How Do Split Systems Function?

Systems for split air conditioners earn their name because of half this system (condenser) located outside the house , while the other portion (fan coil) is located inside. While cooling, warm air inside the room is taken in from the fan coil, and then eliminated, resulting in cool air recirculating back into the home. Reverse cycle allows heating pumps to operate in reverse, providing heating in cold weather.

Split air conditioning systems are placed in rooms, areas or multiple rooms that are connected via copper pipes to an outdoor unit (condenser). Multi-head split air conditioning systems can be used for up to nine rooms and only one outdoor unit permitting individual temperature control of each room.

What Are The Ongoing Costs With Split Systems?

One of the brands we recommend for Split Systems is Mitsubishi Electric. For a Mitsubishi Electric GE Series 2.5KW Split System, installed in a small room providing regular heating & cooling during the summer and winter months, the annual running cost will be $272.34.

  • Utilize the economy setting when your split has one. Ensure that you regularly service your air cooling system.
  • Keep the sun’s heat out by closing curtains and external blinds in the morning. Close doors and windows to areas being cooled when you have the split unit on.
  • When the split system is switched off , and the cooler outside, it is recommended to open the doors or windows and let cool air circulate.

Why Select A Split System?

Wall mounted split air conditioning systems are the most frequently owned residential air conditioning system because they’re affordable and easy to maintain.

Affordable

Independent Temperature Control

Each indoor unit has the ability to control the area it is located in, which means that each room is able to have different temperature.

Air Quality

A lot of split air conditioning systems include air filtering and humidity control features that control the amount of dust and humidity inside the space. This provides those with sensitive skin (children and elderly, asthmatic or allergic customers) the peace of body and mind.

Multi-Head Split Systems
