What is a furnace with a horizontal heat exchanger called?
air handler
What does a heat exchanger fan do?
Dissipates the heat produced by the heat exchanger through convection and creates static and velocity pressure to distribute the hot air throughout the duct system.

Function of heat exchanger?
There are actually many types of plate heat exchangers, and the YOJO brand has introduced brazed plate heat exchangers and gasket plate heat exchangers. Today is the home of brazed heat exchangers.Brazed plate heat exchangers have no headers, tie rods or sealing gaskets, and the plates are brazed at a temperature of 1100 ° C. During the assembly stage, a piece of brazing material (usually copper, and nickel) is placed between the two plates, the package is compressed, and then baked for several hour.BPHE is more compact and lighter, and the brazing material has the functions of both washer and frame. The intersection between the corrugations of the two coupling plates forms a dense network of contact points, which impart pressure tightness and generate vortex flow, thereby improving heat exchange. In this way, even at low nominal input speeds, the turbulence of the fluid is high, and for low flow rates, the fluid flows from laminar to turbulent.
What is the purpose of a cold air return with boiler heat?
None. Probably the home was built for forced air and converted to boiler/baseboard heating.
What is a furnace with a horizontal heat exchanger called?

You have an electric forced air furnace and central air. why does the central air fan run when furnace comes on?
You must have a heat pump with electric auxilliary heat.
If a forced-air furnace heats a house until all the air is the same temperature as the air coming from the furnace then?
no heat would flow
If a forced air furnace heats a house until all the air is the same temperature as the air coming from the furnace then?
no heat would flow
Is boiler and furnace are same?
No, furnaces are forced air heat. Boilers are hot water heat.
What is a gas furnace heat exchanger?
The heat exchanger is the metal wall or tubing that is heated up when the burners are ignited. The inside of the heat exchanger allows the toxic flue gases produced from the burners to exhaust out through the furnace flue. The outside of the heat exchanger is where the cold air passes over, becomes warmed, and is blown throughout the ductwork of the home. The heat exchanger is the only wall separating the toxic flue gases from the supply air. If a crack develops in the heat exchanger, there is a potential for carbon monoxide gas to leak over to the supply side and be blown throughout your rooms. Carbon monoxide gas is odorless. The human senses will not detect its presence. Ron Ferrara- DHR Mechanical Services, Inc.
What is a forced air furnace?
This means there is a blower attached to the system that forces the heat into the home.
What is meant by roll out on a forced air furnace?
you can get an answer from someone else than me thank you It means that your burners are not adjusted correctly and the flame is rolling out of the heat exchanger. You need to have this fixed. Usually your locally utility company will give you an honest answer and what needs to be adjusted.
We have central heat and air. Does the furnace blower unit power on for the AC system too or is there a separate blower?
There should be only one blower to move the air. The unit will have a coil for cooling and a heat exchanger.
How does a forced air heating system work?
A forced air heating system uses a furnace to heat air, which is then distributed throughout the building via ductwork and vents.
What are some of the drawbacks of having a forced air furnace?
One of the drawbacks of a forced air furnace are the extreme dryness in your home. Also, they can make a noise when the heat is coming through the vents, if noise is an issue this will probably bother you until you become used to it.
How does a forced-air heating system work?
Room air is drawn into the return air ducts and proceeds to a squirlcage or "sirocco" fan. The air is then discharged into the furnace's heat exchanger where the hot flue gases from the fire are cooled by the air and the air is warmed. This warm air is then forced through the heating supply ducts and up through the warm air registers in each room. Forced air systems can also include a humidifier, to add moisture to the air, filters to clean the air. and special filters to remove odors or ultra-violet lamps to sanitize the air.
