Why do we use air conditioning in homes?

We use air conditioning to "condition the air" in our homes to make the dwellings more comfortable. There are a number of geoclimatic areas where the weather brings in long stretchs of hot days (and nights). Temperatures in excess of 90 °F (or even 100 °F)are possible for many days in a row, and air conditioning provides a way to take the edge off this heat inside our homes. We can use refrigeration technology to maintain our homes at something a shade under 80 °F so we can be more comfortable.

Diff between aircondition refrigeration?

Air conditioning refers to the cooling and dehumidification of indoor air in a confined space, like a room or a building. Refrigeration, on the other hand, involves the cooling and preservation of perishable items or goods at a specific temperature, such as in refrigerators, freezers, or cold storage units. While both use similar principles of heat transfer and compression cycles, the main difference lies in their intended purposes and applications.
