  • outdoor,
  • internal.

unit indoors is responsible for the removal of condensate, it also supplies air cooled outdoor unit.Both units are connected by copper tubes through which coolant is circulated.Most air conditioners - a freon.Since the motor is located inside the outdoor unit, the noise level in the room is low enough.

location and type of indoor unit is selected independently, guided by the characteristics and size of the room.

Advantages dvuhblokovoy split system:

  • low noise;
  • optimal cooling capacity from 1.5 to 8.5 kW;
  • affordable price;
  • rapid cooling of the premises;
  • compactness;
  • remote control;
  • many advanced features;
  • different design solutions;
  • energy savings.

Disadvantages dvuhblokovoy split system:

  • small area of ​​operation;
  • lack of fresh air ventilation function;
  • inability to transport with frequent crossings.

1. Split the system, reviews of which most are positive - it's air conditioning inverter type.It differs from conventional in that cooling air when the desired temperature has been reached, it is not turned off, and reduces the power of work and continually maintains the set temperature.The usual split-system is switched on and off, thereby using electricity much more than's inventory.

2. Multi-split systems are different in that the outdoor unit is connected from two to five external units.They are mounted, for example, in the office or, if the design of the facade of the house does not allow to install a lot of outdoor units.

ducted split systems

ducted split systems have a complex structure and working principle:

  1. outdoor unit, which is necessarily in contact with fresh air.On the outside air enters the unit pretochnuyu system that supplies fresh air into the room through an air valve with electric drive.
  2. further split-system filters, fresh air that enters from the outside.The heater heats the air, if necessary.Sometimes water or electric.
  3. A channel fan with silencer air flow enters the supply channel intake system.Next
  4. air enters the air conditioning unit, which brought to the desired temperature.
  5. through the air with a grating, the air is provided in the room.Grilles are made of sheet metal, and can be either wall or ceiling.

One of the main advantages of split-channel system is the air-conditioning room, divided into different rooms.If the wall split system installed in one room, then ducted split systems, air is fed to multiple rooms.The disadvantages of such split systems is a complex installation and the inability to separate temperature control in different rooms.It is also necessary to install them false ceiling or podpotolochnye space.

Floor split systems

Enough multifunctional conditioner that does not require a fixed installation.Usually it is being bought for rented apartments, where there is a need to move, and an expensive present owners do not want to do.operation process is reduced to the consolidation of the condensation pipe in the window, and the inclusion of a remote control button.
