Condensing Unit On Roof

A condensing unit on a roof is a type of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system that is designed to cool air and expel it into the atmosphere. It is typically installed on the roof of a building and consists of an outdoor unit that houses the compressor, condenser, and evaporator coils, as well as an indoor unit that contains the fan and air handler. The condensing unit on the roof works by taking in warm air from the outside and passing it through the evaporator coils. The coils absorb the heat from the air and transfer it to the refrigerant, which is then compressed by the compressor. The compressed refrigerant is then passed through the condenser coils, where the heat is released into the atmosphere. The cooled air is then expelled into the building through the air handler. The condensing unit on the roof is an important part of the HVAC system, as it helps to keep the building cool and comfortable.
