The receiver drier filters the refrigerant, using a desiccant bag to absorb moisture and trap contaminants that flushing alone cannot remove — which is why it should be replaced whenever the system is opened or serviced.
Because a leaking or open system can saturate the desiccant bag within a few hours, replacing the drier helps restore proper filtering and is commonly required to validate compressor warranty coverage when the system is serviced.
