How Does A Split System Air Conditioner Work?
A split system air conditioning system uses two different units:
- An indoor air handling unit
- Outdoor compressor unit
These are connected through copper piping that contains a refrigerant. This product helps the heat move from the indoor handling unit to the outdoor unit—where it’s released.
Many people don’t realise that air conditioners actually remove heat from the air, allowing the existing air in the building to cool down.
What is a Split System Air Conditioner suitable for?
Split system air conditioners are typically suitable for homes and office buildings. Many commercial buildings use these types of air conditioning because they are efficient and reduce noise inside the building.
However, larger buildings—like multi-story apartments—might not be a good option for these air conditioners. The problem lies in the distance from one unit to the other. The distance between the two units may simply require too much duct-work.
Benefits of using a Split System Air Conditioner
There are several benefits to using these units. First of all, they are very quiet compared to other types of air conditioners, especially as most systems now use inverter technology. That’s one reason why so many customers prefer these systems. Secondly, they are easy to control and regulate the room temperature—which is a serious benefit in the hot Brisbane summers. Thirdly, they are a lot more energy efficient than in the past.
Finally, nowadays almost all of these types of split system air conditioning units come with a heating option, commonly known as reverse cycling, which means that you can stay cool in summer AND warm in winter, depending on the season.
