How do we flush the A/C condenser?

Dude you want to flush the AC cendenser of a Honda car?

[faizalabdul]

ummmm. yes!

Well sude, its not really recomended from the Car council to flush the AC condenser in Honda brand. The only two brands Ford and GM are approved to flush the condenser. You gotta replace it.

You can use the same freon , know the inlet and out let , and better feed the freon from discharge towards the in take (reverse order) , so that u can expel things out , instead of pushing them more deeper.

hope this helps

having said that , the practical work is not as simple as it looks in writings. Do it all on your own risk , as one must be well experienced in handling Freon and gases.

use proper gears and tools , freon is not user friendly and can give you frost bite or can even blind some one.

Nitrogen can be used as well , that is a bit safer.

Flushing with gas is a waste of time. You never get everything out, especially if you're cleaning through the valves. The only real way to do it is to take everything apart and clean all the parts individually using a solvent cleaner like the one below and dry air. Ordinary compressor air is no good as it contains water, however air from a paint booth which is fitted with an air dryer would be fine. It's important to clean the system after changing a compressor. You wouldn't believe how many particles are introduced into the system from a dying compressor until you run solvent through and see the colour of it when it comes out again. Cleaning only one part such as the condenser is also a waste of time because as soon as you recharge the system and operate it, all the crap from the rest of the system will contaminate it again.

Hi all

Ofcourse flush chemicaical CLEANS well

The queation was condensor flushing  where amount and pressure of this bottle is not enough.

Same freon leaves no choice of contamination inside and have enough pressure which can knock every thing out . and a cylinder has enough freon .

This is what we do in industry how ever every one is free for their choices.
