A Short History of Air Conditioning

Last updated 9 months ago

Air conditioning got its start more than a century ago. Willis Carrier is largely responsible for modern air conditioning. In 1902, Carrier was employed in Brooklyn to help a magazine publisher, where conditions were too hot and humid for their ink to stay on the pages.

Carrier used his expertise as an employee of a fan manufacturing company to remove humidity from the air while cooling it at the same time in order to help the publisher get their magazine printed. This led to innovations where air conditioning was used in the workplace, which in turn increased productivity from happier, cooler workers and greater quality control for textiles.

Enjoy the comforts of highly-efficient air conditioning in your own home by contacting Greenwood Heating & Air at (206) 734-3370. For more information on our services, visit our website today.
