What is a Split Type Air Conditioning Unit?

A split type air conditioning unit offers energy efficiency solutions, optimum performance and low maintenance. Also known as a ductless air conditioning unit, this type of system is ideal for all types of living spaces and environments. As the name implies, the system does not use ducts to circulate the air.

The split type air conditioning system is typically comprised of two or more units; the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. Some systems are multi-split and can connect up to five indoor units to a single outdoor unit. The indoor unit consists of a cooling coil or evaporator and a cooling fan. The outdoor unit contains a condenser, compressor and expansion valve. The outdoor unit is on the ground or hung on a wall with the use of brackets.

Today, many central air conditioning systems are split type air conditioning units. They are one of the most popular types of air conditioning units that come with numerous benefits.

Easy Installation

A split type air conditioning system does not require ductwork. Because of this great feature, installation is easy to set up. In addition, the indoor unit can be up to 100 feet from the outdoor condenser and still be efficient.

The only space needed is a tiny hole in the wall for the control wiring and tubing. As well, the condenser unit can be placed anywhere, even on a rooftop if needed.

Low Maintenance

Split type air conditioning systems require very little maintenance. For optimum performance, the air filters need routinely cleaned every so often. The outdoor unit also needs to be cleaned on occasion to remove any debris or leaves that can be around the coil. That way you have thorough airflow.

Additionally, the outdoor units are intentionally designed for easy access. This makes it stress-free for maintenance and repairs if needed.

Minimal Noise

The split type air conditioning system is extremely quiet. In fact, this type of system is often used in libraries, bedrooms and classrooms where loud noises need to be non-existent. The outdoor unit can easily be installed in an area that will not be an annoyance such as near an enclosure or under a window.

Cost Effective

One of the greatest benefits of this type of system is that it is very cost effective. Split air conditioning systems provide localized cooling and heating where certain rooms can be cooled or heated at certain times. For instance, in the summer you can cool the bedroom at night and the living areas in the day.

This type of localized control for heating and cooling drastically reduces energy usage and costs. In truth, split air conditioning units are one of the most cost effective systems around.

Offers Cooling and Heating

Today, many split air conditioning systems come with numerous options such as cooling only, cooling and dehumidifying and ductless heating. As a matter of fact, this type of system can provide temperature control with additional heating to keep you comfortable year round.

User Friendly and Attractive Design

Most units come with a wall mounted thermostat and remote control, making it easy to adjust temperatures to your liking. As well, the split air conditioning unit is not a huge device that sets in your window. The system blends nicely with your décor.
