Whilst the refrigerant turns back into a liquid, warm air is expelled via the outdoor unit<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> whilst the evaporated refrigerant is flowing through the air conditioning system, cooled air is circulated back into the room, providing a cooling effect to create a comfortable temperature indoors.<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"trx_addons_blockquote_style_1\">\n<p class=\"hero-banner__headline\">Feel refreshed without cold drafts.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of air conditioners<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Any air conditioning system needs both an indoor and an outdoor unit.
