How do heating and cooling systems work?
A. While heat pumps and air conditioners require the use of some different components in your heating and cooling system, they operate on the same basic principles. The job of the heat pump or air conditioner is to transport heat from one point to another. The “vehicle” your system uses to carry the heat is called refrigerant. While it’s keep you cool, your air conditioner or heat pump also works as an effective dehumidifier. During cooler weather, your heat pump reverses the process of the air conditioning system.
