A central air and heating unit is a type of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system that provides climate control for a home or business. It is composed of two main components: an indoor unit, which is typically located in the basement or attic, and an outdoor unit, which is usually located outside the building. The indoor unit consists of an evaporator coil, a condenser coil, and a blower motor, while the outdoor unit contains a compressor, a condenser coil, and a fan. The two units are connected by a network of ducts that circulate air throughout the building. Central air and heating units are designed to provide efficient, cost-effective climate control by cooling or heating the air in the building, as well as filtering and dehumidifying it. They are often used in combination with other HVAC systems, such as window air conditioners and furnaces, to provide the most efficient climate control.
