How Do Split Systems Work?

Systems for split air conditioners are their name because half of that system (condenser) is located outside of the house while the other portion (fan coil) is installed inside. In cooling, hot air that is inside the room is absorbed from the fan coil and taken out, resulting into cool air flowing back into the home. In reverse mode, it allows that the heating system to run in reverse, providing heating during cold days.

The split system of air conditioning are placed in rooms, areas or even multiple rooms linked by copper pipe into an outdoor unit (condenser). Multi-head split air conditioning systems can be used for up to nine rooms and just one outdoor unit and allow for separate temperature control for each room.

One of the top brands to use for Split Systems is Mitsubishi Electric. For a Mitsubishi Electric GE Series 2.5KW Split System, installed in a small room providing regular cooling and heating during the winter and summer periods, the annual running cost is $272.34.

  • Use the economy setting If your split system comes with one. Also, you should regularly check the condition of your air conditioner.
  • Keep the sun’s heat out by closing curtains as well as external blinds during the daytime. Close windows and doors to areas that are cooled when it is split operating.

  • Dress according to the weather conditions.

Why Choose Split Systems?

Wall mounted split air conditioning systems are the most commonly owned by homeowners who own a residential air conditioning system because they are cost-effective and simple to maintain.

Inverter Technology

Inverter technology is the most effective way to enjoy more comfort throughout the year as it maintains the temperature constant, cuts costs (less energy use) and generates less sound when it is it is used. This is achieved by controlling the compressor rotation speed more precisely.

Affordable

Wall mounted split AC systems are the best affordable option for a one room, apartment or small house because they are relatively inexpensive to buy (depending on how many indoor units you need) and there is no installation of ducts.

Independent Temperature Control

Each indoor unit is able to control the room that it is placed in, which means that each room can have a different temperature.

Air Quality

Many AC splits come with air filtering and humidity control features that regulate the amount of dust and humidity inside the space. This allows for sensitive customers (children, elderly, asthmatic or allergic people) the peace of mind and body.

Multi-Head Split Systems

Multi-Head Split Systems allow multiple indoor units to connect to a single outdoor condenser which provides the convenience of having the perfect AC (in terms of output and physical limitations) for a specific room.
