CO2 – Good as a Refrigerent, Better For The Environment.
October 16, 2009 By Leave a Comment
With all the environmental destruction that has been happening in every part of the world, everybody has become aware of how harmful the CFCs are in the earth's ozone layer. Little by little it is wreaking havoc in our atmosphere and the future generations will be paying a high price for what the past generations have done to the environment.The sad thing is that scientists say that for every 1% drop in the ozone layer means a 2% increase in the UV-B, the kind of ultraviolet radiation that poses the greatest risk for living things on earth. Too much exposure to UV-B rays will dramatically decrease crops production and kill off the lowest organisms in the marine food chain. This is not only limited to the marine life because everybody and everything on earth is interdependent. If it affects the other living things on earth, this destruction will create a domino effect until it affects the human beings directly.Good thing that things are changing nowadays as CO2 is being used … [Read more...]
What is SEER Ratings and Why Does It Matter
August 31, 2009 By 1 Comment
SEER stands for "Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. This is the way you can size up the energy efficiency of the air conditioning system. SEER ratings permit consumers to compare operating costs of various cooling systems and products.The higher your air conditioning's SEER rating, the better it is because it simply means that your air conditioning system is very efficient which will translate to big savings as it doesn't need so much energy to cool your place down. Unfortunately the older your air conditioning system is, the lower its SEER rating is. Normally, a good air conditioning system would give you a SEER rating of 10 but an older system will give you somewhere around half the rating of the newer system.It would be best to see your place's air conditioning system as well. Check out for air leakage, duct system and have your system checked for routine maintenance and other factors that would lead to over taxing your system.Aside from money you are going to save by … [Read more...]
