Central Forced Air System
• Most Common HVAC System
• Circulates air through or around heating and cooling devices.
• A fan forces air into ducts
• Supply ducts transport conditioned air into building through diffusers or supply registers
• Air is routed back to heating/cooling device through return ducts

Air Handling Unit (AHU)
• Device used to condition and circulate air as part of an HVAC system
• Large metal box containing a blower, heating or cooling elements, filter, and sound attenuators
• Connects to ductwork that distributes the conditioned air through the building and returns it to the AHU

Air Handling Unit (AHU)
• May need to supply heating, cooling, or both
• A furnace generates heat
– Fuel oil or natural gas
– Electric heating elements
– Heat pump
• A refrigeration system absorbs heat
– Air conditioner
– Heat pump

Air Handling Unit (AHU)• Smaller air handlers may contain a fuel-burning
heater or a refrigeration evaporator placed directly in the air stream
• Large commercial air handling units contain coils that circulate water– Boiler provides hot water or steam– Chiller provides chilled water

Hot Water System
• Water heated in boiler and circulated through pipes to radiators
• Requires plumbing rather than ductwork

Zone Control System
• One heater and one thermostat per room
• No ductwork
• Often used in hotel rooms

Radiant Heat• Supply heat directly to the floor, wall, or ceiling• Hot water pipes or electric heating element runs
through building component• Dependent on radiant heat
– Heat transferred from hot surface to people and objects

Heat Pump (HP)• A machine or device that moves heat from one
location (the source) to another location (the mechanical work)
• Can produce heating or cooling by reversing the direction of heat flow
• Can be used in:– Forced Air System– Hot Water System– Radiant Heat System
