An AC system has many components: compressor, condenser, receiver dryer, evaporator, and hoses. The compressor, the âheartâ of the carâs air conditioning system works like a pump taking refrigerant, (R-12 in older cars, R-134a in 1995 and newer cars) and pressurizing it, passing it along to the evaporator.
