Do I need to have my refrigerant system evacuated before installing this?

Yes. Your AC system must be professionally drained and recharged by a certified technician before and after condenser installation. This requires EPA-licensed equipment and cannot be done at home.

Will this condenser work with my existing AC lines?

Factory refrigerant lines and fittings are compatible. You're reusing your current connections—no new hoses or adapters needed. Measure twice before disconnecting the old unit to confirm alignment.

What if the condenser arrives damaged?

Inspect the unit immediately upon delivery. Document damage with photos and contact support within 48 hours. Condensers are pressure vessels—structural damage or punctures require replacement, not repair.
