Dissecting An Air Conditioner

By Barney Garcia

An air conditioner is a device, which is used to cool the air.

People extensively use it across the world. However, there are

certain things that you should look for when purchasing,

installing and using an air conditioner.

The Main Parts of an Air Conditioner

The compressor, the condenser and the evaporator are the three

main parts of an air conditioner. Besides these, an air

conditioner also has a hot coil and a cool coil on the out side

and inside respectively. It has two fans and a control circuit

to modify the temperature. However, the most important one of

the lot is the compressor.

 The Compressor: This part can function for many years. If your

air conditioner is old and the compressor has a fault, it can be

replaced with a new one as well. Since the compressor is the

part, which releases the cool gas, it is the most important part

of an air conditioner. Most of the companies purchase a

compressor from an external source and install it into their air

conditioners.

It is recommended that you buy an air conditioner from a

company that makes its own compressors. Companies also give

warranties on compressors.

The Condenser: This is where the liquid is converted back into

gas again. It is a very important part of an air conditioner

unit. It can be replaced if it develops faults.

The coils can also be replaced easily. If a coil develops a

fault, you may not get satisfying cooling results. Hence, it is

recommended that you service your air conditioner regularly so

that all the parts last longer.

The external cover can be selected according to the colors and

shades of your choice. It has no function except for providing a

general appeal to the air conditioner.

Usage Parameters

During summers, we tend to reduce the temperature below 20

whereas the temperature outside is above 30. This is bad for

your health and if you step out of the room after a long time,

you can easily catch a cold. Also, drink lots of fluids as your

body gets dehydrated if you are in the Air Conditioner for a

long time.
