New Honeywell HVAC Warranty Policy From DtiCorp.com

Fort Lauderdale, FL – Popular Honeywell online retailer DtiCorp.com (http://www.DtiCorp.com) is introducing the new Honeywell HVAC Warranty Policy. HVAC (Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning) refers to technology of indoor environmental comfort. HVAC system design is a major subdiscipline of mechanical engineering, based on the principles of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. Refrigeration is sometimes added to the field’s abbreviation as HVAC&R or HVACR, or ventilating is dropped as in HACR (such as the designation of HACR-rated circuit breakers).
