+Mark Pollack - Thank you for the feedback Mark. Yes, we did not mention the metering (refrigerant restriction) device at the evaporator entrance such as a thermal expansion valve in an effort to simplify the process. You are absolutely correct that a metering device is an important part of the central air conditioning system.
This video is far better than the first one I watched. The first one would only be helpful to those who have never even heard of an air conditioning unit before.
Thanks for your great videos! I've used several to make repairs at home. Today I just really wanted to finally know how the heck my HVAC works! And now I do!
We had a malfunctioning condensing unit and we called a HVAC engineer. He thought it wasn't running because of a faulty board. It was until then RepairClinic showed that the problem was either a faulty condensing unit contactor, a wire cut, or a blown fuse. We had to rewire all connections onto the board that the HVAC engineer removed and replaced the condensing unit wire with a new wire and it *started working again.* We *definitely recommend RepairClinic over a typical HVAC engineer*
The compressor does not have its own fan. The fan in the unit is called the condenser fan. It comes on as soon as cooling is called for. We recommend using the repair help section of our website to help diagnose your AC problems (link in the description). Have your model number ready for best results.
First let me say, I love your videos. Professionally done, simple and direct to the point. I know you are trying to simply the process, but your video describes the compressor as the component that turns the refrigerant back into a liquid at 3:12. May I suggest that you revisit that portion of the video. Thank you for listening.
That's because the video is totally correct the compressor is always changing the refrigerant from liquid to gas and then from a gas back to a liquid,the refrigerant also flows through the condenser and evaporator coils too It's similar to Refrigerators
Thanks for explaining AC. I had no clue on how this worked. Now that my central air is not working properly and had two repair companies, a plumber, and an electron come I thought I should become informed since it is still not working.
Great video I have a better understanding how an central AC works. My puppy chewed a wire leading into the condensing unit from the attic. The wire looks like a ground wire (but not sure) there is enough slack in the wire to splice it. Is this safe to do? Appreciate your input on this issue. thanks
Question I always wonder the difference between an attic set up or basement a/c heater set up...I have it in the attic...does it use up more energy since the attic is hot in the summer compared to one that is in a basement...
Yes. Since hot air rises, the air reaching the unit will be warmer than it would be in the basement. If the return vents are set up right it shouldn't make much difference though
If I connect a steam humidifier nozzle right above the evaporator coils will it catch any condensated water from the humidifier preventing it getting on furnace's coils?
I have an apparent Amana central air unit with the furnace, evaporator coil box and a condenser which is on the rooftop. The air conditioner Stopped cooling very well but it was still working. The repair person came and told me that there is oil leaking from the condenser, while the other person said that there should be no oil in there I'm very confused
Hello, so, at 11:30pm this Saturday night, my ac decides to give up. No cold air coming out of the vents. Checked the filter, could use replacing, but still wouldn't work with the filter temporarily removed. Went outside to check the fan and it's not moving. Noticed a coating of frost on the line connected to the compressor as well as part of the compressor. Out of curiosity, I checked the air handler in the attic and noticed water collected in the tray (which I don't recall seeing before). Where should I start? Capacitor? This is all new to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Both of the fans should be running. If the condenser fan is not running I would check the capacitor first and replace if necessary. You should not be getting frost on the compressor lines unless the air handler fan is not running, not enough air is blowing across the evaporator coil, or there is too much refrigerant. If the inside or outside air temp gets too cold it will also cause frost to form on the larger suction line on the compressor. When the unit is working properly the warm air moving across the evaporator will melt the frost on the coil and it will drip into the pan and go into the condensate drain.
My AC unit started acting up this week. It turns on but air is hardly coming through the vents. Brand new filter in it and still the same. Is this a problem with the capacitor on the blower fan? Or does it sound like something else?
Is there a "modulator" in home AC? My parents got a quote to replace it for $600 in So. California. Is that price accurate or are they getting ripped off?
Hey just wanted to ask a question... the central ac i got is working fine in some parts of the house but my room and living room etc, doesn't seem to be blowing that hard... my house was built brand new in early 2016 so basically a new house... is there any reason for this? I've tried opening some windows for better air flow and stuff but nothing seems to work and my vents are wide open. ty in advance
Vendetta Bruh if you are still looking for the solution to this issue, check that the dampers to the vents are not closed off. You can find them in your basement or wherever your ductwork is.
opening your windows is a terrible idea, it allows outdoor heat to come into your home. You can close vents in rooms that don't need cooling such as the washroom, closets, or partially close rooms that get good cooling. Up the fan speed on the furnace, most likely requires a technician to do this. If none of that works unfortunately the house was built with a terrible duct design, where the hvac rough in work wasn't connected properly or poorly designed.
One of the better videos on ac fundamentals. I was looking for a video that was about 15-20 minutes long that was more detailed but this is the longest video I found so far. Its surprising how hard is is to find a good video on the ac process and a good explanation of how the ac works and its fundamental parts. Obviously disappointed that there was no mention of the expansion valve. It would be great if there was a mention of the temperature of the gas/refrigerant at the different parts of the cycle. Keep up the great work, I hope you strive to improve this good video. Thanks!
Marvin Jones Jr. Check the power to the compressor and your refrigerant. Make sure the wiring of the capacitor and contactor are good for the compressor. Check air filter also. A bad air filter can affect the refrigerant which affects how the compressor works. Is the fan not working also?
So I was wondering, does the blower motor or bottom part of furnace blower, both have affects on the furnace to operate, since when my furnace runs during the Fall/winter it seems to be making an unusual noise, but when the Central AC Runs during Summer , i felt there isn't any unusual noise?
I used to have an old rusty one that looks like it could be from 1998-2002 outside the window of my bedroom since my bedroom is halfway into the ground. It's been gone since June/July 2011. In december 2011, the apartment Maintenance replaced some of them with heat pumps and then did the rest of them in probably August/September 2012. Also, isn't a central unit thermostat just a knob with numbers all around it?
@@Bendigo1 I thought a swamp cooler uses tap water to cool the passing air and blow it into the home's duct work system. There are specific types of swamp coolers that can cool water for a home's water cooled condenser?
I checked both 2 furnaces in my house yesterday and found out there are no air filter in them ( The one in up stare has its air filter left outside with the manual book, the one in crawl space has no air filter). But I can tell that there are 2 gaps were built for air filters. We bought this house 2 years ago and I'm wondering if its ok to run furnaces without airfilters or if not then how the inspection did say anything about it
hello i have a question if the air handler is in the attic can i run bag duct down through a closet to the basement? we use the basement and soemtimes its humid i figured i would run air down there to cut some of the humidity even one duct would work just wondering thanks
I'm sure you can. You'll have trouble getting an accurate conditioning of that room since the thermostat is probably located elsewhere meaning the unit won't turn on based on the needs or conditions of your basement.
Question "how does a central AC work " Answer: it works great for those of us that don't have one. Yelling- son go put more water on the swamp cooler its getting f....ing hot In here. Thanks from Texas

Hi RepairClinic, I am pursuing my phd now. And I would like to use your video to do some experiment for my respondent. Is that possible? Or did you need some formality document in this matter?
I have a two story townhouse. I have two air vents with filters on the upstairs floor and none on the first floor. I have two intake vents with no filters at one end of the first floor. I am getting plenty of cool air blowing on the second floor but hardly anything on the first floor. I was told by the serviceman that my ductwork is beautifu but the design is not. He is suggesting that I put in a ductless unit for downstairs. Does this seem correct.
Great video Question : I have a 1.5ton 220volts split unit AC. After few seconds of turning it on the clamp meter reads 22A then rise to reach 37A for few seconds then it stops and the clamp meter reads zero or 0.1A. What could be the problem?
do you have inverter technology, it's rare though but if it doesn't, CHECK THE OUTDOOR AND STOP COMPLAINING IF IT STOPPED RUNNING, OF COURSE IT WILL DRAW LESS ELECTRICITY IF IT ISN'T TURNED ON
Somebody help me please ‼‼ 😑 Does an HVAC system need to be Serviced/Tuned on a Yearly or so Basis ?? My first 2 yrs electric bill somewhat reasonable but the past year bills have been No less than $400 monthly . I'm in a 2 family that used to be a 1 family and I'm wondering other than the rates per khw , Why is bill so High Now and must I ask for a Service/Tune Up ?? 2016-present Higher and higher my bill goes ‼‼ Oh and is the Unit supposed to be blowing out cool air once it reaches set temperature right after heating the place ??? Thank You for advice .
Serenityafterall not sure where at in the country you live but for me personally my gas and electric bill has been higher during months where we had extreme cold simply because the furnace has to run more often to keep the house up to temperature. You should have it serviced once a year to make sure everything is ok, techs may be able to see potential issues before something actually goes out and are able to save you from having to go without heat. Also check to see if your filter is clean, a dirty filter can also raise your electric bill. When the furnace satisfies the thermostat the burners shut down and will just run the fan for a short while afterwards to cool down the heat exchanger so you will feel some cool air coming through the vents at the end of a heating cycle
@@STO21NE Ok Thank You ‼ I live in Pocono Mountain PA and I appreciate your help . I change my filter every 3 months and I use to buy the ones to change every 4-6 weeks . I know for sure to get this service because I shouldn't have an ice block in the unit during the summer that comes crashing down behind the filter . I just like when landlords care enough to know when certain things need to be done but it will be on him just Respect the Tenant that cares . Thanks again ❗
Here. I saw an old aircon in one restaurant. Really really old. The condenser coils is turning to dust when someone touches it. What is the solution for that? It can be replaced? Or buy new ones?
why don't you clean them with water or compressed air, or ask the restaurant owner that you don't like the look of the ac and give the restaurant 1 star
I'm waiting on heating and air technitions to come over and look at my central air unit right now. It's not working. The thermostat will turn on but the outside unit doesn't work at all. It's kinda ironic I just had an electrician over to look at out lets that weren't working he checked the whole house made sure the wiring is good. He said the wiring is new and this house was renovated before I moved in. it's an old house but it was totally gutted out and updated with new appliances.
@RepairClinic.com I live in an aprtment. There is a loud annoying sound coming from the walls or Furnace (not sure) when AC is on. I know the sound is everywhere! How do we reduce this sound and make it quiet?

I am about to get a new hvac system. If the AC reduces the humidity in the home, would having a humidifier on the furnace unit be adding humidity that isn't needed when running the AC?
srabchun a humidistat should be installed with the humidifier. This, along with only giving power to the humidifier when the furnace is on, prevents humidifying with cooling.
Can we all take a moment and express some gratitude for the man (or men) who invented AC? And also the washing machine.
If not him, some other by this time.
It's was a Africa American who invented the A C.
Ac invented by Willis carrier
I always say that. 🥶
I do. I make a lot of money off of his invention 😂.

skater78207 A furnace has one air filter, which should be checked monthly and changed every six months or more frequently, if you suffer from allergies or have pets Some homes also have an electronic filter. You'll find our How It Works: Furnace video to be informative: th-cam.com/video/zaT-gcEYpvs/w-d-xo.html
I was asking because we have one furnace but have two vents that have filters

I am about to get a new hvac system. If the AC reduces the humidity in the home, would having a humidifier on the furnace unit be adding humidity that isn't needed when running the AC?
srabchun a humidistat should be installed with the humidifier. This, along with only giving power to the humidifier when the furnace is on, prevents humidifying with cooling.
Now I can put one in my home thanks
You have forgotten add expansion valve process.
how did you make this video?
Trevor Gormley Its pretty cool
