CO2 Utilities

The most common public utilities in homes across America are water, gas, and electricity. Now there is one more to contend with- CO2. A carbon dioxide network will share ground under the streets with water, sewer, and gas. CO2 is great for extinguishing fires, dusting off computers and electronics among other things.

CO2 has so many great uses. When enough of it is released at one time it creates a rapid cooling effect so it would be great for cooling down your favorite beverages or freezing your summer vegetables and seafood instantly. Even make your own carbonated drinks right at home. You want sparkling cider? No problem! Need dry ice? You have all of the liquid CO2 you need.

You can clean out the dust bunnies and cob webs in the corners with a hose and a long blast attachement. Dust all over the house without using spray chemicals or having to handle dirty rags.

Because water based overhead sprinkler systems cause damage in homes and businesses, a CO2 jet on the ceiling would be a much smarter idea. If a fire breaks out, rather than soaking all of your posessions, the fire could be extinguished quickly without sustaining any other damage. With it being part of the public grid, there could also be CO2 fire hydrants on the curbside so that when a fire breaks out they can extinguish it with very little mess.
