A new technology (developed in Germany and Europe) uses shape-memory metals that heat up when stretched and cool down when released. This cooling effect would make refrigerators and air conditioners much more efficient.

When it does happen, it can be VERY expensive to replace the refrigerant. When my evaporator died last year, I was happy that it was under warranty, which covered the $2000 part, but I was unhappy to learn that it DIDNT cover the $3500 of refrigerant that leaked out.
