Air Conditioning Basics

The four main components to your air conditioner are:

Condenser: The condenser is the outside metal unit and where the gas from the compressor is condensed into a liquid. The gas entering the condenser is very hot. The temperature is then lowered, so the gas can convert back to a liquid.

Compressor: The compressor is inside the condenser. It circulates the pressurized refrigerant, to concentrate the heat, and changes the low pressure gas to high pressure.

Evaporator: The evaporator is the part of the system inside the home. In simple language, it absorbs the heat from your home.

Expansion Valve: The expansion valve controls the amount of refrigerant in your system.

All of these pieces are connected by a copper tube that handles refrigerant, creating a closed loop. Heat is collected in the evaporator, sent outside to the condenser. The heat is removed, and the cool air is recirculated back into your home.

AC Facts

An Air Conditioner Doesn’t Create Cool Air.
What happens in the AC process is actually the removal of heat from the air. Your AC uses a chemical called refrigerant to remove heat and transfer it outside. The warm air runs through the lines and coils in your unit and goes from liquid to gas and back again. During this process, the refrigerant removes the heat and transfers it elsewhere so that when the air comes out the other side, it is cool.

Your AC Will Remove Humidity.
Lower humidity helps the overall comfort level in your home by making you feel cooler, even if the temperature is the same.

Your Air Filter Needs To Be Checked And Replaced Every Three To Six Months.
(depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations)
A dirty air filter restricts your air flow, which reduces efficiency, costing you money, and over time can put stress on your unit and could cause a costly repair.

Maintenance, Maintenance, Maintenance.
Your air conditioner needs regular checkups to keep it running in tip-top shape. Having regular annual preventative maintenance will bring your system longer life and fewer breakdowns over all.

SEER
The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) measures air conditioning and heat pump cooling efficiency, which is calculated by the cooling output for a typical cooling season divided by the total electric energy input during the same time frame. A higher SEER rating means greater energy efficiency.

At Innovative Air Solutions, we provide all the services you need to keep your AC running in top-notch shape. Call us at (409) 217-5229 for repairs, maintenance, or new-system installation.

Air Conditioner Installation in Orange, TX, 77630

“On time and very professional and courteous very satisfied”
- Mike G.

Air Conditioner Repair in Bridge City, TX, 77611

“When a condenser began overheating during midday heat this summer I used Chuck in a Truck Services to come out and take a look. Chuck changed out the fan motor because the amps were a bit high and repeatedly told me the five year old unit was junk and for $4400 he would replace it. The system was blowing cold air at less than fifty degrees.
The condenser shut down again within four hours.
Chuck didn’t want to come back unless he could replace the condenser.
I called Innovative Air Solutions and they sent out Chris Wilcox the next morning. Chris did a complete analysis and found the system was working fine, but the amps on the new fan were still high. He determined the coils were dirty even though they had been washed several times and you could see though both sides.
Chris completely stripped the case down to the floor pan and washed MUD out of the coils for forty five minutes! After reassembly and startup the system has worked like new with no overheating since.
Thank you, Chris Wilcox.
I have since replaced Chuck’s phone number with Innovative Air Solutions.”
