− | + | the end of the low side is the compressor, which pressurizes the freon to higher pressure,then it flows to the CONDENSER. Gas under pressure, which now is in front of a fan which creates air flow, removes the heat from the compressed gas, which causes it to condense to a liquid, hence the term condenser. Liquid refrigerant flows down the liquid line to the orifice or restriction. | |
