Air conditioners, although they’re great in tropical climates, are not known for being the most environmentally friendly of products. They use a lot of energy and have a high level of carbon emissions.
In recent years however, efforts have been made to produce air conditioning units that are friendlier to the environment. For example a model has been introduced recently that reduced CO2, consumes a low amount of energy and is made from completely natural materials.

The Cool Phase units save between 600-800kg of Carbon Dioxide per year, and don’t contain any ozone damaging refrigerants. The systems are made from completely compostable materials and once they reach the end of their life, are completely recyclable. This is a pertinent example of how the air conditioning industry can adapt their systems to reduce the impact they have on the environment.

The system also has numerous financial benefits, costing only 10p per day to power and allowing you to save the cost of an engineer by easily replacing the filters yourself. The units also recover and hold heat from their surrounding during the daytime, so they don’t require any additional power to run in the mornings. This will not only drastically reduce the running costs of the system, but will also make the unit more environmentally friendly.

Many major companies are attempting to follow the example set by this new breed of air conditioners, with both Daikin air conditioning and Toshiba air conditioning now putting more time, research and finances into reducing the negative impact air conditioing units can have on the environment.

If you’re willing to spend the time doing some research and shopping around, you’ll be able to find air conditioning units that are not only friendly to the environment but are much less expensive to run. So if you’re looking for a way to keep your home, office or garage cool, an air conditioning unit might be more affordable than you think.
