2. Gas heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_heater

   Another example of a non-flued gas heater, running on natural gas. Non-flued heaters – also known as unvented heaters, vent-free heaters, or flueless fires, may be either permanently installed or portable, and sometimes incorporate a catalytic converter. [1] Non-flued heaters can be risky if appropriate safety procedures are not followed.

3. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

   In summer, ceiling fans and table/floor fans circulate air within a room for the purpose of reducing the perceived temperature by increasing evaporation of perspiration on the skin of the occupants. Because hot air rises, ceiling fans may be used to keep a room warmer in the winter by circulating the warm stratified air from the ceiling to the ...

4. Forced-air gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced-air_gas

   Older furnaces sometimes relied on gravity instead of a blower to circulate air. [1]Gas-fired forced-air furnaces have a burner in the furnace fueled by natural gas.A blower forces cold air through a heat exchanger and then through duct-work that distributes the hot air through the building. [2]

5. Whole-house fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole-house_fan

   A typical whole-house fan, with louvers closed when not operating. A whole house fan is a type of fan, commonly venting into a building's attic, designed to circulate air in an entire house or other building.

6. Central heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

   Electric heating or resistance heating converts electricity directly to heat. Electric heat is often more expensive than heat produced by combustion appliances like natural gas, propane, and oil. Electric resistance heat can be provided by baseboard heaters, space heaters, radiant heaters, furnaces, wall heaters, or thermal storage systems.

7. Passive cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_cooling

   Passive cooling covers all natural processes and techniques of heat dissipation and modulation without the use of energy. [1] Some authors consider that minor and simple mechanical systems (e.g. pumps and economizers) can be integrated in passive cooling techniques, as long they are used to enhance the effectiveness of the natural cooling process.
