Customer Service

Description:

At last a book is available that gives HVAC techs a practical understanding of how refrigeration units fit into HVAC systems. Refrigeration for the HVAC Technician is also valuable for more than just HVAC techs. Clayne A. Larsen, HVAC/R Shop Supervisor at Brigham Young University says,

"This book is also a great asset to Building Managers, Building Operators, and Building Owners. The information contained in this book could easily save $1000s in costly repairs that could be avoided with the right knowledge at hand. I found it to be very fast reading with the concepts laid out in a very logical manner."

Because problems in the HVAC system can be caused by refrigeration malfunctions, the trouble-shooting flow charts in this book help techs pinpoint the source of a problem and determine when they can fix the problem themselves and when to call a specialist.

The book also offers practical tips on how to maintain the cooling system at peak performance. It covers these areas:

• Cooling in the central air handling system
• Basic principles of refrigeration
• Basic compression refrigeration cycle
• Chillers and different types of compressors
• Spotting problems
• Maintaining the HVAC cooling system

A bonus feature is an English to Spanish Glossary of HVAC refrigeration terms.
