Hi Debra, thanks for initiating contact. Yes. For most automotive a/c parts, including the a/c condenser, the warranty conditions typically require that the installation be performed by a certified professional. This is because a/c systems are sensitive and involve refrigerants that require proper handling, which is often regulated by law.
