A correctly installed air conditioning system can be more efficient, operate more efficiently, and last longer.
- The air conditioning system air handler, including the evaporator coil and blower fan, is located indoors, usually in a dedicated Heating and A/C closet.
A central air conditioning system also includes a condenser coil and fan, and a compressor. A heat exchanger gets heat from the inside of the home and disperses it into the air. It is not advocated to venue the condenser in an attic or basement. The heat dispersed by the unit will radiate into the residing areas, reducing household cooling efficiency and raising operating costs. Furthermore, the indoor air volume is much smaller than outdoors, which will impact air flow into the coil. The heat flows more efficiently from a moderate zone into a cooler a single. As the condenser coil is designed to release compressed heat energy into the air, the heat convey process is most efficient in a cool, shaded location outdoors. As much as possible, the unit should be venued in the shade produced by the house. To disperse heat efficiently, the outdoor condenser of a condenser must have satisfactory air circulation. In order to ensure regular air intake, there should be at least three feet of space on all sides of the unit. To put it another way, the unit should be sufficiently separated from the wall of the home and from any thick vegetation. When the Heating and A/C unit is located in direct sunshine or without satisfactory air circulation, its compressor motor runs hotter, which generally shortens its life, but because the compressor is the most costly component in the system, early failure may require replacing the entire system.
