Air conditioning cools and dehumidifies the air. This can make a home more comfortable during hot or humid weather.
Air conditioning can be "central" (running through built in ducts and vents), window units or wall units.
The use of a ceiling fan in conjunction with air conditioning can increase energy efficiency.
Alternatives
There are other techniques to make a home more comfortable when it's hot and humid. One is to blow air over a block of ice. (more...)
Warning
Air conditioners can be harmed by turning them on when it's already cool (below 70 degrees Fahrenheit).
Terms
- Air conditioning is abbreviated a/c or sometimes just ac.
- Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)
