Removing heat from the air Believe it or not, creating “cold” isn't actually a thing. Cold is just how we describe a lack of thermal heat. Your air conditioner does not “create” cold air, it removes heat from warm air.
As the liquid refrigerant inside the evaporator coil converts to gas, heat from the indoor air is absorbed into the refrigerant, thus cooling the air as it passes over the coil. The indoor unit's blower fan then pumps the chilled air back through the home's ductwork out into the various living areas.

The System.Diagnostics.Process class has a property containing the start time which you can use to calculate how long it has been running:
var current = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess(); DateTime startedAt = current.StartTime Use StopWatch class for this feature.
