3. British thermal unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_thermal_unit

   The Btu should not be confused with the Board of Trade Unit (BTU), an obsolete UK synonym for kilowatt hour (1 kW⋅h or 3,412 Btu). The Btu is often used to express the conversion-efficiency of heat into electrical energy in power plants. Figures are quoted in terms of the quantity of heat in Btu required to generate 1 kW⋅h of electrical energy.

4. Forced-air gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced-air_gas

   The natural gas is fed to buildings from a main gas line. The duct work supplying the hot air (and sometimes cool air if an AC unit is tied into the system) may be insulated. A thermostat starts and stops the furnace to regulate temperature. Large homes or commercial buildings may have multiple thermostats and heating zones, controlled by ...

5. Air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_conditioning

   Heat pumps are similar in many ways to air conditioners, but use a reversing valve to allow them both to heat and to cool an enclosed space. [ 5 ] Air conditioners, which typically use vapor-compression refrigeration , range in size from small units used in vehicles or single rooms to massive units that can cool large buildings. [ 6 ]

6. Forced-air - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced-air

   Requires less energy than electric resistance heating and possibly more efficient than fossil fuel fired furnaces (gas/oil/coal). Air source types may not be suitable for cold climates unless used with backup (secondary) source of heat. Newer models may still provide heat when coping with temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).

7. Furnace (central heating) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furnace_(central_heating)

   At the furnace, cool air passes into the furnace, usually through an air filter, through the blower, then through the heat exchanger of the furnace, whence it is blown throughout the building. One major advantage of this type of system is that it also enables easy installation of central air conditioning , simply by adding a cooling coil at the ...
