Title: strange looking compressor Post by: cohammer on April 18, 2012, 09:10:46 pm I have never looked at my v23 compressor before and was wondering what the proper name for this style compressor ? it cools very well and is from 1952 but was not sure why it looks so different.
Title: Re: strange looking compressor Post by: globalcompressors on April 18, 2012, 09:42:32 pm those are "cooling" fins around the top. if you notice, there is no condenser fan motor,
so there is no "cooling effect" from forced air. Title: Re: strange looking compressor Post by: collecture on April 18, 2012, 09:58:37 pm I think these were manufactured by Frigidaire?
