No AC ➡️ fully cooled. This San Diego home had a gas furnace and ductwork already in place, but never had air conditioning, until now. Swipe to see the full install ❄️🛠️
Behind the scenes: new line set routed into the attic and Elite’s owner testing the system for leaks before we ever turn it on. No shortcuts, every joint gets verified 🧐🛠️
The finished core FAU install: rated at 100% efficiency electric heat, no gas, no combustion loss. The indoor half of the heat pump system, delivering both heating and cooling to the homeowner’s preferences.
Connecting the line set to the FAU’s coil. This same coil works as the condenser in heating mode and the evaporator in cooling mode, making year-round comfort possible. Below: Elite’s tech is working on the low-voltage wiring on the FAU’s terminal board to tie the thermostat into the system.
The finished outdoor unit: leveled, clean, and ready for years of quiet operation. This is the piece that gives this San Diego home true year-round comfort. ❄️🛠️🔥
A closer look inside the outdoor unit’s control board: the toroidal inductors are part of the system’s power filtering, keeping the compressor running smooth & efficient. The kind of detail most homeowners never see, but exactly why the system performs efficiently.
