The coil is the part of the system that carries the refrigerant gases through a heat exchanger. It looks something like the radiator on your vehicle. A coiled copper (or aluminum) tube snakes through a mesh of aluminum fins, increasing surface area and increasing the transmittal of heat.

The A coil is the triangle shaped peice in the furncae that hooks to the out door unit.Other than that the outdoor unit has a coil that lets let heat disipate to the outside air,this is a serries of copper tubes that run through aluminum fins and are usually exposed the heated fluid runs thru the fins and the heat evaporates to the out door air

There are actually two. In a split unit ( the one where a big box thing sits outside and there's a central furnace inside) there is the evaporating coil on the inside of the house and the condensing coil on the outside.

To create cold air, an a/c uses a coil (sometimes looks like a spring) of copper tubing full of a gas under intense pressure. When gases are forced under pressure, they become very cold. The surrounding air in the system then also becomes very cold, and a fan is used to disperse it into the house. Cool?

Sounds like it would be a coil in your central airconditioning unit.

It is the part of your furnace that enables itself to have air conditioning. They suggest you have it when you buy a new furnace w/o air so that if you decide to add air conditioning at a later date, it is there and ready to add the air unit.
