AC Outside Unit
The outdoor half of a typical air conditioning system is a unit containing the refrigerant compressor and condensing coil. The air conditioning compressor motor is a pump which draws heat laden refrigerant gas from the building’s indoor components (evaporator coil and air handler), and compresses the low pressure refrigerant gas to high pressure and higher temperature.
The high pressure high temperature refrigerant gas enters the condensing coil where it is cooled to a liquid state usually by a fan blowing outside air across the condensing coil.
The heat produced in these steps is transferred to the outside by a fan which blows outside air across the condensing coil. The liquid refrigerant is then able to return to the indoor components for cooling and dehumidifying the building interior.
