Watch my latest video on how a revolver works! th-cam.com/video/1s4plUZGj4w/w-d-xo.html
I’ve been an hvac tech for 10 years and I have never seen this explained even close to as well. You even get to see the scroll inside the compressor. Nice work whoever made this
Thanks so much Richard, I really appreciate that!

Appreciate your hard work in making this Video Bro, In India we have split AC and window AC in residential Buildings in India, I just want to know how the Exchange of Oxygen takes place from outside home to inside the house, since the door and windows are closed of a particular home, and no other ventilation system is there at home
@@Royd20 Thanks so much Roy, glad it was helpful :)
@@mattrittman your a really good animator its like top notch levels of animation.
@@damienhobbs1040 Thank you so much Damien 🙏🏻
I know making this type of videos is super hard and we really appreciate it.
Thank you so much!

@@mattrittman how long does it usually take to make an animation like this?
@@shayan_e I think I logged around 300 on this one haha. It’s a ton of work!
I have been training folks for years on HVAC and this 3D animation is by far the best demonstration of the evaporation compressor cycle. Incredibly well done!!
Wow thank you so much for such a nice comment! You made my day :)
These are absolutely exquisite animations. An inspiration to us all. Thank you for your work.
Thank you so much, it really means a lot!
Agreed, good job Matt, hope you reach 1 Mil soon.

Ay nice.
Please help me subscribe to the channel. Thank you
@@mattrittman Больше всего понравились ролики про оружие))
As an HVAC man I can say this is a top notch animation and educational video on the refrigeration cycle of residential comfort cooling!
Wow, thank you so much! Glad it was helpful :)
Would it also be accurate for larger scale air conditioning like for large businesses or factories?
As a journeyman HVAC installer I must say this video is, in every aspect, the best explanation of a generic modern residential A/C system. From the most detailed animations (with a scrolls compressor) to doing a fantastic job of simplifying the process without oversimplifying it.
Wow thank you so much for such a nice comment :) Really glad it was helpful. I know I could have gone into much more detail, but yeah, I think it’s important to keep things as simple as possible.
I feel like we are finally getting the education we were promised.
the era of information is finally here?
That animation is top iceberg only that system is a lot more complex and need a lot time learning how everything works don't talk about electricity this system used 3 different types electricity voltage plust calibration on all equipment to properly operation under pressure
You used to have to sit through a shitty TV show on the history channel to get a chance to see awesome explanatory animation like this
Thank you. Over the last two days I've watched at least a dozen videos. This is the best one, by far, because it did both things I needed: to understand the process, and to see the actual physical layout of a typical home system. For whatever reason no-one seems to understand both of those are needed.
Thanks so much for letting me know Kevin! I love comments like this, knowing I was able to help understand these complex systems. The compressor portion is still even difficult for me to understand myself. It was hard to explain, and I hope it makes some sense at least haha
@@mattrittman I thought the video was for the same reasons as Kevin. The animation was super clear, too.
Right
its crazy how innovative and ingenious systems we use every day truly are. it can be easy to take these systems for granted, but taking some time to learn about how they work is both useful and satisfying. thanks for the video
I am sorry for the confusion, as I had to re-upload this video in order to make a few tweaks!
Would you make a vid on how a tank works?
Please matt rittman mere channel pe subscribers de do
@@SpaceScienceAndAstronomy he doesn't speak Chinese lol
@@nobodycaresaboutyou5590 是的，我不知道

One of the best explanations on youtube. Need one for heat pump systems now 😅
A very detailed video, though I don't use this type of air conditioner sadly.
I have one they are a pain

They are literally almost zero maintenance what kind of pain is there?
Been doing HVAC for 36 yrs and this is one of the best simplistic videos I’ve seen yet. Perfect for the new guys to put it all in perspective. Well done !
From a soon to be Residential HVAC Install helper, this video precisely breaks the whole system so accurately and explains it so well without oversimplifying everything. Great video!
One of the most densely packed, yet excellently delivered videos I've seen. Animation was incredibly crafted! I know how an AC works now but I keep coming back just to appreciate the work.
Outstanding. A work of art. Thank you. This presentation style is a treasure.
I've been in the HVAC trade now for about 5 months as a helper doing change outs and new installs, and this video is an excellent reference for the refrigeration cycle and how it works. I've still had questions here and there but this summarizes basically all if my questions. Thank you!
JaredOwen: Finally! A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!
After watching a handful of videos, you explained this process in a way I understood. Thanks.
Having a little psychedelic experience right now and this really rocked my world. Beautiful animations. Clear and amazingly concise explanations. I, for one, learned solidly how an A/C works 👌
dude!!! same!!! I've never learned something so well and enjoyed it so much while toasted. Like the fact that I retained all the information is incredible.
+ the background music was an excellent choice as well.
@edenkaruna4638 😂 glad to know I'm not the only one!
hope you enjoyed your trip bud, boutta smoke an infused pre roll rn lmao
This is gold. Thanks for creating, explaining and sharing this. Much needed for my visual mind, and I love understanding how things work
Thanks so much Russell! 🙏🏻
@@mattrittman I would encourage you to keep up these kind of videos. I grew up a carpenter and now a project manager, learning the other trades in a nut shell helps my job so much
I love this animation, i knew absolutely nothing on how the HVAC System in my home worked, but after this video, i have a good grasp on the basics !! I looked through your other animations and i can tell you worked hard on making them, i appreciate your hard work ! You just gained a new subscriber !
Thank you so much Jose! That means a lot man :)
Our air handler is in the attic. Mice made a nest by the condensate drain pipe and it became plugged with insulation. The water had no where to go so it just over flowed and went into the ceiling. I came home from work on a 100° day and when I walked in it was raining in my kitchen which is below the air handler. It was such a mess. Tool a week to dry out enough to begin cleanup. So make sure that drain line is clean and clear.
Amazing animation. You explained it perfectly.
I'm an engineer with six patents including an efficient torque-vectoring differential for which I created a 3D animation in SolidWorks, but Matt Rittman's animations and explanations are way better, the best I have ever seen. I've commented on his stunning animation of my favorite shotgun, but our 26 year-old AC unit is failing and I found this video. Wow. It explains ALL of what makes a home air conditioner work, including by inference how evaporator coil freezing is prevented for example. Once again I am blown away, and grateful. Thanks again, Matt!
Heh, I see what you did there. I love puns, when they're done right.
As an hvac apprentice, I appreciate the well explanation of how the system works.
Incredibly simple and clear way to deliver "How air con works"!!!
You provide very professional videos Matt, a pleasure to watch and learn.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!
Great work. Beautifully designed, easy to understand!
Thanks so much Patrick!
This video is a work of art, thank you for the enormous amount of effort that obviously went into creating it.
Im a new hvac tech and starting my first big corporate job a week from now and thank you for this basic. I am mind blown rn
Excellent video, thank you for your work. I will use this in one of my HVAC classes so that I can expound on superheat and sub cooling.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the kind comment!
Would you ever consider making a similar video explanation on Heat Pump systems? This video is invaluable in terms of clarity of explanation of these systems, and as a developing HVAC technician a strong grasp of Heat Pumps is a demanding necessity I have come to realize
thank you for such great content
Thanks so much, this is the only illustration of the air conditioning process that has felt complete and clear enough for me to understand, awesome!!!
the animations are great, and i like how everything is explained with visual imagery. thanks :)
You did TH-cam for 13 years I'm glad ur getting alil more recognised
Thank you, yes I have been here for a while :)
Omg:)))))))
Awesome demo! Great presentation and explanation. Thank you!
Thank you so much :)
Very informative. I checked many videos but they lacked clarity and finally came upon this one which is very clear. Thanks.
Quite simply the best video created illustrating how an AC system works.
This was amazingly detailed. PLEASE do how a turbo charged engine works!!!
Thank you, I’ll certainly consider this!
Ben working HVAC for 3 years and this the first time I’ve seen something like this. Gonna show my helpers so they stop asking me fucking questions.
Simple, easy, and quick explanation. How they should be. Good video.
Spectacular. Fabulous. Breathtaking. Just pure awesomeness. First AC video that I managed to watch till the end
As someone who works on them for a living I can attest this is a very accurate and excellent explanation
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!
Why are you watching the tutorial then 😅
@@ganibattlebeard Wouldn't a tutorial be on on how to do something?
20 year service tech here, your animations are incredible.
I have a question for you if you don't mind me asking. With my thermostat set at 72 the room is not cooling down (room stays at ambient temp). Checked the condensor outside and the fan is spinning as well as the air handler blower fan in the house. I felt both the large and small diameter freon lines and neither of them feel cool/cold. Do you think it's my freon charge? Is it possible for the condenser fan to run if the compressor is not running?
@@jaso5114 you probably have a bad capacitor if the fan is running without compressor running. Could be refrigerant but probably not. Tons of videos of how to replace that part. Feel free to ask if you have any other questions.
@@dwigg7700 Thank you so much for your advice. I tried operating it once more and now neither the fan or compressor run, all I hear is a humming sound. Ordered a replacement capacitor!
Finally. This is the first video that is very detailed information. I hope you also have a video for heating explanation. Thanks
Absolutely amazing. I have been searching the whole day for a video like this. This is the only one I found that thought me exactly what I needed. One thing that I think is missing is "how heat is distributed through condenser". I wish they added little more explanation for that part as well. Thank you for the good work.
Glad it helped!
Nice animation..and also nice design for air conditioner.. haven't seen those designs in our country..very inspiring
Thanks so much :)
this should be a how things work channel
Thanks so much for doing such a great job for explanation of how AC works.
11 months of schooling yet I could have learned all of this thru the video.
Muito louko isso vou fazer na minha casa
Well now ik how that works...
After a several videos, this one was by far the best to explain how does it works in fact.
Thank you so much :)
the animation made it way easier to understand. Exactly what i was hoping to find!
Today I am feeling a special respect to my air conditioner
:))
fan fact : Cotton candy was invented by a dentist.
By far the best video on how ACs work. Very well done, Matt Rittman. A++.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that :)
@@mattrittman It's true. It's clear and has all the elements of an AC. Would it be possible to do a window unit?
Yeah I almost wish I had done a window unit initially, as they seem to be more widely used. It’s definitely a possibility in the future :)
This is explained beautifully. Thank you for this.
Still waiting for, how a woman works.
It'll be a long wait. Prob millions of years

We will never know
They don't. Problem solved.
@@MisterMooo I don't think it will come
How could we make something like this, this proves how smart humanity is
These are the exact same things i learnt from a small portion of a book and it's amazing how animated pictures can make you learn so much easier and much faster
Was the book called "How it Works"
Dude. These videos are incredible. Thank you for making these videos and for the work you put into making these videos.

Great job! Best explanation of how and AC works!
This is such a fantastic explanation. Thank you so much for putting in the time and effort to help me understand this.

Because all are very helpful for students.
I am also thankful rittman
Why is this a rather small youtube channel.
Because 3D animation takes a ton of time and is a lot of hard work.
Amazing! I've recently started learning Blender and I'm a quick learner and perfectionist so even my first models are up to spec and schematics I find online and are very realistic in my renders. I've wanted to do stuff just like you're doing here, helping people understand how stuff work (since I love researching) and having a challenging project to learn Blender on the way.
My first project will be on electrical plugs and sockets since it's more complicated than most people understand. The distance between the inner socket copper and the plug's metal part is crucial to prevent small hands (like a small child) from removing a plug and touching live metal parts. The couple pins on the EU are intentionally a little bent towards the middle to create some pressure when they are plugged-in to make them snug and so on.
I don't really know how much time it will take, and since I'm using an open-source tool, I'm not planning on selling any of the project, just making it all CC0 to give back to the open-source community.
Absolutely amazing. Best vide of the vapor compression cycle I've ever seen. Surprised you're bit monetising your videos, Matt!

Awesome video to watch during a heat wave indoors where a/c is running.
After watch this video :
i still can't understand
It looks like a collection of random images and random text. The target audience must be the people who already know how an AC works.
Very poorly done.
It's really not that complicated. The state changes of refrigerant can be ignored in describing it, and instead just refer to it as "compressed" and "uncompressed" states of the refrigerant (Freon, generally). You take exterior temperature, uncompressed refrigerant, and run it through a compressor. In it's now compressed state, what was an exterior temperature at an expanded volume is now a hotter temperature in a compressed volume. Same total energy when considered as an isolated system.
The refrigerant is then run through the condenser coils to increase it's surface area exposure, and the fan cools it back down to ambient exterior temperature by blowing outside air through the coils. Once cooled back down to ambient exterior temperature, it runs through the refrigerant lines back into your house and to the air handler. Then it hits an expansion valve, which allows the refrigerant to expand back into its uncompressed state.
So what was ambient exterior temperature in a compressed state, once decompressed into a larger volume, is now cooler than the surrounding air. Again, same total energy level but differing volume. This uncompressed refrigerant runs through the evaporator coil, making it colder than interior air. A blower pushes conditioned air inside the home through the coils, where the air's heat is transferred to the now cold coils, and then into the supply plenum connected to your ductwork, and distributed to registers throughout the dwelling.
That's the reason the efficiency of your unit is based on the difference between your thermostat setting and the temperature outside; because the system always starts at ambient exterior temperature, and becomes less efficient the greater the temperature difference.
What a genius that invented this system.
Number one in all kind of media producing... I love the way you do things... Hey you are awesome...
I knew nothing about AC units and I found your video, Short, easy to understand and great visuals! Thank you (:
Such a great explanation and I wonder how anyone could come up with this in the first place...genius.
You guys nailed it! Awesome job! I finally understood how this works. Thanks!
I've always wondered what the compressor or "big box" was outside for AC. Never understood why it needed a fan outside but this video explained that. Thanks!
These are some of the coolest videos on TH-cam! Keep up the great work.
amazing animation and clear illustration
I work at this kind of market for the last 36 years. This video is really good and useful. Congratulations!!
Been in the trade for 6 months and have watched plenty of videos, this is the first one I actually learned me something good job !
thank you for the animation! it made it clear how system works.
the best explanation I have ever seen on the net about air conditioning systems.
Compression-condensing-expansion-evaporation
Thank you so much Dr.Carrier.
Thank you, really well explained and detailed animation.
Loved the video , its concepts and animation. It is no wonder why even with these less videos you still crossed 1 M subscribers. Keep it up man. Really.
Thank you so much man, that means a lot!
Outstanding videos, Matt! Well done.
after 8months finally your video
I love your video
Very perfectly animated and explained
This is the best channel that explain anything realy detail ,with realy many subtitle
HVAC/R technician here, very impressed and great job
I recently had a used turbo incabulator installed on my a.c. unit, it uses inverse reactive current in unilateral phase detractors, and can automatically synchronizing the cardinal grandmeters. The only problem it had was with side fumbling but I had a local mechanic replace the 2 parallel marzelveins and now it operates with little to no side fumbling.
Best video for this topic. Great animation!
I honestly think everyone should watch this.
Amazing explanation, thank you.
