well it condenses, hence the name condensor. but if you are having to "recharge" your system then basically you have a leak that either needs to be repaired or replace the unit.
for the techinical answer to your actual question, the refrigerant is condensed by means of removing heat from the refrigerant basically taking a high pressure high temperature gas and condensing it into a high pressure liquid. I'm guessing that you are referring to having to call a service company to recharge your unit on a regular basis, if that is the case you will like I said need to have the leak repaired (depending on the age of the unit) or purchase a new system (which if your unit is more that 10-15 years old that is what I would recommend.)
my experience is in the HVAC/R field (commercial refrigeration) not the residential stuff that sears hires crackeads off the street to repair.
What else can I help you with?
How far can a freon compressor can be away from the condenser coils?
The distance between a freon compressor and the condenser coils can vary depending on the specific system design and requirements. In general, it is best to keep the compressor as close to the condenser coils as possible to minimize refrigerant line length and potential energy losses. However, it is common for the compressor to be located within a few feet of the condenser coils in most residential and commercial HVAC systems.
What is a condenser named after a scientist?
Liebig condenser, Vigreaux column, Snyder column, West condenser, Allihn condenser, Graham condenser, Dimroth condenser, Friedrichs condenser. There are no shortage of these!
What happens when freon is heated?
When freon is heated, it undergoes a phase change from a liquid to a gas. This change in state allows it to absorb heat from the surrounding environment, making it an effective refrigerant. Heating freon too much can cause it to decompose into potentially harmful substances.
What happens to a refrigerant heat in the condenser?
In the condenser, the refrigerant gives off heat to the surroundings as it changes from a high-pressure gas to a high-pressure liquid. This heat transfer causes the refrigerant to condense and release the heat energy it absorbed from inside the building, helping to cool down and maintain the desired temperature in the space.
If 10 lb of water passes through the condenser with an entering temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit the temperature of the water leaving the condenser is what?
The temperature of the water leaving the condenser would depend on the amount of heat removed from the water in the condenser. Without this information, it is not possible to accurately determine the temperature of the water leaving the condenser.
What happens when a condenser goes bad?
It could develop a leak and empty the freon from the ac system.
What would be a reasonable charge to top up freon on an airconiditioning unit?
Service call freon check it out for clogged condenser $100.00
How do you replace the ac condenser on a FJ80 Land Cruiser?
The freon needs to be removed from the system and the pressure released. The condenser can then be removed and replaced, along with new o rings. Then the system needs a vacuum pulled and the new freon can be put in.
How do you repair a condenser that has a whole in it and is leaking freon?
You will be better off replacing it that trying to repair it.
Can you purchase r-22 condenser without a cfc certification?
No you can't purchase a condenser with out a certification. If the condenser did not have freon in them you might be able to but most all condensers come pre charged. you must have a epa license to purchase freon and even if you didn't have any education on air conditioning. what good would it do because the amount of freon in a condeser is not the exact amount needed in most cases. the system still needs more freon then what is provided...answered by kelly Chapman of mayfield, KY
How much freon does a 2 ton unit hold?
I was told 3 to 6 pds of freon, told it depended on the length of the copper lines between the condenser and the airhandler.

Air conditioner blowing hot air have already added freon what could be the problem?
bad condenser
How do install a ac condenser on your 96 neon?
Remove the freon from the system with a reclaiming machine. With the system empty, disconnect the lines from the condenser and bolt in the new one. use new o rings as well. Pull an entire system vacuum, then refill the AC unit with freon.
Where is the A.C. condenser drain located at and how do you get to it for clean-out on an 2005 ford F 150?
There is no drain on an AC condenser it is a closed pressurised system. To drain it you have to hook up a machine that sucks the freon out.
If the condenser motor runs but the compressor will not run what would check in most cases?
check to see if your lowon freon
