Frequently Asked questions

What is an HVAC evaporator coil?

Evaporator coils are located inside your home and work with your air conditioner and furnace. Depending on whether you are heating or cooling a space, the coils pull in existing air to cool it or they add heat to warm it up. In essence, coils are one of the most important pieces to your HVAC system and are responsible for the heat exchange.

What is the benefit of an all-aluminum coil?

Unlike copper which may rust over time, all-aluminum coils do not. In addition, they are more resistant to micro-leaks which increases the longevity and efficiency of your unit.

What is the difference between an 'A' coil and 'N' coil?

‘A’ coils are formed using two slabs of fins – these types of coils have a surface area similar to a slab coil, however, they are installed without transition ducting. Alternatively, ‘N’ coils use three fin slabs. This arrangement increases the coil’s surface area and, therefore, accommodates more refrigerant. As a result, it operates more efficiently and generates more heat.

Are window AC units easy to install?

Yes! Each Durastar Room Air Solution comes with a handy user manual and installation guide, as well as installation hardware for securing your unit to a window.

What is the difference between R-32 and R-410A refrigerants for Window and Through-the-Wall Air Conditioners? 

The main difference between these two refrigerants is their GWP, also known as Global Warming Potential. Because R-32 has a lower GWP, it has a lower carbon footprint and is better for the planet.

Are Durastar Room Air Products easy to control? 

Of course! Each Durastar Room Air Solution comes with a remote control and user guide which allows you the comfort of changing settings from anywhere in the room. With a 24-hour timer, three fan speeds, and an easy clean filter, Durastar units are not only simple to control but also to maintain.

Do you sell Koldfront products?

Koldfront is now Durastar! Same great products, tested to perform and backed by industry-competitive warranties – simply a new name.
