What This Condenser Fits
This is the condenser core that mounts up front on 2018+ Cascadias, ahead of the radiator, and it's built to the tube-and-fin spec Freightliner spec'd for that cab and cooling package. It's not a universal core — the mounting tabs, inlet/outlet fitting locations, and core dimensions are set up to bolt into the Cascadia's front-end structure without you having to fabricate brackets.
Cascadias went through some changes in cooling packages over the model years, so before you order, pull the number off your old condenser or run your VIN. A22-72870-000 covers a wide swath of 2018-and-up trucks but 'Cascadia' isn't one fixed part — Freightliner has more than one condenser depending on engine and spec.
If your old core is A22-72870-000 or one of the crosses in the table below, you're in the right spot. If it's a different Freightliner number, don't guess — call it in.
How the Cross-Reference Numbers Line Up
The aftermarket brands in the table — Truck Air, Omega, Phoenix Mobile Air, Road Choice, UAC, Alliance — all make a condenser that cross-references to A22-72870-000 because they're building to the same core dimensions, fitting sizes, and mounting points Freightliner used. That's why a Truck Air 04-0628 or a UAC 22173PFC will interchange with the factory part.
Where you want to slow down is fitting size and O-ring seal type. Condensers use different port sizes and seal configurations depending on refrigerant system generation, and a core that's dimensionally right but has the wrong fitting will leak on you the first hot day. Also check that the mounting tab pattern matches — some Cascadia condensers have subtle differences in bracket location between model years.
Rule of thumb: match the number off your old core, not just 'it's a Cascadia so it'll work.' If the old part is too far gone to read a number, VIN lookup is the fallback — give us the VIN and we'll pull the right one.

Frequently asked questions
Does A22-72870-000 fit my 2019 Cascadia?
Probably, but confirm before you order. Pull the number off the condenser currently on the truck, or give us the VIN — Cascadias had a few cooling package variations across 2018+ and we want to get you the right core the first time, not the second.
Is this the same as the UAC 22173PFC?
They cross-reference to the same application — UAC builds their 22173PFC to the same fit as A22-72870-000. Same footprint, same fitting locations. Still worth checking your old part's number against the table since running changes happen.
What's actually different between all these brands if they all cross to the same number?
Mostly core construction quality and fin density — some are heavier-duty than others. Fit-wise they're built to the same spec, which is why they interchange, but if you want specifics on build quality for a given brand, ask us before you buy and we'll tell you straight.
