Types of Heating and Cooling Systems
� These days, mot air conditioning systems are central cooling systems. This involves supply and return ducts to move air from the unit to the inside of a home or residential building. Supply ducts are utilized to pour cold air into a room or home, and the return ducts collect the air that is in the room. This process is repeated until the room reaches the desired temperature. There are generally two types of cooking system: packaged units or split systems.
� Split systems are on the outside of a home or building or on the roof where the condenser and compressor are. The heat pump and evaporator is often positioned on the inside of the building. Packaging central cooling systems are the systems in which the evaporator, compressor and condenser are installed together and all positioned on the building’ s exterior. In the fall and winter, the systems use electric heat with electric coals. The air that is collected and heated or cooled travels down the ducts and ends up in the home or building. The benefits of a central air conditioning system include efficiency and less noise. These systems are also easy to manage.
� You should also know about VRF and VRV air conditioning systems. VRF stands for variable refrigerator flow and VRV is variable refrigerant volume. For the most part, these cooling systems are found in large commercial buildings like hotels, hospitals and office spaces. This type of system can cool large areas easily and are energy-efficient.
