| Let us show you the little
bit of effort and cost that is really involved
in producing a compressor with new products
rather than "requalified" products. We are
listing an average 06E 6 Cylinder Carrier
compressor for a reference point to show our
illustration. The listed parts are what most
compressor companies put back into their
compressors as "requalified" or in our terms
"USED" parts. |

| The average
cost of an 06E 6 cylinder compressor is -
$2,550.00 divided into the cost of the parts
that should be new instead of used, the formula
looks like this: |
| |
166.00 divided by 2550.00 -
6.5% |
|
|
|
6.5% to totally
replace the most important parts inside your
next compressor. At American Compressor we will
not second guess rods, pistons, etc. How can we
know how long a rod has been turning inside the
last machine and how much more life it has
before failing. How can anyone tell if a
hairline crack is forming on a piston and when
it will fail. That is why we replace them with new
rods, pistons, etc rather than "requalified"
parts. That is why we consider ourselves a
reengineering company and not a "rebuilder or
remanufacturer" of compressors. |
|
We have seen a
serious decline in the warranty failure rate
since our insertion of new parts over the past
five years. |
