Condenser units

A Condenser unit is the outdoor portion of the split system heat pump or AC with Heat. At times, it makes more sense to replace the entire outdoor unit (condenser unit) rather than just the compressor. And, may make better financial sense to replace the outdoor unit instead of the entire split system including the indoor portion. (furnace, air handler).  Replacing just the Condensing Unit (outdoor unit) has just became even more difficult. We will try, however, to match the outdoor unit to the existing indoor equipment whenever possible. The new SEER2 requirements, along with the new SEER Ratings will make it even more challenging than before 2023. 

Often times we can match the outdoor unit (410A Refrigerant) to the older attic, garage or closet units. 

The old R-22 FREON units cannot be matched any longer. This means most 20 year old units need a complete replacement. (R-22 units have not been made since 2014)

If you have the 410A refrigerant, you have a chance of matching up with new condenser units available.
