The modern air conditioning concept was first conceived and shown to the world in 1902. It was the W.H. Carrier company in New York whose name is still associated with the industry today. The invention was able to control temperature and humidity by blowing air through cold coils, which were kept immersed in cold water. The cold water was able to cool the air and also lower the humidity.

There are two separate segments of air-conditioning applications, which are known as comfort applications and process applications. Comfort applications include room conditioning to control the temperature of indoor air. Included in this are transportation vehicles such as automobiles, ships, air craft, and space ships. Process applications relate to laboratories, hospitals, factories and so on.

The first American automobile to be fitted with an air conditioner was the Nash in 1954. This was truly a product for the mass market. It was appreciated by the people because it was the first integrated system with the control in the dashboard and an electrical switch for its operation. The price was within the reach of the common masses and very much lower than competitors.

General Motors came out with an optional unit in 1954 as well in its V8 Chevrolet and Pontiac models. Later this became the basis of modern and sophisticated climate control system for automobiles.
