What does a Condenser Do?

A Condenser does just that. In an Air Conditioning application, it condenses freon gas from a gas or low pressure state to a liquid or high pressure state. To make sure that compressor doesn’t overheat though, the condenser has some metal tubing usually going in a continuous loop called a coil. The heat transfers from the compressor into these coils. Once that happens, a fan motor with a fan blade sucks cool or outside air through these coils to decimate the heat from the coils and inherently off the compressor. Allowing the compressor to run more efficiently, improving longevity and performance.
