Air-conditioining in the Tropics
Regulations governing the placement of air-conditioning units and systems require work to 'design-out' energy guzzling, noisy and unsightly problems. The Tropical Green Buidling Network in conjunction with Project Airconditioning's Keiren O'Brien presented the problems and recommendations to the Urban Design Advisroy Board on the 25th September 2009. The presentation is attached. The TGBN needs to move this issue along with AIRAH and the Cairns Regional Council.
