 Though the heating system of your Chevy is vital in the winter to keep the windows free of frost, the air conditioning system is often thought of as a mere gas mileage drain. However, on the hottest summer days, it is great to have it available to use, and this means that routine maintenance should be performed on all of the parts of the system, including the Chevy AC condenser. Due to its location in front of the radiator, this part is often exposed to small pebbles, leaves, insects, and other road debris. All of this mess will eventually be caught in the small fins of the cooling array, reducing the efficiency of the Chevy AC condenser. It relies on the surface area provided by the fins to remove the heat from the coolant within, with the flow of air as the vehicle moves.
 When the fins become blocked, air will not be able to reach these areas, but the debris can be removed with a tool known as a fin comb. A great amount of care must be taken when cleaning the fins of the Chevy AC condenser and, for that matter, anytime that you are working on or around the part, because the fins are very thin and easily bent. If bent too far, they may cause a leak in the system. In addition, everyday corrosion may cause leaks. After several years, damage to the Chevy AC condenser may be bad enough that it will require a replacement, and you will find the correct one for your vehicle in our online catalog, at a very low price.
