Air Conditioner is the atmospheric exchanger built by human workers with some alien Combine technology. Its primary effect on Earth atmosphere is convertion of the air into black toxic smog which is almost deadly when breathed. Certain purpose of it is unknown - maybe Combine is preparing the planet for new colonists, maybe it is just for lulz; anyway, years of this practice has made wasteland air very dangerous to breath without protecive gear, black ash has covered the ground for many miles, destroying any Earth flora and fauna. There is no ash and smog inside the plant though because of the "eye of the storm" effect. Also the height of the main smokestack is quite big, the smoke is emitted too high from the ground and is carried away by wind flows. Gordon arrives at Airex at evening of the 2nd day. The landscape is bathed in red sundown rays, dark dead sky looks down from its height. Gordon makes his way through harsh rocks, then infiltrates the complex via the ventilation system.
