What Is Split System Air Conditioning?
Split system air conditioning systems consist of an indoor wall mounted unit that blows cool air into the room, and an outdoor unit that dissipates the heat from the cooled area. Refrigerants are used to cool or heat the air. Split systems utilize DC inverter technology, which means that they automatically regulate the power applied to the compressor to provide more precise climate control, while using less energy.
The split systems range from 2.6kW to 9.5kW in cooling capacity. The various sleek designs of the indoor wall-mounted unit will complement the modern surroundings of your home or office. The indoor unit also compliments the multi split air conditioning system, thus delivering a consistent appearance throughout when multi split system installation are mixed with single split systems.

How Does Split System Air Conditioning Work
Split system air conditioning works by separating the cooling system into two main units: one inside the building and one outside. Here’s how it works step by step:
Indoor Unit (Evaporator)
This unit is installed inside the room or building. It contains the evaporator coil and a fan. The fan draws warm air from the room and passes it over the evaporator coil, which contains cold refrigerant. As the air passes over the coil, the refrigerant absorbs the heat, cooling the air. The fan then blows the cooled air back into the room
Outdoor Unit (Condenser)
This unit is installed outside the building. It houses the compressor, condenser coil, and a fan. The refrigerant that absorbed heat indoors is pumped to the outdoor unit by the compressor. The outdoor fan blows air over the condenser coil, releasing the absorbed heat into the outside air. The refrigerant is then cooled and sent back to the indoor unit to repeat the cycle.
Refrigerant Cycle
A refrigerant is a special fluid that carries heat from inside to outside. It cycles between the indoor and outdoor units, continuously removing heat from the indoor air and releasing it outdoors.
Thermostat and Control
The system uses a thermostat to monitor the room temperature. When the temperature rises above your set level, the system turns on and starts cooling. Once the desired temperature is reached, the system turns off or switches to fan mode to maintain comfort.
