ducts to rooms.
Freon
A registered trademark for a cholorfluorocarbon (CFC) gas that is highly stable and that has been
historically used as a refrigerant.
Fuel Efficiency
The ratio of heat produced by a fuel for doing work to the available heat in the fuel.
Fuel Oil
Any liquid petroleum product burned for the generation of heat in a furnace or firebox, or for the
generation of power in an engine. Domestic (residential) heating fuels are classed as Nos. 1, 2, 3;
Industrial fuels as Nos. 4, 5, and 6.
Fungi
