How Do Split Systems Function?

The split systems of air conditioning have the name because of one half of this system (condenser) being outside the home, while the other portion (fan coil) is located inside. When cooling, the warm air in the room is taken in from the fan coil and taken out, resulting into cool air recirculating back into the home. Reverse cycle allows that the heating system to run in reverse in order to provide warmth on cold winter days.

Split air conditioning systems are installed in individual rooms, zones or rooms joined by copper piping to an outdoor unit (condenser). Multiple-headed split-air conditioning units can be used in as many as nine rooms with just one outdoor unit as well as allowing an individual temperature control for each room.

What Are The Running Costs For Split Systems?

One of the brands we recommend of Split Systems is Mitsubishi Electric. For an Mitsubishi Electric GE Series 2.5KW Split System, installed in the smallest of rooms, providing regular cooling and heating throughout the summer and winter time, the annual running cost would be $272.34.

Reducing the Split System Operating Costs

It doesn’t take much to save on running expenses by using the Split System. Depending on the model you buy, as well as its star rating, you will be able to determine how much you’ll save per year. But looking beyond the initial price to how you utilize the Split System can help as well.

Tips For Using Split Systems

  • Set the thermostat to 24C and 26C to allow for cooling. Every degree lower in summer increases the running cost by about 10%..
  • Choose the economy option If your split system comes with one and regularly service your air conditioning.
  • Keep the sun’s heat out by closing curtains and blinds in the morning. Close doors and windows to areas that are cooling when it is split running.
  • If the split system is turned off and the cooler is outside, it is recommended to open the doors as well as windows in order to let cool air inside.
  • Insulate your home to keep the warm summer days out and cool in during winter.
  • Dress according to the weather.

Why Select A Split System?

The wall mounted air conditioning system is among the most commonly used air conditioning systems for homes, as they are affordable and easily to maintain.

Inverter Technology

Inverter technology is your mainstay for comfort all through the year since it keeps the temperature constant, cuts costs (less energy use) and generates less sound when it is employed. This is accomplished by controlling the compressor rotation speed more precisely.

Affordable

Wall mounted wall mounted split AC system are best economical option for a single room apartment or small house as they are relatively cheap to purchase (depending on how many indoor units you need) and there is no duct work required.

Independent Temperature Control

Each indoor unit has the ability to regulate the space it is located in, so each room could have different temperatures.

Air Quality

Many Split air conditioners come with air filtering functions and humidity control which regulate the amount of dust and humidity inside the space. This allows for sensitive customers (children or elderly, asthmatic or allergic customers) an ease of mind and body.

Multi-Head Split Systems

Multi-Head Split Systems allow different indoor units to connect to a single outdoor condenser which provides the comfort of having the most suitable Air conditioner (in terms of output and physical restrictions) for a specific room.
