How Does My Air Conditioner Work?
The general operations of your air conditioner is not unlike that of the refrigerator in your kitchen. Inside of your air conditioner is a component called a compressor, when the power to the unit is engaged the compressor beings to compress a gas refrigerant causing it to heat up and become pressurized. When the gas is fully pressurized and hot it them cycles through the condenser coils of the A/C unit where it starts to release heat and pressure. As the gas loses pressure and cools, it becomes a liquid. This cold liquid then works to cool the air blown over it by the A/C fan and thus the rooms in your home are cooled.
