Keeping the cabin of your vehicle nice and cool with your auto air conditioning is accomplished in part by your Chevrolet Cavalier A/C condenser. You probably already know that your auto air conditioning uses refrigerant, usually Freon, to keep your vehicle’s interior cool, but did you know that the refrigerant cycle is very similar to the coolant cycle your engine uses to remove excess heat? Actually, your Cavalier A/C condenser assists your auto A/C not in blowing cold air through your vents, as you might suspect, but in removing heat from your vehicle cabin. The refrigerant is pumped in gaseous form into your cabin to absorb heat, and then it is returned to your engine bay, where it goes through a cycle that includes your A/C condenser.

You can find your Chevrolet Cavalier A/C condenser located near the front of your engine bay, usually in front of your radiator; and actually, it not only looks quite similar to your radiator, but it performs almost the same function. Once the heated refrigerant gas enters your Cavalier A/C condenser, the heat is radiated through a combination of increased surface area and moving air that either blows through your front grille as your vehicle is moving, or comes from your auxiliary fan.

As the refrigerant cools, it is transformed into a condensed liquid, which is then passed through an expansion valve en route to your cabin once again. As you can imagine, if your Chevrolet Cavalier A/C condenser is not working, you are not going to have any air conditioning, and it will likely seem that your vents are blowing out warm air on even the highest A/C setting.You can replace your Cavalier A/C condenser for less when you order from our online catalogue.
