How Do Split Systems Function?

Air conditioning splits are their name due to half that system (condenser) being located outside the home, while the other part (fan coil) is installed inside. When it cools, hot air that is inside the room is brought in by the fan coil before being eliminated, resulting in cool air being recirculated back into the home. In reverse mode, it allows that the heating system to run in reverse to provide heat during colder days.

Air conditioning split systems can be placed in rooms, areas or multiple rooms joined by copper piping into an outdoor unit (condenser). Multiple-headed split-air conditioning units can be used for more than nine rooms and only one outdoor unit as well as allowing the control of temperature for each room.

One of our recommended brands of Split Systems is Mitsubishi Electric. For the Mitsubishi Electric GE Series 2.5KW Split System, installed in a small room providing regular cooling and heating during the winter and summer periods and the annual running costs would be $272.34.

Guide to Operating A Split System

  • Set the thermostat to 24C and 26C to allow for cooling. Every degree lower in summer will increase your running costs by about 10%..
  • Use the economy setting in the event that your split system is equipped with one and regularly service your air cooling system.
  • Make sure that the sun’s heat is kept out by closing curtains and blinds in the morning. Close all doors and windows in areas being cooled when it is split in operation.
  • If the split system is switched off and its cooler outside, open the doors and windows to let the cool air circulate.
  • Insulate your home to keep warm summer days out and cool in the winter months.
  • Wear clothes that are appropriate for the weather conditions.

Why Select A Split System?

Wall mounted split air conditioning systems are the most frequently owned by homeowners who own a residential air conditioning system, as they are affordable and easily to maintain.

Inverter Technology

Inverter technology is the best option for greater comfort throughout the year since it keeps an even temperature, helps save costs (less energy use) and produces relatively less noise when employed. This is achieved by controlling the compressor rotation speed more precisely.

Affordable

Wall mounted divided AC systems are the most affordable option for a one room, apartment or small house as they are relatively cheap to buy (depending on the number of indoor units you’ll need) and do not require duct work required.

Independent Temperature Control

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

Air Quality

A lot of AC splits come with air filtering and humidity control features that control the amount of dust and humidity inside the room. This can provide those with sensitive conditions (children and elderly, asthmatic or allergic customers) an ease of body and mind.

Multi-Head Split Systems

Multi-Head Split Systems allow different indoor units to connect to a single outdoor condenser which gives you satisfaction of having the ideal air conditioner (in terms of output and physical constraints) for a particular room.
