Best Answer

Refrigerant is pumped by a compressor located in the out door section called the condensor to a evaporator coil as a liquid through a metering device.Your air handler or furnace blows air from your home across the evaporator where the liquid refrigerant expands into a gas and picks up the heat from the air across the coil.Then the gas is pumped to the condensor and is again condensed into a liquid through the means of cooling the gas usually by a fan pulling air across the coils of the outdoor unit.
