Air Conditioning workstations are a combination of desk and stand-up workstations with see-through locking tool cabinet, padlock/key, and power strip. Students test and service an air conditioning unit, perform electrical, mechanical, and maintenance tasks. They also learn about the installation, maintenance, and operation of residential air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Principals of air conditioning and refrigeration are explained, including gas expansion and compression, heat transfer, evaporation, condensation, thermostatic control, motors and electrical circuitry. Students calculate cooling requirements and perform hands-on electrical, mechanical, and maintenance tasks in a realistic job simulation.
