What Is a Refrigerator Condenser?
A refrigerator condenser is one of the main operating components that make up the cooling system on a standard refrigerator. It consists of a series of copper tubes that overlap in a grid or coiling pattern. On most models, the refrigerator condenser is located at the back of the unit, though some may be installed on the bottom or along one side of the unit. While the size of the condenser can vary, it often covers at least half of the area of the refrigerator wall, and some even cover the entire wall of the unit.
