Is Air Conditioning Safe?

Air conditioning (abbreviated as AC) is primarily a device that allows the temperature

to be controlled within a confined environment, creating a pleasant atmosphere independent of the weather outside. A common complaint with these devices is that it creates dry air; however some of the newer units allow humidity levels to be controlled to help eliminate this problem.

There are rumours that air conditioning has been linked to some serious diseases, while there may have been some truth to this in the past, new units are much safer due to the air being properly filtered and purified to remove dust and bacteria; this achieved through the use of these filters:

Dust Filters

These simply filter out the larger dust molecules.

Cleaning Filters

These filter out the smaller dust particles and microorganisms that create bacteria.

Air conditioning can actually have some positive health benefits. For example, it can help to save elderly lives during heat waves; some local authorities have setup centres for people without AC which can be utilised during heat waves. It can also provide benefits to sufferers of allergies and asthma, for example, it can help sufferers of hay fever by removing pollen from the air.

Most problems with AC are a result of improper installation or care. For this reason you should always hire a professional to perform installation. It is also important to implement a regular maintenance program to ensure your unit remains running at full efficiency; you can refer to the user manual for assistance with manually maintenance.

Through correct installation and regular maintenance air conditioning is very safe indeed. There is evidence of this in today's society, simply look at how common it is in both the residential and industrial sectors, with AC being commonly installed in premises such as homes, schools, universities and hospitals.
