Origin of air conditioning changes workplaces and homes
The piece traces Willis Carrier’s early method to cool a printer’s shop in New York in 1902 and how modern refrigerants like Freon spurred the spread of room air conditioners. It notes the shift from water and ammonia to chemical refrigerants, the rise of air conditioned offices, stores, theatres, and homes, and the link between cool surroundings and business and sleep.
