Centralized Type Air Conditioner

The typical central air conditioning systemis a split system, with an outdoor air
conditioning, or "compressor bearing unit" and an indoor coil, which is usually
installed on top of the furnace in the home. Using electricity as its power source,
the compressor pumps refrigerant through the system to gather heat and moisture
from indoors and remove it from the home. Heat and moisture are removed from
the home when warm air from inside the home is blown over the cooled indoor coil.
