What Is an HVAC System and How Does It Work?

Most homeowners know what HVAC stands for (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning). Most also have a basic understanding of how the process works.

But very few people understand everything that goes into a full HVAC system.

This is understandable. How often do you have to think about your air conditioner, furnace, or another piece of HVAC equipment? Some have never had to purchase a new system or do more than schedule routine maintenance for their existing equipment.

When it comes time to make a new investment, though, whether that's building a new home or replacing existing equipment, it pays to know what's what.

If you're past that point and want to dig deeper into HVAC topics beyond this one, the Fire & Ice Learning Center is a great source for residential HVAC information. If you're still getting a grasp on the industry, though, this article will act as a primer. By the end, you'll have a solid understanding of HVAC equipment and processes so that the conversations you have with your HVAC contractor are more productive.

What Is An HVAC System?

 

An HVAC system is equipment, technology, and processes that go into heating, cooling, and ventilating a commercial or residential property. Typical equipment included in this definition includes air conditioners, heat pumps, furnaces, air handlers, ductwork, ventilation lines, filters, and other air quality products.

HVAC Equipment – Heating

Most homes will have a furnace heating their home. Furnaces come in different types and can use different fuel sources, including the following:

Natural gas furnaces

Electric furnaces

Propane furnaces

Oil furnaces

Geothermal furnaces

 

Natural gas furnaces are the most common these days, although electric is more popular in some parts of the country where there are mild winters, the cost of gas is higher, or both.

Heating equipment generally includes a blower motor as well, which moves air throughout the home.

Most homes have what is known as a forced-air system. This is where the heat is distributed throughout the home through its ductwork by a blower.

HVAC Equipment - Ventilation

Ventilation includes any of the attached systems that help to process and move air throughout your home and the HVAC system. This typically includes the ductwork, floor, wall, and ceiling vents, and other ventilation shafts, including chimney flues or PVC ventilation for indoor HVAC equipment.

A home's ductwork is designed to house the air that is conditioned by the air conditioner or heated by the furnace. Inadequate ductwork can stifle a system's ability to heat or cool or may produce hot or cold spots where there isn't sufficient ductwork to carry the air.

Other ventilation, such as chimney flues and PVC vents, are often needed to vent excess heat from a system's furnace.

Vents also exist on the outdoor air conditioning unit and throughout the home to distribute air.

Ductless HVAC systems will not include many of these more advanced forms of ventilation. There will still be an indoor and outdoor unit, and the indoor units (or "heads") can often heat and cool (though some are cool-only). However, these are generally for an individual room or area, such as a finished basement or attic.

Many consider a home's natural ventilation to be a part of this area as well. The ability to create cross-flow from windows and doors can be an important factor in keeping your home comfortable.

HVAC Equipment - Cooling

An HVAC system will traditionally include an air conditioner (or several of them for commercial properties). Additionally, heat pumps also work similarly to air conditioners. A heat pump can cool but can also heat a home.

Heat pumps are traditionally paired with electric furnaces, which supplement a heat pump's ability to provide efficient heat. Air conditioners are traditionally paired with gas furnaces.

How Does An HVAC System Work?

 

The important thing to know is that HVAC equipment moves air. In general, a system exists to move warm air elsewhere, either into the home or out of it. A home's air conditioner, heat pump, and furnace capture or create the heat, then the blower and ductwork help to facilitate the movement.

Below we look at each sub-system and talk about specific equipment and processes. It's important to remember that a central air HVAC system is a living, breathing system that functions as a whole. The heating system isn't siloed off entirely from the cooling system, and the parts and processes that help both functions properly often overlap.

An increasing number of website users are enquiring about a stolen car check. You can use this link to run a stolen vehicle theft check https://www.carveto.co.uk/blog/stolen-vehicle-check/ via the CarVeto database. This car register is provided for private motorists who are either buying a used car or investigating its history. Database checks for stolen/theft status via two sources: 1. Police National Register. 2. Nation Insurance database for previous insurance claim for loss of the vehicle. Stolen and recovered describes a vehicle previously stolen but recovered and given back to the registered keeper or legal owner. In many cases, a recovered car after theft will be removed from the Police register therefore not showing as stolen via the CarVeto database. Implications from a stolen vehicle 1. When a car is stolen, and the insurer pays out a loss premium to the legal owner (usually the person registered with DVLA on the V5C logbook), the vehicle is automatically written-off and disposed at salvage. Depending on the severity of the damage, the car will be classified under Cat A, B, C, D, S or N. Write-off status was updated in 2017. Here is a full guide on old and new category status https://www.carveto.co.uk/Write-Off-Check/ 2. Mileage alternation or ‘car clocking’ is another issue related to cars that were stolen and not recovered before resell. The purpose of clocking is to increase the perceived value of a car and to deceive potential buyers. 3. The third common trait to stolen cars is number plate changes – the CarVeto database provides a list of all legitimate number plate changes registered via DVLA/DVSA together with the dates of transfers and all other car reg numbers. Some stolen cars endure vehicle identity theft that can lead to car cloning. The database provided also investigate import and export changes, VIC inspections, scrappage alerts together with full road tax and MOT status/history. You will need a vehicle registration number to access the database for any car, van or motorcycle currently registered in the UK with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency.

The founder of CarVeto discusses a free hpi check and one is available for UK motorists https://www.carveto.co.uk/car-history-check/hpi-check-free/ CarVeto is a car data check provider like hpi check. Most of the information is sourced from the same places, including DVLA, the MIAFTR (Motor Insurance Anti Theft Register), MIB (Motor Insurance Bureau, DVSA and police theft markers. Hpi check is the oldest car checking service, established in 1938. They serve large pockets of the motor trade with information around car finance, car write-off, theft and mileage checks. For a private motorist, there are two products offered that range from £9.99 to £19.99. The cheap product has turned out to be insufficient when buying a car as it excludes much of the data that impacts vehicle safety and law. A private buyer that finds a car with outstanding finance must know who the lending company is, the agreement number, type of finance contract and contact information. Similarly, should a check from hpi result in write-off status, the details of accident damage are also omitted. It’s also the case with car mileage checks where hpi exclude the investigation for customers who only purchase the hpi £9.99 check. Motorists will mostly know that theft, mileage, write-off and finance are the four components to a car check of most importance. If you choose to use hpi when buying a car, ensure you only buy the £19.99 full check. CarVeto does things a bit differently to hpi. We provide an initial free car check Platinum check that includes all available online data. We also provide a detailed used car buying guide to help those motorists who feel uncertain when buying a second-hand car. The cost for Platinum is almost 50% less than hpi’s. Each report is instantly available via any UK car reg number. It’s suggested to download the report and add to service history.

Taxing a car without a logbook is not so easy. More information here: https://www.carveto.co.uk/blog/tax-no-logbook/ DVLA makes this the case to try and stop motorist from buying a car that doesn't have all of the paperwork; in particular the V5C logbook. The main reasons for avoiding a used car that doesn't have all of its documentation include: It may be a write off, It may be cloned or stolen. General notes on taxing a car with no logbook. You need at least one of the following: V11 car tax reminder V5C logbook registered in your name V62 Application form for a new logbook (provided the car is currently registered in your name) V5C/2 (or V5C/6 on the new style V5) Green new keepers supplement If you don't have any of these DVLA documents, you are generally unable to tax a vehicle. Steps to taxing a car without the correct documentation Firstly, apply for a new V5C via the V62 application form - helpful link: https://www.carveto.co.uk/blog/lost-logbook-v62/ There's a fee of £25, and the logbook usually arrives within four weeks of application. While you wait for the new logbook, your new car must be declared as SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification). Use this link for information and how to apply to DVLA: https://www.carveto.co.uk/blog/dvla-sorn/ SORN takes your car off the road meaning you don't need to have it insured, taxed or MOT'd, but you can't use the car legally on the road unless driving to a pre-booked MOT test. More on MOT testing here: https://www.carveto.co.uk/mot-check/checklist/ I don't have any of the documents, I don't want to SORN, and I need to use the car immediately... There is one possibility. You need to have: Insurance cover note MOT certificate (if the car is over three years old) V62 Logbook application form and a cheque or debit card for £25 Identification (preferably your driver's license) There is one other item you'll need. Watch the four-minute video for all of the details.
