AIR HANDLERS & HIGH VELOCITY
Specialty cooling systems such as the Space Pak, Magic Pak or Unico cooling system. For attics or smaller spaces with special ventilation needs.
AIR CONDITIONERS / AC
Outdoor condensers for forced air cooling systems that use refrigerant and often a furnace blower to distribute cold air.
Understanding your Air Conditioner, Ductless Mini-Split or Home Cooling System
The typical home central air cooling system consists of an outdoor condenser unit with compressor-pressurized refrigerant lines that run into the building's furnace. On top of the furnace is an A coil or evaporator coil that the freon coolant runs into. The blower on the furnace uses the air ducts to distribute air over the chilled coil to distribute the air through the building. The refrigerant is then pumped back outside into the condensers, where an attached fan blows out the heated lines. This process can use valves and pumps, so it should be properly calibrated to ensure efficient operation.
Other systems have a similar process using refrigerant lines, but have vents or pipes, and alternate means (other than the furnace blower) for distributing the cold air throughout the building.

- Have you noticed that it seems to be warmer when the humidity is higher? Removing moisture from the air with a whole home dehumidifier can increase comfort when the air is too humid.
- Cold air drops, and hot air rises, right? Modifying your air return vents in the summer can be a useful trick for homes with the proper ventilation systems. Opening the supply vents on the higher levels during the warmer summer months is also a good idea so that the air conditioner is cooling the warmer air instead of the cooler air. Ensuring your home has proper insulation in the basement and attic also helps reduce energy loss.
