HEAT EXCHANGER
Heat exchanger is part of the housing of
your furnace, and it absorbs heat and
warms cool air when your thermostat
activates your furnace and the heat
from combustion rises. All types of
furnaces have heat exchangers,
including electric units. A problem with
your heat exchanger could lead to a
carbon monoxide leak, which can cause
headaches, nausea, or even death

BLOWER MOTOR
After the air in your heat exchanger
reaches a preset temperature, an electric
blower motor powers a fan that forces the
warm air into your home’s ductwork,
through your air registers, and into all the
rooms in your home. Combustion ends
before the blower motor stops working,
so all the warm air in your heat
exchanger and your ductwork will get to
the rooms of your home before the motor
shuts down to wait for the next heating
cycle.

COMBUSTION CHAMBER
Oxygen must be available for proper
combustion, and your furnace adds air
to fuel inside a combustion chamber,
also called a burner. For a gas
furnace, the heating cycle starts when
a small amount of an air and gas
mixture enters the combustion
chamber. Then, a glow stick or pilot
light ignites the mixture and it burns in
a controlled fire as more gas and air
move into the burner.

 CONDENSER COIL
Your condenser coil or compressor is part of
your air conditioner or heat pump, and it’s
usually installed outside your home. A
condenser cools your home by releasing heat
into the outdoor air. This happens when it
compresses and condenses refrigerant from a
warm gas to a cold liquid. At the same time, a
fan blows air over the compressor to disperse
the heat and cool the refrigerant faster. Then,
your HVAC system sends the liquid
refrigerant through an aluminum or copper
line or tube to your evaporator coil.

 EVAPORATOR COIL
It is an important part of your air conditioner or
heat pump that’s inside your system’s indoor
air handler. Your HVAC system brings
refrigerant to a series of small nozzles or
expansion valves, and then these valves spray
the liquid refrigerant so that it can evaporate
from a liquid to a gas faster. This absorbs heat
and lowers the temperature of your home.
When the warm air touches the cold
evaporator coil, it causes condensation. This
lowers the humidity level in your home and
makes your indoor air feel cooler, saving
energy in summer. reallygreatsite.com

 THERMOSTAT
Thermostat has temperature sensors that decide
when your heater and air conditioner will turn on
and off, as well as controls for users. It’s
connected directly to your system through
special wires. The best place for a thermostat is
near the center of your home, away from stuffy
areas or drafts. Some heating and air
conditioning systems have more than one
thermostat, and each thermostat controls a
different zone. That way, you can save energy
by only heating or cooling occupied areas and all
the members of your household can choose the
temperature that’s most comfortable for them.
