When you need air conditioner repairs in Niles and the surrounding areas, it is helpful to understand how the system itself works:
1. Thermostat. The thermostat is the part of the system that controls when the unit switches on and off and determines the temperature setting for the space that is being heated or cooled.
2. Furnace. This part of the system is located in the attic, basement, or a specially made closet area and heats up the air that is pulled from outside, so it can be circulated throughout the indoor space.
3. Heat exchanger. This is the main component of the system that pulls in cool air, heats it, pushes it through the home and ensures enough warm air is used to reach the desired temperature during the winter months.
4. Evaporator coil. This component has the opposite job as the heat exchanger; it cools down the outside air to the correct temperature based on the thermostat setting.
5. Condensing unit. This is a complex part of the ac unit system that helps with cooling the refrigerant liquid used in the unit and is a big part of cooling the air when the cooling system kicks in.
6. Ductwork. These are the metal or plastic tubes that run throughout your home in the attic or basement and carry heated or cooled air throughout the home to all the various rooms.
7. Vents. These are the rectangle or circular metal grates located in the celling or occasionally in the floor where the heated or cooled air comes out after leaving the unit.
With so many parts to the system, there is a lot that can go wrong with your unit. When things go wrong and you are not getting the heating or cooling you need, calls the repair experts from Deljo Heating & Cooling to get it done for you! Follow us on twitter.
