Air Conditioning can both Cool and Heat your home while filtering the air and removing humidity providing the required level of comfort, regardless of the weather conditions.

HEATING is provided economically by "reversing" the operation of the conditioner. Instead of expelling the hot air and circulating cool air it does the reverse - hence the term 'reverse cycle' air conditioning.

In colder climates you may select natural or LP gas to heat your home. This can be achieved using a Gas Ducted Unit.

There are various types of air conditioners, from the simple and inexpensive Room Air Conditioner to a fully Ducted System.

As every application is different you will need expert advice, which is available from your ACDA member.

When cooling, the air conditioner operation is similar to that of the home refrigerator. The indoor air circulating fan draws air into the conditioner through an air filter and over a cold coil (containing refrigerant), cooling the air before it is circulated back into the room.

In addition to being cooled, the air is dehumidified when moisture in the air condenses on the cold coil. This condensate is caught in a drip tray and drained away.

The refrigerant carries the heat absorbed by the cooling coil (evaporator) to the outdoor heating coil (condenser) via the compressor and expansion and reversing valves. The outdoor air circulating fan forces air over the hot condenser coils, cooling the refrigerant.
