THE HIDDEN COSTS OF DIRTY CONDENSER COILS | Heat energy is typically moved by three means in a building: refrigerant, air, and water. Water is a much more effective way to transport energy around a building than air, but it has its struggles. Boilers and chillers add heat and remove heat from water, and pumps move the water through the building. The last important piece of the system is the #coil.
The #coils are the most important part of your HVAC system, because that’s where the heat exchange happens. It’s helpful to know what the coils do for your HVAC, but even more important to properly maintain your coils.
You’ll find 2 sets of coils:
* One indoor coil which acts as an evaporator coil
* One outdoor coil which acts as a condenser coil
The coils come in direct contact with the air that circulates through your HVAC system, so it’s important to ensure that the coils are kept clean and undamaged. Dirt and dust that builds up on your coils act as insulation. Any extra insulation makes your system work harder to heat or cool the air.
