The assembly line method of production
All the magic happens in stage 3 of 4 – which starts with a process similar to an assembly line for a car. Here’s where our internal functional parts and [external cosmetic parts](/content/blogs/news/how-we-manufacture-your-planet-friendly-ac "How we build your planet-friendly air conditioner"/index.html) are assembled together to form your finished product.
Parts are "kitted" at several sequential stations, and your Gradient moves through the line on a rolling cart.
Operators gradually build your system from the inside-out.
Each assembly station has its own set of work instructions, describing what parts should be installed and any special notes or measurements that should be taken. Screws are tightened, seals are checked, electrical connections are made, and labels are applied.
Filling the coolant loop
Finally, your system's coolant loop is filled. For this work, our engineers designed a "fill cart" with a large pump with reversible flow to make sure that your system’s coolant loop is filled without any air bubbles. Ensuring no bubbles means that your Gradient operates at maximum efficiency.

After a check for leaks and drips, your system is ready for final testing, packaging, and shipping.
Stay tuned for a preview of how your Gradient will look on your doorstep!
Cheers to a cooler world,
