Letb s take a look at just a handful of air conditioners that you can get for your home.
- Central air:B As one of the most popular ACs in the country, the central air is well known for its sturdy performance. It is a b splitb system, which means that it has an outdoor compressor/condenser and an indoor evaporator/air handler. The outdoor unit is responsible for thermal dissipation and the indoor unit for the cooling and cool air distribution. This system requires ductwork to extract warm indoor air from your home and to distribute the cool after it has gone through the air handler.
- Heat pump:B A heat pump works just like an air conditioner, but it has one major distinction that sets it apart. It can also be used to heat your home during the colder months. It has a reversing valve that allows it to reverse the refrigerant cycle, so that the thermal energy of even colder air can be used to heat your home.
- Ductless mini split:B As its name suggests, the ductless mini split doesnb t use ducts to distribute cool air into your home, but rather its indoor unit sits directly in the living space. It has a sleek and compact profile that typically suspends from the ceiling or sits high on the wall. It connects to the outdoor unit by means of a set of drainage, electrical and refrigerant lines. It is highly energy efficient due to its lack of ductwork.
