What is a gas package unit?
A gas package unit is a heating and cooling system that combines both the furnace and air conditioner into one unit. It is typically installed outside the home or building and is connected to the ductwork to distribute heated or cooled air throughout the space.
How does a gas package unit work?
A gas package unit uses natural gas or propane to heat the air during the winter months. The gas is burned in a combustion chamber, and the heat generated is transferred to the air that passes over it. During the summer months, the unit can also cool the air by using a compressor and refrigerant to remove heat from the indoor air and expel it outside.
What are the benefits of a gas package unit?
One of the main benefits of a gas package unit is its efficiency. Gas heating is typically more energy-efficient than electric heating, which can result in lower utility bills. Additionally, a gas package unit eliminates the need for separate heating and cooling systems, saving space and reducing installation and maintenance costs.
How often should a gas package unit be serviced?
It is recommended to have a gas package unit serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance can help ensure that the unit is running efficiently and can catch any potential issues before they become major problems.
