The concept of air conditioning has been around since ancient Rome. Water from aqueducts was circulated through the walls of homes as way to keep them cool. Similar techniques were also used in medieval Persia. Advances in chemistry brought about the air conditioning we know today. Willis Carrier invented the first large scale, electrical air conditioning system in 1902. His system controlled both temperature and humidity.
These original air conditioners used highly toxic or flammable gases, such as ammonia and propane. Fatal accidents occurred when these gases leaked from a system. Thomas Midgley, Jr. created Freon® in 1928 to replace these unstable gases.
Freon® is an ozone depleting chlorofluorocarbon (CFC). In the last several years, many non-ozone depleting refrigerants have been developed as alternatives. Honeywell (formerly AlliedSignal) is producing one of the most well known alternatives, Puron®.
Air conditioning technologies continue to improve. Newer systems operate with much greater efficiency and provide improved indoor air quality as well.
Reducing the impact on the environment is another important area of innovation, because in addition to greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy use, CFCs and other refrigerants are harmful greenhouse gases when leaked into the atmosphere.
Therefore, it is essential that your air conditioning systems be maintained and repaired by licensed, reputable service technicians. Champion AC has NATE certified technicians that offer the best heater San Antonio repair and replacement options.
At the end of the day when the sun has finally set, there is nothing better than relaxing in the comfort of your bedroom. Choose soothing colors, such as neutrals and pastels. Keep the room organized to keep your mind at ease. Decorate with items that make you happy, such as pictures from your favorite vacation spots or family photos. Your
