HVAC Heat Pump: The Choice is Heating Up

HVAC Heat Pump: The Choice is Heating Up

by | Aug 14, 2024 | HVAC Technical Academy, HVAC Technician, Universal 608 EPA

We’ve reviewed just a couple details about a Heat Pump System, now it’s time to discuss thermostat control and efficiency.

Heat Pump Control and Efficiency

  • Thermostat Control: Heat pump systems are controlled by a thermostat, allowing users to set the desired indoor temperature. The thermostat turns on the heat pump’s compressor and fan as needed to maintain the set temperature, whether in heating or cooling mode.
  • Efficiency: Heat pumps are known for their energy efficiency, especially in moderate climates. By transferring heat rather than generating it through combustion, heat pumps can provide heating at a fraction of the energy cost of traditional furnaces. However, their efficiency may decrease in very cold climates, as there’s less heat available in the outdoor air for extraction.

HVAC Technical Academy: Brazing in the Sun

HVAC Technical Academy: Brazing in the Sun

by | Aug 12, 2024 | HVAC Technical Academy, HVAC Technician, HVAC Training

Recognizing one of the essential talents HVAC technicians MUST have is in the field of brazing, we get flames on and jitters out of the way fast.

They Call Me Mr. Braze

Not bad for a first time… or is it?

All participants get involved within the skills of torch safety and use. Earlier today we were introduced to condenser fan motor swapping by breaking down condensers, examining components, and getting the job done. Not a bad way to learn the HVAC skill set… by DOING!

  • Six-week adult workshop, a fast track to HVAC success
  • Results come from doing… and that’s exactly what we are all about.
  • Universal 608 EPA Certification is not just about passing a test, without the know-how of performing, you could be lost.

We are a hands-on workshop facility located in Sanford, Florida, where “Learn by Doing” defines our approach to get YOU on a path to personal AND professional success. Background friendly, HVAC Technical Academy partnered with 2nd Chance University to assist ALL desiring personal and professional success.

HVAC Heat Pump: Talking About the Heat

HVAC Heat Pump: Talking About the Heat

by | Aug 5, 2024 | HVAC Program, HVAC Technical Academy, Universal 608 EPA

Reversing ValveWhen it comes to heat pump systems, now we’re talking about the heat. Straight cool systems are not equipped to reverse the flow of refrigerant to generate heat.

You had me with HEAT

In heating mode, the heat pump reverses the refrigeration cycle to extract heat from the outdoor air and transfer it indoors. The process begins with the outdoor coil acting as the evaporator, absorbing heat from the outdoor air despite cold temperatures. The refrigerant then travels to the indoor coil, now acting as the condenser, where it releases the absorbed heat to warm the indoor air. A blower fan circulates the heated air throughout the building.

Refrigerant Flow Reversal: Heat pumps are equipped with a reversing valve that switches the direction of refrigerant flow between heating and cooling modes. This valve allows the heat pump to provide both heating and cooling functions without the need for separate systems.

Want more? I thought so. Next time we will introduce Thermostat Control and the concept of Efficiency.

HVAC Heat Pump: Let’s get back to it

HVAC Heat Pump: Let’s get back to it

by | Aug 3, 2024 | HVAC Technical Academy, HVAC Technician, Universal 608 EPA

HVAC Much has been going on over the past few weeks. Getting our HVAC training facility ready for a full capacity experience beginning this Tuesday.

Heat Pump Systems: Three Cheers to the Cooling Mode

Cooling Mode: In cooling mode, the heat pump functions much like a traditional air conditioner. The process starts with the compressor, which pressurizes refrigerant gas, raising its temperature. The hot refrigerant flows to the outdoor condenser coil, where it releases heat to the outside air, causing it to condense into a liquid. The liquid refrigerant then travels to the indoor evaporator coil, where it expands, absorbing heat from the indoor air. The cooled indoor air is then circulated back into the living space by a blower fan.

Next time we’ll summarize heating mode… so don’t be late! In the meantime, send questions through the comment section and one of our HVAC experts will share their experience and insight.

Interested in a career in the HVAC industry, consider HVAC Technical Academy to help you get on the path quickly and effectively.

During our 6-week workshop you get down and hands-on involved with heat pump components, troubleshooting/diagnosing techniques, and will even perform a complete heat pump system installation while developing HVAC Clarity, Choice, Confidence, and Competence.
