Numerous attempts at room cooling can be found beginning in the mid 1800âs. These attempts became more common as the refrigeration industry developed; however, it was not until the 1900âs that the many technical problems were solved, primarily by the fledqling household refrigeration industry. Isolated installations of room cooling for residential and commercial use gave way to mass production of engineered products by the late 1920âs, setting the stage for widespread manufacture and use in the 1930âs and beyond.
