- Central Air-Conditioning
Developed in the 1960s, central air conditioning or central AC is the most common type of whole-home HVAC system used in the United States today. A central AC system’s job is to cool air in a central location and distribute it evenly throughout a home or other multi-room space. This centralization eliminates the complications of cooling each space separately while maximizing efficiency and comfort.

- Refrigerant
Refrigerant is the working fluid used in air conditioners, refrigeration, and heat pump systems. It is a chemical compound that changes temperature as it transitions between liquid and gas form – cooling as it vaporizes, and heating up as it condenses. It is this property that facilitated a system’s ability to heat and cool.

- Refrigerant Lines
- Two copper lines that connect the outdoor air conditioner or heat pump to the indoor evaporator coil.
