How Does a Car’s AC System Work? To keep your vehicle cool, your car's air conditioning system uses a refrigerant to cool and dehumidify the air. Today’s vehicles have very specific climate controls that allow you to set the temperature exactly where you need it to stay comfortable. To accomplish this task, the AC system uses these components: Compressor – The compressor compresses the vapor refrigerant, putting it under high pressure and sending it to the condenser. Condenser – The condenser sits right in front of the radiator. It takes the high-pressure refrigerant from the compressor and removes heat from it, cooling it down into a liquid. Receiver – The receiver holds the refrigerant while it waits to move into the evaporator. It also filters the refrigerant to remove any moisture. Evaporator – The cold refrigerant from the receiver moves through a valve into the evaporator. The hot air from the cabin blows past the evaporator core, where the ref...
