  • Desiccant bag kit with plug: Supplies a replacement filter drier desiccant bag together with a plug.
  • Filters the system: The filter drier removes moisture and contaminants from the air conditioning system. Four Seasons notes that flushing cannot remove these contaminants, which is why it calls replacing the drier essential.
  • Moisture absorption: The desiccant bag absorbs moisture in the system. In a leaking or 'open' system the bag can become saturated within a few hours, and a saturated bag leaves the filter drier ineffective.
  • Replace at every service: Four Seasons states the filter drier must be replaced anytime the system is serviced. Replacement is also required to validate its compressor warranty.

Four Seasons brings more than 50 years of mobile A/C experience to its accumulator and filter drier line. The desiccant may need replacing if the A/C system has leaked or been opened for repair, or before the system is recharged after a major component such as the compressor is replaced. If moisture in the system is causing reduced cooling, a fresh desiccant element helps absorb it. Diagnose the cause of any cooling problem before replacing parts.
