Split System Installation The Basin

How Do Split Systems Operate?

Air conditioning splits are their name because of half that system (condenser) is located outside of the home, while the other part (fan coil) is located inside. When cooling, the warm air in the room is taken in through the fan coil, and then taken out, resulting into cool air being recirculated back into the house. The reverse cycle permits your heat pump run in reverse, providing heating during colder days.

Systems for split air conditioners are installed in individual rooms, zones or rooms linked by copper pipe to an outdoor unit (condenser). Multiple-headed split-air conditioning units can be installed for up to nine rooms, with only one outdoor unit permitting separate temperature control for each room.

If you are looking for a Mitsubishi Electric GE Series 2.5KW Split System, installed in the smallest of rooms, providing regular heating & cooling during the summer and winter months, the annual running cost would be measured at $272.34.
