The first AC unit was created more than 100 years ago.
Technology has changed in the last 100 years, but the principle is still the same.
The first AC unit was created to regulate the indoor temperatures, even though changes in humidity and temperature were occurring outside. In 1901, an inventor by the name of Willis Carrier created the first modern air conditioning unit. His invention turned into a multibillion-dollar business with more than 50,000 employees across the globe in 2020. The name Carrier is synonymous with AC units all over the world. My wife and I bought a new AC unit for our home last year. We were curious about the history of AC units and thought it would be a great lesson to teach our kids about history. The kids have school at home because I don’t believe public schools teach our kids the proper education. I read all about the history of the AC unit and then I gave a three day lesson on the history, science, and all of the advancements. By the end of the lesson,. The kids were well informed and ready to take a test. They learned a lot about AC units and cooling options. Maybe one day these kids will decide to learn the trade and become a certified repair person. I want my children to lead productive lives and that means finding a job or career that makes them happy and pays the bills. The HVAC repair industry is always looking for qualified candidates and the job is rewarding in a number of ways.
