Why do we use air conditioning in homes?

We use air conditioning to "condition the air" in our homes to make the dwellings more comfortable. There are a number of geoclimatic areas where the weather brings in long stretchs of hot days (and nights). Temperatures in excess of 90 °F (or even 100 °F)are possible for many days in a row, and air conditioning provides a way to take the edge off this heat inside our homes. We can use refrigeration technology to maintain our homes at something a shade under 80 °F so we can be more comfortable.

What is geothermal air conditioning?

Geothermal air conditioning is a central cooling system that delivers cool air by pumping heat towards the ground. The difference between it, and an Air Conditioner, is that while an Air Conditioner uses a refrigeration cycle to de-humidify a room, a geothermal air conditioner takes advantage of the ground itself as a heat sink to pump the heat away from a home and into the ground.
