HVAC

HVAC is an acronym that stands for the closely related functions - Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (AC) – working together to maintain indoor thermal comfort to residential and commercial buildings.

HEATING
The heating function of the HVAC system heats a building from a central location to multiple rooms. Air and water are heated with the combustion of fossil fuel in a furnace or boiler. Heated air is sent to various rooms through ductwork.

VENTILATION
The ventilation function of the HVAC system maintains acceptable indoor air quality by removing moisture, odors, smoke, dust and airborne bacteria. Ventilation is paramount for indoor air free of pollutants, and functions by means of fans and duct that continuously exchange air to the outside and distribute filtered and conditioned outdoor air within the building in a ventilation cycle.

AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning function of the HVAC system is responsible for indoor thermal comfort by stabilizing air temperature and humidity within a closed area. Through a refrigeration cycle, warm air is removed and cycled back as cooler air. This cycle is activated until your thermostat reaches the ideal temperature. Aside from cooling indoor air, ACs are equipped with filters that catch everyday dirt, dust, pollen, mold spores, and smoke, and let out clean air.
