ROARING 20'S PARTY |
![]() |
What with Prohibition, suffragettes and jazz, is it any wonder Willis Carrier invented the centrifugal chiller to keep everyone so cool? The year was 1922. Harding and Coolidge had just won the White House. Babe Ruth was traded by the Red Sox to the Yankees to finance a Broadway show - the start of Boston's Bambino Curse. And, as the Sheik, Rudolf Valentino was winning the hearts of star-struck, albeit parched, fans at movie places across America. (With the recent discovery of King Tut's tomb seems desert movies were all the rage - even if most theaters still lacked air conditioning!)
Enter Willis Carrier's 50-ton centrifugal chiller, and the prospect of indoor comfort changed forever.
Fast forward to 1997...
Seventy-five years later, Carrier is still the driving force for indoor comfort. Plus, we're leading the way on a host of other issues of concern to you. From environmentally compatible refrigerants and indoor air quality. To energy-savvy equipment orchestrated by the keypad of state-of-the-art controls.
It's a heritage we're proud of - and one we'd like you to help us celebrate on this, the diamond anniversary of the world's first centrifugal chiller. So join the company who invented "cool" for one hot time!
Don't miss your chance to find a genuine, one-carat
