This is one of the most frequent asked questions.
A genuine part is an component that was installed in the compressor when the compressor was first manufactured. Genuine parts are more expensive than any other types of compressor parts because they carry the company logo. Keep in mind, that genuine parts are not necessarily better than OEM parts. We can give you recommendations on which parts to buy based on the quality and performance of the parts and not who made it.
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts are built by the company that initially made the parts for the compressor manufacturer. OEM parts are precisely the same as the part that came with your compressor. The difference is that it doesn’t carry the manufacturer’s logo. OEM parts are just as reliable as genuine parts, but you get them for a better value.
