by the process of heat transfer.freon in air conditioner absorbs heat from air,as boiling point of freon is too low.thus air cools

What is an air exchanger on an air conditioner?

t where the hot air is taken in and cooled.


Will an air conditioner remove humidity too?

Yes, A/C units inherently remove moisture as the air is cooled. anonymous@oola.com


Why cooled air is thrown from top in air conditioner?

Not always true. There are upflow units, downflow units and horizontal side discharge units.


What is ductable air conditioner?

air conditioner maintain the humidity,temp,pressure,sound,air velocity,dust control. if we have to maintain more than 2-4 rooms at a time with one air conditioner then we are using this type of air conditioner. in this system one duct or line have to go through all rooms to flow the pure & cooled air to the rooms & one duct or line have to bring all corrosive air outside the rooms & flows into outwards. This type of conditioner called ductable air conditioner.


Does an air conditioner add humidity to a room?

The simple answer is no. What an air conditioner does, is cool air (obviously). When air is cooled however, it loses its ability to hold moisture. Therefore, the relative humidity (Water vapor/Capacity) of the air in the room will increase despite the fact that no moisture was added.


On a window air conditioner should water be discharging from the back?

Whether you get a few drops of water or a more or less constant flow depends on the humidity of the air... If the air being cooled is very humid (= wet, moist, damp) then, when it is cooled down to a lower temperature, that air won't be able to hold so much water. The air conditioner would get flooded if the water it has taken out of the air cannot be discharged.


Is it better to leave your air conditioning running all the time - or to switch it on and off as necessary?

Your air conditioner should have a built in thermostat and cycle as necessary. The air conditioner takes a little while to reach peak efficiency. Once the room is cooled it will cycle on and off as necessary. If you manually cycle the air conditioner, you are greatly reducing its efficiency.


What are the benefits of installing a central air conditioner?

There are many benefits to installing a central air conditioner. This will allow one to control the temperature of their house, and remain cool and comfortable during the summer months. It also has many benefits over a window mounted air conditioner, as central air allows each room in the house to be cooled equally.


What are the materials used to make an Air Conditioner today?

it is made up of iron, aluminum, metal coils on the inside, where air is cooled, and lastly it is made up of sheet metal.


Why are air conditioners place high on the wall and not on the ground?

Because the cool air from the air conditioner is denser than the warm air in the room and sinks. Placed high up the cool air will have time to get further from the air conditioner before it settles to the floor, allowing it to cool more of the room. Placed on the floor the cool air will mostly pool around the air conditioner and very little of the room will be cooled. Some air conditioner are actually placed relatively low in a room, but they have fans and baffles that blow the cold air upwards to the ceiling resulting in the same effect as placing the air conditioner high (maybe even better as the fan blows the cool air not only up to the ceiling but across it, possibly covering a larger volume of the room than cool air falling passively from an air conditioner placed high but without fans).

Why are air conditioners placed near the ceiling of the room?

Because of one simple science fact : “Cold air is heavier than warm air” When an air conditioner is at a certain height, it cools the air surrounding it, this cool air being heavier moves towards the floor of the room, meanwhile displacing the warm air already at the floor to the top. This warm air again gets cooled because of the air conditioner and the process repeats. This causes a uniform cooling of the room. Suppose if the air conditioner is at the bottom of the room, it cools the air surrounding it and this air stays at the bottom. The warm air towards the ceiling continues to stay warm for a very long time hence the cooling is not effective. It is for the same reason the freezer is at the top in a refrigerator.
