Should I replace the drier when servicing the A/C system?
Per the manufacturer, the drier should be replaced any time the system is opened or serviced, as a saturated desiccant bag becomes ineffective and can affect compressor warranty coverage.
Why can't the moisture just be flushed out instead?
The manufacturer notes that the contaminants and moisture captured by the desiccant cannot be removed by flushing, so replacing the drier is the intended way to address them.
