What An HVAC System Is And How It Works? Via ForbesAdvisor
Somecool with a unit called a condenser, a.k.a. conventional air conditioning unit. Somewhat ironically, others cool with a device called a heat pump. They both function similarly in that they grab warm air from inside your home and move it outside. This is actually what lowers the indoor temperature.
The main difference between a heat pump and a condenser is that a heat pump is also involved in the act of heating your home —when you want to warm up the air inside your home a heat pump works in reverse, pulling warmer air from outside and moving it indoors. A condenser does the cooling only, meaning if you have one you’ll need to rely on your furnace alone for heating.
And as strange as it sounds, unless there is a leak in the receptacle that holds the coolant, you will never run out. But wait, isn’t coolant bad for the environment? If that coolant is Freon, the general consensus is yes. To that end, all AC units made for the past decade or so use a coolant called Puron instead of Freon.
