Filters the system: Removes moisture and contaminants from the air conditioning system — debris that flushing alone cannot clear, which is why replacing the accumulator/filter drier is essential.
Desiccant absorption: A desiccant bag absorbs moisture in the system; a leaking or open system can saturate the bag within a few hours, so a fresh unit is important during service.
Leak-free build: Quality welds are designed for a durable, leak-free unit, with high-quality desiccant for appropriate absorption.
Install-ready: Necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included for the installation.

Backed by Four Seasons' mobile A/C experience, this accumulator is engineered and tested for long-lasting operation. Replacing the accumulator/filter drier is required to validate compressor warranty and should be done anytime the system is opened for service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the A/C accumulator do?

It acts as a filter, removing moisture and contaminants from the air conditioning system using an internal desiccant bag — contaminants that cannot be cleared by flushing alone.

Which vehicles does the 33173 fit?

It's a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1987-1991 Chevrolet Beretta and Corsica and 1989 Buick Century. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

Are gaskets and seals included?

Yes. The necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included to help with installation.

Why should I replace the accumulator when servicing the A/C?

A leaking or open system can saturate the desiccant bag within a few hours, making the unit ineffective. Replacement is also required to validate the compressor warranty.

How does the desiccant remove moisture?

Moisture in the system is absorbed through a desiccant bag inside the accumulator. Once the bag becomes saturated, the accumulator can no longer absorb moisture effectively.
