Changing you own home AC compressor or the whole condensing unit is not a typical do-it-your-self project. Many municipalities require a permit to do the work and there is a licence to purchase and handle refrigerant so we can protect our atmosphere.
You will also need the proper tools and equipment like a vacuum pump, gages and a torch along with the ability to silver solder.
