Perfect book for Joe Homeowner

This is a great book for the basics about you AC unit in the house. Helped me work (successfully) on my own unit. I don't think it would be helpful if someone wanted a more detailed book like a professional.

Well layed out and completely covers basics of HVAC.

This book is layed out well and completely covers the basics of HVAC. Any person who has used NAVEDTRA Manuals will find this to be both similar in lay-out and comprehensity of subject. It is inexpensive for the depth of knowledge contained. For the price, I don't worry that it may get wear and tear as I carry it around in my service van. You may be interested in Modern Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (Althouse, Turnquist, and Bracciano/ 18th Edition) the ultimate inclusive textbook as used in trade schools and colleges. It is relatively expensive but worth the investment for a career person. I have both.
