How can a air conditioner be used to heat a room?
Install it backwards. This does not work in very cold climates.
Explain how an air conditioner could also be used to heat a room?
Allah i don't know i could not find the answer
Which is better, heat pump or air conditioner?
well a heat pump is used to heat or cool water and air conditioning is used to cool a room or home. So it would really depend on what you are trying to heat or cool
Why an air conditioner is placed high up on the wall?
Heat rises, so placing the air conditioner high allows the unit to cool the hottest air that is at the top of the room.
Does an air conditioner blow out heat or blow out cold air?
An air conditioner blows out heat
Why does an air conditioner must cycle on and off to keep the room cooled to a preset temperature?
Seriously? Cold air blows out of the air conditioner when it's on, reducing the temperature of the room. When the temperature in the room reaches some preset value, the air conditioner shuts off to prevent the temperature from dropping any lower. Once the air conditioner is shut off, heat sources within the room including people, appliances, and heat entering through walls and windows causes the temperature in the room to increase. When this happens the air conditioner kicks on again to bring the temperature back down. It ain't rocket science.
Why must an air conditioner be installed with part of it outside the building?
Air conditioners cannot destroy heat, they can only move it from one location to a different location. If the air conditioner is moving heat from one part of a room to a different part of the room, that is not going to make the room any cooler (actually it will make the room hotter, since there is a certain amount of waste heat created by the process). If, however, you can move heat from a room to the outside of the building, then the room can be cooled.
How does a heat pump function?
The simple analogy I use when teaching HVAC classes to describe an "air-to-air Heat Pump" goes like this:Think of a window air conditioner. When it runs, it blows cold air into your room, and hot air outdoors. What it's actually doing is transferring the heat from your room to outside.What if you could turn the window air conditioner around in cold weather? Then it would blow the warm air that used to go outdoors into your room, while it "air conditioned" the outside.That's how a Heat Pump works. It doesn't physically move the components of the air conditioner around, but it reverses the direction of refrigerant flow so that it "air conditions" the outdoors while heating your house.The HVAC Veteran
Why is the humidity in the room when air conditioner is running?
Why is there humidity in the room when air conditioner is cooling? Room feels damp.
Is it dangerous to put a air conditioner in a room with no windows what happens if you do does it work the same?
If you are running a window unit in a closed room, you will actually heat the room up. The unit needs to be able to "move" the heat to the outside air.
What is geothermal air conditioning?
Geothermal air conditioning is a central cooling system that delivers cool air by pumping heat towards the ground. The difference between it, and an Air Conditioner, is that while an Air Conditioner uses a refrigeration cycle to de-humidify a room, a geothermal air conditioner takes advantage of the ground itself as a heat sink to pump the heat away from a home and into the ground.
Can Air conditioner exhaust be used as heater?
its called a heat pump
