“How do heat pumps change the direction of refrigerant flow?”

One of the best features of heat pumps is their ability to switch from operating as a cooler to operating as a heater and vice versa. But what makes this happen? Well, heat pumps have a component called a Reversing Valve. This piece of machinery allows for direction change in refrigerant flow. Reversing valves are a vital part of heat pump machinery, and should serve as an inspiration to engineers all over the world.
