What are the benefits of an air conditioning system?
A well designed system can provide you and your employees with thermal comfort throughout the year as they can provide heating and cooling. Air conditioners also contain anti-fungus filters so they provide air purification by cleaning and freshening the air in your working environment.
Is air conditioning expensive to run?
An air conditioning unit uses the energy in the air around it and because this air is free it makes the unit very efficient. For every 1kw of electricity that is used to power the air conditioning unit, typically 3-4kw of heating or cooling is generated.
What is air conditioning and how does it work?
The term air conditioning generally relates to cooling but it can also refer to heating or ventilation of your indoor environment. An air conditioning unit is essentially a refrigerator which removes heat from one area, discharging it into another. The unit contains a compressor which drives refrigerant through two coils; one hot and one cold. The warm air in the room is taken into the compressor and passed over the cold coil, which cools and dries it. This cool air is then blown into the room and the hot air is expelled outside.
