What Exactly Is a Home HVAC Setup?

HVAC refers to the integrated equipment that manage your home's climate.

The control panel acts as the command unit of the whole system, instructing each component when to activate. Modern HVAC units also include moisture regulation and filtering to protect healthier indoor air.

There are several types of HVAC setups used in residential buildings: traditional split configurations are most common, featuring an indoor air handler and outdoor compressor. Packaged HVAC systems combine everything in one outdoor unit. Heat pumps are capable of both heating and cooling, making them very cost-effective in temperate areas like Walnut Creek.
