Like all air conditioning systems in virtually every vehicle, the one in your Chevrolet C3500 uses a chemical coolant, or "refrigerant." This refrigerant is pumped through the system by the compressor, which is driven by an engine fan belt. Being a series of mechanical devices, an air conditioning system is subject to overheating and can even explode, or otherwise be damaged by extreme heat. The Chevrolet C3500 A/C Condenser acts a radiator/cooling device for the A/C system.
Refrigerant passes through the condenser, where it is cooled down by a cooling fan, the air which passing through the vehicle, or both. As its temperature is lowered, the refrigerant condenses into a pressurized liquid.
The refrigerant moves on into the evaporator, where it is heated to the boiling point (nowhere near the 212° required for water, so don't worry). In as a liquid, this refrigerant is able to absorb excess heat, and can carry it outside your Chevrolet C3500. The compressor then returns the refrigerant to the Chevrolet C3500 A/C Condenser, and the cycle starts all over. The Chevrolet C3500 A/C Condenser has two hoses - one on each end. Occasionally, a small particle gets inside the system by way of the grille and gets lodged inside one of the high-pressure coils, damaging the device.
