How are air compressors different from air conditioning compressors?
Air compressors are used to compress air to higher pressures for various applications like powering pneumatic tools or inflating tires. On the other hand, air conditioning compressors are specifically designed to circulate refrigerant in an air conditioning system to cool the air. The main difference is the purpose they serve - air compressors compress air for various uses, while air conditioning compressors circulate refrigerant to cool indoor spaces.
