Tips on Buying a Split Air-Conditioner
![]() |
Air- Conditioner- yester-years’ icon of luxury- has become a basic necessity of every household. The rising global warming on Earth has resulted in the growing use of Air Conditioners (AC).
Air conditioners are broadly classified into three types- window mounted, wall mounted and free-standing portable air conditioners. In this article, we are talking about split air conditioners (the wall-mounted types) and the things to keep in mind while purchasing the same. Read on.
Size: The size of split air conditioner depends upon the size of your room. Let us take the case of a 35 sq. ft. area. This will need 0.75-ton split air conditioner. A two-ton AC will be suited for a room size of around 250 sq. ft.
Zones: The choice of a split air conditioner also depends upon the number of rooms that require the cool breeze of the AC. For example, if your home consists of multiple rooms, you should choose dual zone or triple zone split air conditioner. The basic concept is the number of air handles that are required to cool a room. Go for one air handle split air conditioner if it is an open area that has multiple rooms in it.
Tubing: Tubing is an additional component that ensures smooth working of a split air conditioner. Tubing acts as a connector between the indoor and outdoor units. Purchase this component from the market, keeping in mind the distance between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit.
Installation cost: You should not forget to include the cost of installation of the split air conditioner. Installing a split air conditioner is more complicated than a installing a window AC. Call on a professional to install the split air conditioner properly.
