What should an air conditioner do for the environment?
Air conditioners affect the environment in two aspects during their life cycle, and their life cycle includes manufacturing, customer use, maintenance, and disposal at the end of the validity period.
1. Air-conditioners need electricity to operate, and power plants produce CO2 (carbon dioxide) during power generation • This is a cause of global warming.
2. The air conditioner uses fluorocarbon as the refrigerant
• Fluorocarbons affect the ozone layer and contribute to global warming.
In addition to the above, there are other things that must be implemented: effective use of resources used as raw materials for air conditioners; proper disposal and recycling of used air conditioners.
