Through the Wall Air Conditioner Installation NYC
Through
the wall air conditioners are like similar to window air conditioners.
The only difference is that thru the wall air conditioners are placed
through a hole on the wall. Like the window air conditioner, thru the
wall air conditioner are electrical appliances that regulate the
temperature of an enclosed space or room. This type of air conditioning
device is the most common type. It is commonly found on offices and
homes.
Another variant of this electrical device is the cool/heat
thru-the-wall air conditioners. It has the same features of a typical
air conditioner although this type of thru the wall air conditioner (or
more known as “thru the wall AC”) can also be used during cold season or
winter. Instead of just lowering the temperature of the room, the
cool/heat thru-the-wall air conditioner can also increase the room
temperature depending on the level the user programs the air
conditioning unit.
Thru
the wall AC works just like any other type of air conditioning unit. It
utilizes refrigeration cycle as a technique of lowering the temperature
of a room. To explain further, evaporation and condensation methods are
used in this system. In order to cool down a room, the air conditioning
unit begins by transforming cool low pressured gas into warm and high
pressured gas vapors. The warm gas then passes through a series of coils
where it is then diffused with its heat scattered thereby cooling it.
This will then transform the gas into liquid and is then passed through
an expansion value which will then turn it into cold vapor.
The
cold vapor is then again vented out through another set of coils. A
blower or fan expels this cold vapor into the room. Once cold vapor is
scattered into the room it will then absorb the warm air. The cold vapor
is then sucked it the unit through a filter thereby cycling the whole
process over again. This continuous cycle eliminates the heat from of
the room. The ambient air is then cooled off for circulation.
Thru
the wall ACs have vents located on both ends of the unit in order that
the air inside the room is blown in and out by the blower of the unit.
The outdoor vent of the air conditioner acts like a heat sink. Thru the
wall AC regulate and control the temperature of the room through a
control device; in most cases through an infrared remote control device.
Choosing
the appropriate thru the wall air conditioner is important in order for
the air conditioner to be efficient. The cooling capability of a
typical air conditioner is measured by BTU or British Thermal Unit. A
single BTU is needed to increase the temperature of one pound of water
by a degree. It is important to remember that the correct size of a thru
the wall conditioner is vital in the efficiency of an air conditioner.
Operating a small air conditioner on a large room is uneconomical.
Always choose the appropriate size of an air conditioner based on the
area of the room. Rooms with an area of 350 square feet are suitable for
air conditioners that have a cooling capability of 8,000 BTUs.
Remember, the larger the room the higher the BTUs.
Thru the wall
ACs are more economical than central air conditioners if you only needed
to cool down one or two rooms. It is always nice staying on a room that
is cooled by an air conditioner, especially during hot summer days. So
if you feel like having an air conditioner, why not opt for a thru the
wall air conditioner. Having these appliances creates a comfortable
environment both on our homes and at work.
