These students, driven by a daring idea, succeeded in creating the first absorption fridge—a refrigeration breakthrough that even captured the admiration of Albert Einstein. This marked the beginning of modern refrigeration, with Dometic emerging as pioneers in the field, continuing to serve millions worldwide.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1071\/8320\/files\/th_-_2020-10-23T101848.357_520x500_66f4baf9-8802-4e06-82c2-121056f6c562_480x480.jpg?v=1604684518\"\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eIn 1910, Arthur DeVries immigrated to the US from Holland with his family, settling in South Dakota.

Upon graduating, Arthur returned to Huron, SD, and established Art’s Sales and Service, specializing in selling Frigidaire refrigerators.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1071\/8320\/files\/unnamed_480x480.jpg?v=1604684685\"\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eArthur's passion for learning and advancing heating and cooling technologies led him to collaborate with General Electric engineers in 1932 to create the first automated coal furnace. This breakthrough eliminated the hassle of shoveling coal, un-jamming augers, and ash removal. In 1934, he expanded his offerings to include oil-fired furnaces, bringing the convenience of full automation.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAs Arthur made strides in heating and cooling advancements in the 1940s and 1950s, he received requests from local butcher shops for refrigeration solutions. This led to the installation of numerous meat lockers, enhancing the longevity of refrigerated meat and eliminating the need for ice hauling.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1071\/8320\/files\/octopus-furnace-300x455_480x480.jpg?v=1604685815\"\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe 1950s witnessed Arthur and his son building the first coin-operated laundry mat, diversifying their HVAC legacy.
