The air will travel through the compressor and the pressure and temperature will soon rise. The refrigerant goes from a liquid to a gas then back to a liquid.
The refrigerant travels through the condenser and the now hot refrigerant travels back into the Domestic Hot Water. The refrigerant is now cooler and it goes through the expansion valve and turns back into gas to start the process all over again.
