Another innovation to boost the preservation industry; this cost-effective refrigerator is designed to be fueled by water and has been scientifically proven to work just like the electricity ones. The main difference lies with the efficiency and the recent one is said to restructure the cooling business.
For a century, there hasn’t been any alternative to the electricity draining fridges. This has in turn forced many to acquire the ones that are expensive to maintain. This has also deterred the health sector in a bid to reach out to the unfortunate ones who need medical attendance since there is no energy to maintain the vaccines that need to be stored in cold containers for them to work as required. But with the intervention of a Briton inventor, everything seems to fall in place. The inexpensive and uncomplicated fridge is said to be the gateway to the Promised Land.
Ian Tansley’s efforts are bound to not only benefit man but the environment as well. The new creation can go as far as two weeks without it being necessarily powered. It has the ability to maintain its coolness for that long with no oscillation in its temperature evidenced. This is one big step for mankind: the medicine can now reach the destined locations in time to save lives and the energy consumed appropriately.
Sure chill, the firm responsible for this innovation seems to be reaping the benefits of ten years of trial since their products have been able to be of much help in different countries and organizations. UNICEF is said to have incorporated this technology in their transportation of medicines to the Philippines to ward off diseases claiming lives of many as part of their humanitarian duties.
So what was his inspiration? Ian Tansley was strolling down the frozen lake by the Gwynedd countryside in North Wales and was pleased by how the water body maintained a frozen top and a warm bottom. He thought to himself, “Why not adopt this brilliant idea and actualize it in water-driven fridges?” and that is how it came to be. Such a notable step to take, don’t you think so?
Since then, his works have gone on to be marketed globally. He makes just any size and model you wish to acquire; from small ones to walk-in coldrooms. The walk-in cold-rooms are suitable for large storage purposes like in restaurants, manufacturing companies and supermarkets. Tansley’s firm is a sure place to get good energy saving walk-in cold-rooms to easen your task of storage.
