refrigeration and air conditioning sector

The refrigeration and air conditioning sector involves systems designed to control temperature and humidity for comfort, preservation, and industrial purposes. Refrigeration keeps food and medicines fresh by removing heat, while air conditioning cools and dehumidifies indoor spaces for comfort in homes, offices, and vehicles. These systems work by transferring heat from one area to another using refrigerants, compressors, and evaporators. The sector includes designing, installing, maintaining, and repairing these systems, ensuring efficient operation and energy use. It plays a vital role in health, safety, and quality of life, supporting food supply chains, healthcare, and workplace comfort.
