Why Use Aluminium Foil in Air Conditioners?

Aluminium foil is widely used in air conditioning systems for several reasons:

High Thermal Conductivity: Aluminium is an excellent conductor of heat, which allows air conditioners to transfer heat efficiently between the refrigerant and the air.
Corrosion Resistance: Modern air conditioning units are exposed to varying environmental conditions, including moisture and chemicals. Aluminum foil’s natural corrosion resistance, especially with anti-corrosive coatings, ensures longevity.
Lightweight: Aluminium is a lightweight material, making it easy to install and reducing the overall weight of air conditioning units.
Malleability: Aluminium foil can be easily shaped into fins and other complex designs without losing its strength, making it ideal for heat exchangers.
