Air conditioning- a great invention of human beings
Air Conditioning can be defined as the process through which we can make the air around us more comfortable to live in. The air around us may be hot and humid which makes it very much uncomfortable for beings stay. Sometimes due to lack of ventilation it may be very suffocative for a person to breathe. Thus the concept of air conditioning came in. Scientists started researching for things which can help with the situation and after a lot of extensive research found out an appliance or a way to get out of this situation.
Many people have the misconception that air conditioners are only made for cooling purposes whether it is a house or an industrial storage house. Conditioning of the air may include heating as well as cooling of the air. It may also include making the air disinfected from germs and dust. You may find them all over the world whether it may be a residential house, an office building or a factory.Whenever you need a clean and a pollution free area or a room you will surely have the need for an air conditioner. Electrical industries which need to make microchips, integrated circuits or minute instruments have a need for air conditioners. Pharmaceutical industries which need to make highly sophisticated machines also have the need for the same. Another important sector where this is highly used is in the hospital and the hospitality industry. Nowadays hospitals have centralized air conditioning systems.
This has been done for not only keeping the inside air moderate and comfortable but to keep it away from germs and outside pollutants. High class or star rated hotels too have centralized air conditioning systems which allows people to breathe fresh air inside. There is another advantage of air conditioners is that it helps to remove humidity from the air and thus you feel hundred percent comfortable in all climatic conditions.
There are many disadvantages too. The gas which is used for cooling is very harmful for the air outside. Scientists and environmental researchers say that the gas directly affects the ozone layer and promotes in thinning it, thus making the residents of this world more vulnerable to ultra violet rays from the sun. Air conditioning also promotes the growth of germs and much type of micro-organisms which directly flows into the respiratory system of the person. This degenerates the health in the long run.
