How Does Air Conditioning Work? 🌬️

Ever wondered how your air conditioner keeps you cool? 🌞❄️

An air conditioner works by removing heat from your home and releasing it outside. Here's a quick breakdown:

Evaporation: Refrigerant absorbs heat from your indoor air and evaporates.
Compression: The evaporated refrigerant is compressed, raising its temperature.
Condensation: The hot, compressed refrigerant releases heat outside and condenses back into a liquid.
Expansion: The refrigerant cools down and expands, ready to absorb more heat.

Stay cool and efficient by keeping your AC well-maintained!
