How does an air conditioner work?


Air conditioning systems cool your home by moving excessive indoor heat to outside your home where it is dispersed into the air. Air condition will also lower home humidity to further improve your comfort.
Household air is drawn down the return-air ducts to your furnace where it passes over a cold evaporator coil. The heat from the household air naturally moves to the cold coil and is then transported in refrigerant lines to the condenser unit outside. The fan in that unit pulls air through the hot condenser coil to dissipate the excess heat into the outdoor air.
Meanwhile, as the indoor air passes over the cold evaporator coil, moisture in that air condenses onto the coil and turns to a liquid. This liquid leaves via a drain, leaving the air returning to your home living spaces dryer and more comfortable.
