	Air Conditioning & Refrigeration
		Whether at work or relaxing at home, air conditioning can make a big difference to your environment: getting the best out of the working day and enjoying to the full your home environment.
		And many more homeowners now consider air conditioning as important as their home heating system.
		Split air conditioning systems are particularly beneficial as the condenser (housing the motor, etc) is installed outside the building, ensuring quiet operation inside.

	Air Conditioning
		Air conditioning is the process by which air is cooled and dehumidified.
		The air surrounding the glass becomes cooler when it encounters the cold glass, and the water vapor the air is carrying condenses into water.

	Air conditioning - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Air conditioners (for cooling) and heat pumps (for heating) both work similarly in that heat is transferred or "pumped" from a cooler "heat-source" to a warmer "heat-sink".
		Domestic air conditioning is most prevalent and ubiquitous in developed Asian nations such as Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Hong Kong, especially in the latter two due to most of the population living in small high-rise flats.
		Air conditioning has no greater influence on health than heating—that is to say, very little—although poorly maintained air-conditioning systems (especially large, centralized systems) can occasionally promote the growth and spread of microorganisms, such as Legionella pneumophila, the infectious agent responsible for Legionnaire's disease, or thermophilic actinomycetes.

		An air conditioner (often abbreviated to AC in the United States and air-con in Australia) is an appliance or mechanism designed to extract heat from a humanly occupied space air temperature using a refrigeration cycle.
		An earlier form of air conditioning was invented in Persia (Iran) thousands of years ago in the form of wind shafts on the roof, which caught the wind and passed it through water and blew the cooled air into the building [1].

		Air-cooled air conditioners (shown in the photo): this refers to the use of air to cool the compressor and the condenser coil used to return the refrigerant gas to a liquid state.
		When an air conditioner blows warm humid building air across an evaporator coil in the air handler unit, it is not only cooling the air, it's squeezing out some of the water in that air.
		Air conditioning capacity requirement - rule of thumb for relatively cool climates such as the Northeastern United States: one ton per 400 sq.ft. (Commercial) or one ton per 500 to 1000 sq.ft. (Residential) or one ton per 400 to 800 sq.ft. (Space Pak Systems).

	Curved Air : Air Conditioning - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		In its initial vinyl form, Curved Air's debut album is one of the prog rock movement's most prized artifacts -- not for the music (for that, it goes without saying, is flawless), but for the picture-disc format which had never previously graced a 12" rock record.
		Curved Air were an unwieldy beast at the best of times, an uneasy liaison between Sonja Kristina's rampant rock sensibilities and her bandmates' undisguised virtuosity.
		Indeed, Air Conditioning rates among the great debut albums of 1970s rock, a hybrid whose breathless audacity stands in starkly good-natured contrast to the po-faced noodlings of the genre's other leading progenitors.

		Let's face it: when it's 95 and humid outside, and you've been stuck in the car for six hours with three rowdy kids, one slobbering canine and a grouchy in-law, having working AC might just be the only thing that keeps you from that one-way ticket to the funny farm.
		All you have to do is check to see that you're getting some cold air coming out of the vents when you turn your AC on.
		The bottom line, though, is this: if you're getting cold air out of the vents, it's not worth messing with the AC at all.
