(openPR) - Technology moves at breakneck speed, and brings innovation to many products on the market today, and none more than air conditioning, in fact according to a survey in 2000, air conditioning/refrigeration was named among the ten greatest mechanical engineering achievements of the 20th century.

Air conditioning has a long history and in fact has roots in second century China, where the inventor Ding Huane crafted a manually powered rotary fan. Air cooling intrigued the great American Inventor Benjamin Franklin, who in 1758 conducted experiments with evaporation and alcohol to attain freezing temperatures.

In 1902 Willis Haviland Carrier, invented the first modern air conditioner by experimenting and borrowing the concepts of mechanical refrigeration established in earlier years, his system sent air through coils filled with cold water, his hard work developed, and in 1933 the Carrier Air Conditioning Company of America developed an air conditioner using a belt-driven condensing unit and associated blower, and this device became the model in the growing US marketplace for air cooling systems.

Today things are very different and sophisticated air conditioning units are on the market, and as summer approaches, bringing soaring temperatures and humidity, people in the UK are now turning to the marvel of discovery and invention the air conditioner.

These comfort units that homeowners and businesses alike now take for granted with the flip of a switch, but in fact are the end product of nearly a century of engineering development in cooling, heating and energy efficiency.

Air conditioning today has grown form a luxury to a necessity and has contributed in many ways to the quality of life in the UK, and more and more consumers are researching the best units to have installed.

As everyone is looking to reduce utilities bills, consider the possibility of having a unit that can cool in the summer and heat in the winter that is the difference between a heat pump and a normal air conditioner, which can offer heat in a home as well as cool it when needed.

A heat pump can change which coil is the condenser and which the evaporator, and uses the same basic refrigeration cycle to offer heating, which can heat a room at an outdoor temperature as low as -15 degrees centigrade, it is a very effective heating method and can consume up to only 0.63 kW at a heating capacity of 3.2 kW.

A spokesman for Climachill air conditioning specialists, a family owner and run business and is Sussex’s leading air conditioning contractors said, “we bring air conditioning solutions to your home or workplace at a very affordable cost effective price, and of course we do not compromise on quality, it is now becoming more common to install air conditioning into domestic environments and we install wall split systems into many homes”.

Thinking about installing air conditioning in your home or office?, seek the help and advice of a reputable installer and they will take into consideration your circumstances, how large is the area to be air conditioned, how large is the family, what temperatures are required, and give you the best possible advice, act now and have a system in place for next summer.
