What else can I help you with?
Why is your central air conditioner unit outside but you central heating unit inside usuially in yer basement?
The outdoor portion of the central ac unit is what gives up the heat from indoors, so it has to be outside. For a more thorough explanation see the question: How does air conditioning work.
Will central heat continues to work if gas disconnected?
If the gas supply to a central heating system is disconnected, the system will not function properly if it relies on gas for heat generation. Most traditional central heating systems, such as gas furnaces, require a continuous gas supply to produce heat. However, if the system has an alternative heat source, like electric heat, it may still operate. It's essential to check the specific type of heating system in use to determine its functionality without gas.
Is it better to have central heating on continuously rather than on and off at morning and night?
It's better to set it at a low temperature if you're not at home and at night. Then, it doesn't have to work so hard to heat the house.
How does a coil boiler generally work?
Coil boilers work by having many steel or copper pipes surrounding the area to be heated, these pipes then have extremely hot steam running through them creating the boiling temperatures.
Will gas furnace still work if central cooling air conditioner is taken out?
yes.
Will I need a plumber to help with central heating repair?
Probably not as plumbers are not usually certified in heating systems. You need a HVAC Technician for this type of work. It depends on what kind of system you have. State requirements vary, but plumbers are usually needed in matters regarding boilers, hot water heaters, etc. Then a state inspector comes out to verify that the work is done properly. Whomever you hire to do the repairs will be aware of these requirements.
How does a low pressure boiler work?
A low-pressure boiler works by generating steam at a pressure lower than 15 psi (pounds per square inch). Water is heated in the boiler and turns into steam, which is then used for various applications such as heating or powering machinery. Low-pressure boilers are commonly used in buildings for heating systems and hot water supply.
How steam boilers work?
Steam boilers work by boiling water to generate steam. The steam then is used to heat the engine.
Does central heating work better than an air condition unit?
Depending on what situation it is. If it is a small house central heating works better, if it is a big house then air conditioning works better.
What are the differences between high pressure and low pressure boilers?
High pressure boilers operate at pressures above 15 psi, while low pressure boilers operate at pressures below 15 psi. High pressure boilers typically require more maintenance and inspection due to the higher pressures involved, while low pressure boilers are generally simpler and less expensive to maintain. Additionally, high pressure boilers are typically used in industrial applications where higher steam temperatures are required, while low pressure boilers are commonly used for heating and residential purposes.
How to Save Money on Central Heating Costs?
Due to the rising costs of oil, most people are struggling to deal with their rising heating and cooling prices. While central heating prices are much higher than they have been in the past, there are plenty of ways to reduce your central heating costs. One of the best ways to reduce your central heating costs would be to get a new furnace. Old furnaces tend to have much lower efficiency than a new one does. Because of this, if you switch to a new furnace, your furnace will need to work much less to keep your home warm. This will then reduce your central heating costs.
An enclosed vessel in which water is heated and circulated either as hot water or as steam for heating or power?
This is a description of a boiler. Boilers are used to heat water and generate steam for various purposes such as heating buildings or generating power in industries. They work by heating water to produce either hot water or steam for distribution to different applications.
What machine produce heat?
Heating appliances like furnaces, boilers, and electric heaters are machines that produce heat. These devices work by converting energy into heat through various methods such as combustion, electric resistance, or heat pumps.
Are all water tube boilers suspended from overhead or set on columns to take care of expansion and contraction?
No. Most, like Stirling, B&W and Heine boilers are suspended from steel work with cleats or U-bolts, however some designs are not suspended. A small vertical water tube boiler could have been mounted on a base with the expansion from heating moving upwards. A Clayton steam generator is a coiled boiler mounted on a base. Robert's or Almy marine boilers are mounted on bases. Automotive water tube boilers were mounted on automotive frames.
Does the fan outside on the unit have to work for the central heating unit?
is it really run ning or is it possible that you have a heat pump system and it is the heating portion of the system operating?
Cost of oil fired boilers?
Oil fired boilers will run at least $2000 up to $7500. It really depends on how much work you are willing and able to do yourself.
How does a combination boiler work?
A combination boiler does two tasks, the first is to provide radiant heating to a building and the second is to provide hot water. The boiler can provide hot water to only one system at a time, but eliminates the need to have two boilers.
