 – PART 1

Add comments

In general, a “neighborhood” mechanic understands how the car engine works and by extension, the role a radiator, a water pump, or an oxygen sensor. What I am noticing is a car’s ac system is not general car knowledge. So here is part one of a series on car air conditioning.

This time around, I will keep it simple and answer the following question – what is auto ac?

Auto air conditioning is a combination of the following 7 components. I will go over each one in greater detail in subsequent posts.

1. AC Compressor

2. AC Condenser

3. Orifice Tube

4. AC Evaporator

5. AC Receiver / Drier

6. AC Lines & Hoses

7. AC Blower Motor
