NATE Heat Pump Quiz/50
Questions with Correct
Solutions/Rated A+
Charging a heat pump with refrigerant is best accomplished in the _______
mode.
A: Heating mode
B: Cooling mode
C: Defrost mode
D: Emergency heating mode - -B: Cooling mode
-Heat pumps can provide both heating in the winter and cooling in the summer.
In which mode is the heat pump more efficient?
A: Heating mode
B: Cooling mode
C: Defrost mode
D: Emergency heating mode - -A: Heating mode
-Which of the following components is exclusive to the heat pump?
A: Condenser
B: Oil separator
C: Reversing valve
D: Accumulator - -C: Reversing valve
-Which of the following airflow rates is the most reasonable for a heat pump
system operating in the heating cycle?
A: 200 cfm per ton
B: 300 cfm per ton
C: 400 cfm per ton
D: 450 cfm per ton - -D: 450 cfm per ton
, -During the heat pump's cooling cycle, the outdoor coil is utilized as a
_________ while the indoor coil is utilized as a____________.
A: Condenser, evaporator
B: Evaporator, condenser
C: Compressor, accumulator
D: Accumulator, condenser - -A: Condenser, evaporator
-Heat is present in winter outdoor air until the outside air ambient temperature
reaches a low temperature of:
A: 0 degrees F
B: 32 degrees F
C: 273 degrees F
D: -459 degrees F - -D: -459 degrees F
Technically this is true, but not practical. A heat pump is doing good to continue to
work below 10 deg F.
-The heat pump utilizes:
A: Two filter-driers with check valves
B: One bi-flow filter-drier
C: A single mono-flow filter-drier in the liquid line
D: Some use the bi-flow filter-drier and others use two filter-driers with check
valves - -D: Some use the bi-flow- filter-drier and others use two filter-driers with
check valves
-The correct way to size a heat pump is to perform both heating and cooling load
calculations and select the heat pump size by:
A: Adding the heating load and cooling loads
B: Subtracting the smaller load from the larger load
C: Using the heating load to size the system
D: Using the cooling load to size the system - -D: Using the cooling load to size the
system
-Auxiliary electric heat is necessary because:
