Carrier Air Conditioning vital to the Benjamin Franklin House
restoration
Two Carrier R410A Split system air conditioners are
being used to meet specialist cooling requirements
within a recently restored and opened, Grade 1 listed,
Georgian House in central London, that was once the
London home of Dr Benjamin Franklin – scientist,
diplomat, philosopher, inventor, Founding Father of the
United States and much more than most Brits or Americans
usually know.
The House, at 36 Craven Street, is the world’s only
remaining Franklin home and is one of the most important
Anglo-American heritage sites on either side of the
Atlantic. Now it contains a hi-tech, Historical
Experience tourist offering, and a Student Science
Centre and research facility.
The air conditioning installation is vital to the
preservation of historic items in the cellar displays
and to visitor comfort during the first of several
audio-visual experiences in the house. The second system
keeps the audio-visual control equipment itself cool in
its behind the scenes storage location at the top of the
house.
Benjamin Franklin conducted numerous important
experiments in the House between 1757 and 1775 including
measuring the effects of the Gulf Stream, exploring
Daylight Saving Time and exploring bi-focal lenses.
The building restoration took eight years and has cost
£3 million, raised through sponsorship and the Heritage
Lottery Fund. A further £1 million is still needed to
secure the future of the building and the fulfilment of
its educational aims.
