What is a Central System?
Central air conditioners circulate cool air through a system of supply and return ducts. Supply ducts and registers (i.e., openings in the walls, floors, or ceilings covered by grills) carry cooled air from the air conditioner to the home. This cooled air becomes warmer as it circulates through the home; then it flows back to the central air conditioner through return ducts and registers.
Central HVAC System Overview
Essentially, a central heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system regulates your indoor climate by circulating heated or cooled air through ductwork. Despite its apparent simplicity, achieving the ideal temperature in your home involves numerous interconnected components.
Familiarizing yourself with the central heating and cooling mechanisms can aid in maintaining your HVAC system effectively. Once you grasp the fundamentals, you’ll have a better understanding of your home’s climate control every time your HVAC unit activates. Explore various HVAC system options and delve into the heating and cooling processes outlined below, complemented by an informative video elucidating HVAC functionality and operation.
How does central cooling function?
The cooling process of an air conditioner entails extracting heat and moisture from your indoor space and expelling it outdoors, consequently lowering your home’s temperature. This intricate operation requires seamless coordination among all elements of the central cooling system.

Direct Air mini-split heat pumps not only bring comfort to your home but also energy savings that can exceed 40% compared to traditional mini-split systems by using the latest compressor technology called “Inverter”.
When you need to cool more than one room, you don’t have to install a separate system. You can choose our multi-zone models which will heat or cool many rooms by matching up to 4 ventilation units to a single outdoor unit.
Direct Air Central Air Handler
An air handler plays a crucial role in your HVAC system, responsible for circulating conditioned air throughout your home. It houses components like the blower, filter, and evaporator coil, working together to ensure efficient heating, cooling, and ventilation. The blower pulls in air from your home, passes it through the filter to remove impurities, then sends it over the evaporator coil where it gets heated or cooled before being distributed back into your living spaces.
Our air handlers are equipped with high-performance components, including efficient blowers and advanced filtration systems, guaranteeing clean and comfortable indoor air quality. With Direct Air’s reliable and durable air handlers, you can enjoy consistent heating, cooling, and ventilation for years to come.
Before installation, what measures should homeowners undertake?
Step 1
Determine your heating and cooling needs
Do you live in a place where the temperature outside gets close to freezing? If yes, consider investing in a furnace to provide hot, dry heat quickly. Does the temperature where you live stay consistent and mild most of the year? If so, a heat pump could provide the heating and cooling you need all year long.
Assess your HVAC needs based on your geographic region, yearly temperature patterns, and home size to ensure you’re installing the right device.
Step 2
Make time for installation
Step 3
Hire a licensed HVAC professional
Entrust the installation of your system to a licensed HVAC professional, preferably with additional credentials such as NATE certification. Your certified technician will not only install your system but also provide ongoing support for maintenance and troubleshooting as needed.
