external combustion air |
energy-efficient designs, the air used for combustion is sometimes brought in directly from outside, instead of wasting the warmed and humidified building air. |
|
Lowboy |
If the furnace is reduced to approximately five feet in height so that it can fit in an overgrown closet or even an attic it is called a lowboy. |
|
Typical refrigerant |
Refrigerant 410A (which is actually a family of several chlorofluorocarbon or CFC gases), circulated in a closed loop |
|
condenser |
The pump increases the pressure of the fluid, forcing the Refrigerant 410A to condense, |
|
Evaporator |
