The easy answer is 32v. Class dismissed. I’m only joking, of course. Finding the difference between 208 and 240v power supplies may sound quite simple, but there are some pretty sharp fundamental differences. Apart from the obvious differences in overall voltage, 208 and 240v power supplies use the electrical company’s power differently. The motors also […]

My goal in this tech tip is to help those who struggle to understand heat pumps get their heads around them as quickly as possible and understand some of the things a tech needs to know about them. The basic idea of a heat pump is to use the compression refrigeration cycle to move heat […]
