    Wanna know a fun fact?

    Air conditioning stops working effectively around 120F and decreases in efficiency as it gets hotter because the condenser cannot effectively discharge heat into the air.

    Freshwater sources are drying up worldwide with absolute proof and nobody cares.

    Take a serious look at moving somewhere moderate. The ultra wealthy are all building fortified compounds in the Michigan peninsula. Why?

      It’s possible to engineer a condenser that outputs 60-80°C using exotic gases/coolant blends, but you’re right, the standard residential A/C is going to be operating at around 48°C.
