Environmentalists hope for silver lining to Seattle’s surging A/C demands A Seattle company received 650 calls on Monday; one in Auburn reported 300. Local HVAC companies were deluged with requests for air-conditioning systems during Seattle’s recent heat wave. But environmentalists say sweltering residents should consider their options first. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, fewer than half of the homes in Seattle had air-conditioning in 2019. After this week’s record heat wave, people are scrambling to get their hands on an A/C unit. But more A/C could mean more energy consumption and carbon emissions, straining power grids and worsening the climate change that drove the heat wave in the first place.
