2. Glossary of HVAC terms - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_HVAC_terms

   A two-stage air conditioner is designed to operate on high and low settings during different weather conditions and seasons. The high setting is used during extreme weather, and the low setting is used during moderate weather. This type of air conditioner produces a balanced temperature and is in use for a longer period of time.

3. Air changes per hour - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_changes_per_hour

   Air changes per hour, abbreviated ACPH or ACH, or air change rate is the number of times that the total air volume in a room or space is completely removed and replaced in an hour. If the air in the space is either uniform or perfectly mixed, air changes per hour is a measure of how many times the air within a defined space is replaced each hour.

   Alpha Black Edition - Sirair Air conditioner with UVC (Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation) Ventilation is measured in terms of Air Changes Per Hour (ACH). As of 2023, the CDC recommends that all spaces have a minimum of 5 ACH. [26] For hospital rooms with airborne contagions the CDC recommends a minimum of 12 ACH. [27]

   Currently used in residential and commercial air-conditioners and heat pumps. R-134a HFC-134a CH 2 FCF 3: 1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane: 3790 1550 Widely used Most used in 2020 for hydronic heat pumps in Europe and the United States in spite of high GWP. [58] Commonly used in automotive air conditioners prior to phase out which began in 2012. R-410A

6. Heating seasonal performance factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_seasonal...

   HSPF is specifically used to measure the efficiency of air source heat pumps. HSPF is defined as the ratio of heat output (measured in BTUs) over the heating season to electricity used (measured in watt-hours). [1] [2] It therefore has units of BTU/watt-hr. The higher the HSPF rating of a unit, the more energy efficient it is.

7. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

   The coefficient of performance or COP (sometimes CP or CoP) of a heat pump, refrigerator or air conditioning system is a ratio of useful heating or cooling provided to work (energy) required. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Higher COPs equate to higher efficiency, lower energy (power) consumption and thus lower operating costs.
