Split system air conditioning units are ideal for apartments, condos, and multiple-unit dwellings that cannot afford central air conditioning. A split system air conditioner heats and cools the room simultaneously with the help of two separate and distinct heating and cooling units. This saves money as well as precious space. Since they do not require extensive ductwork to complete the job, they are a much more convenient option as well. Since no central ductwork is needed, there is no major installation work to complete.

Split system airconditioning systems require an electric connection to the room’s thermostat and a separate power connection to the unit itself. Most models come with built-in automatic temperature adjustment buttons that work independently. They also have built-in dehumidifiers that mechanically draw moisture from the air to keep the rooms comfortable. The moisture is removed from the air by high-tech blowers that act as condensation neutralizers.

There are two basic types of split-system airconditioning systems: manual and auto-increment. With the manual system, you need to control the opening and closing of the blower ducts manually. If you want to increase the coolness in the room, you open the ducts and allow the warm air to enter the room through the lower vents while letting the cool air through the upper vents. On the other hand, you close the vents but open the upper vents when you want to add humidity to the air. The result is the same: the warm air enters the room, and the cool air is let out through the upper vents.

Split system air conditioning units come with a thermostat usually controlled by a central air conditioning system. However, some newer air conditioning units come with a ductless thermostat that controls the thermostat and also allows for remote control of the compressor’s operation. The advantage of ductless thermostats is that it offers a great deal more flexibility. For instance, you can adjust the air temperature inside your house by adjusting the air temperature in your air conditioning unit.

The other main advantage of this air conditioning system is that it uses a separate refrigerant to provide both cooling and heating. The evaporator in a split system air conditioner has three parts: a heat-water fluid, an evaporator, and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger separates the heat energy produced by the heating process from the cold water supply. An evaporator extracts the heat from the incoming air and transfers it to the heat exchange fluid. The cooled water is then released into the indoor unit.

Installing this type of system in your home will provide many benefits for you and your family. To learn more about the benefits and technical details in preparation of the installation, it would be a good idea to speak with someone at your local HVAC contractor. There are several different types of split systems available, but the kind that is best for you depends on your needs, your preferences, and the location of your residence. If you are considering installing one of these units, it would be a good idea to talk with your contractor about the possibility of installing a split systems air conditioning system.
