Split

A split system, also known as a split air conditioner or split heat pump, is a type of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system that consists of two main components: an outdoor unit and an indoor unit. These units are connected by refrigerant lines and electrical wiring.

Controls and Thermostat: The indoor unit includes controls and a thermostat for adjusting the temperature, fan speed, and other settings. These controls allow the user to set their desired comfort level.

Split systems offer several advantages:

Installation Flexibility: The separation of the outdoor and indoor units allows for more flexibility in installation. The indoor unit can be mounted on a wall, ceiling, or floor, while the outdoor unit can be placed outside the building.

Zoning Capabilities: Split systems can be designed to provide zoning capabilities, allowing for independent temperature control in different areas or rooms. This helps optimize energy efficiency by only cooling or heating occupied spaces.

Quiet Operation: Since the noisy components, such as the compressor and condenser fan, are located in the outdoor unit, split systems tend to operate quietly indoors.

Energy Efficiency: Split systems often incorporate energy-saving features, such as variable-speed compressors and programmable thermostats, which help reduce energy consumption and optimize comfort.

Split systems are commonly used in residential homes, small offices, retail spaces, and other applications where individual control, quiet operation, and installation flexibility are desired. They provide efficient cooling and heating solutions while maintaining a comfortable indoor environment.
