The air handler is inside your home or business, providing the circulation. This unit includes the blower, cooling elements, and filter. They are connected to the air ducts, distributing the cool air though out the building. It is important to change your filter regularly.
Compressors
The compressor squeezes the refrigerant, increasing the energy and temperature, making the fluid turn into a hot gas. The hot gas then passes into the condenser which helps the heat dissipate quickly. This unit is on the outside of your home. It is important to keep this unit clean, free from leaves, grass, and other debris.
Evaporator Coils
The coils pull heat out of the building’s air. Once the condenser converts the Freon into cool liquid, the evaporator coils allow the liquid to evaporate, which extracts heat from the air, lowering the temperature.
Thermostats
The thermostat acts as a remote for the air conditioning unit, delivering the exact room temperature you want.
Air Ducts
Air ducts help distribute the cool air among your home or business. If your ductwork is poorly planned or not installed very well, it can negate energy savings.
