new AC dryer

pl95677 on Fri August 01, 2008 11:03 AM User is offline

Should a new or replacement receiver/dryer be sealed from the factory? I just purchased a replacement AC dryer from a local parts store and it came in a box with only cheap plastic caps on the fittings. While these caps may prevent dirt from getting in, they are not vacuum tight and would not prevent air and moisture.

Should not be a problem as long as the caps were installed. Most driers are shipped with a 'slight' positive pressure...not a vacuum.
