Detailed Product Description

The TYC 4224 A/C condenser is engineered with a parallel flow condenser (PFC) design, which improves heat dissipation and airflow efficiency compared to traditional tube-and-fin condensers. Its core size of 24 1/2" by 17" by 5/8" provides ample surface area to cool refrigerant effectively. The 5mm fin height and 0.63-inch core thickness contribute to optimal thermal exchange, ensuring your vehicle's air conditioning system maintains proper operating temperatures.

This condenser includes a receiver/drier component, which is essential for removing moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant, helping to protect the A/C system from corrosion and damage. The inlet and outlet ports both measure 7/16 inches in diameter, matching OEM specifications for a direct fit installation.

• 2014-2019 Cadillac CTS with heavy-duty cooling and TOC
• 2016-2021 Chevrolet Camaro with standard duty cooling and TOC

Common Issues Addressed by This A/C Condenser

• Reduced cooling efficiency due to clogged or damaged condenser fins

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the vehicle’s A/C system is properly evacuated and recharged by a certified technician after condenser replacement.
