Split System Air Conditioners - Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between split system and box air conditioners?

Split system air conditioners are designed with two separate units, one inside and one outside, offering a stronger cooling function and quieter performance. Box (window/wall) units, comparatively, are all-in-one air con systems installed through a window or wall opening, making them cheaper and easier to install but generally less powerful.

Split system air conditioners do cost more to install than window air cons because they require licensed technicians and proper placement of indoor and outdoor units. However, the higher installation cost is often offset by better cooling, lower noise levels and improved energy efficiency in the long run.

The main reasons why people may be hesitant to buy a split air con is the upfront installation cost and the need to hire for professional mounting. They are also fixed in place, so they’re unfortunately not suitable for renters or temporary setups.

Split systems come in a range of capacities and can cool anything from small bedrooms to large open-plan living areas. Choosing the right air con for your space can be determined by kilowatts, with larger spaces needing a higher kW output (7 to 10kW while smaller rooms may only need smaller measures like 2.5kW.

Yes, most modern split systems are reverse cycle air conditioners, meaning they can both cool and heat your home across the seasons. This means rather than shopping for a seasonal fan or heater, you can enjoy the perfect temperature control for every season with just one purchase.

What Are Split System Air Conditioners? 

You may have heard of the term ‘split cycle air conditioners’, but what does it actually mean? Split cycle systems are one of the more popular ways to heat or cool the individual rooms in your home. Unlike ducted air conditioners, split-cycle units can be individually placed in the rooms that you need them most, giving you the versatility to turn on and off different rooms as needed.  

The setup of split-cycle air conditioning units is also a little bit different. With two separate units, they come with an indoor unit that spreads the temp-controlled air into your room, and an outdoor unit that handles all the backend heating and cooling processes. With a ‘split’ design, this allows the unit itself to operate quietly in the background whilst delivering reliable temperature control whenever and wherever you need it most. So, whether you’re cooling down your bedroom, living room or open-plan space during summer, you can enjoy the convenience of split-cycle air cons without the need for ducting. 

Types of Split System Air Conditioning Units 

While all split system aircons are designed to help you seamlessly control your indoor living areas, there are a few types of air conditioning units you can choose from, with unique features and functions that are well-suited to a range of environments based on your needs. The most popular types of air conditioners include: 

Reverse Cycle Air Conditioners 

Reverse cycle split aircons are designed to transfer heat rather than generate it, helping heat or cool your home more efficiently. When you’re trying to cool down your room, these air conditioners extract the warm air from inside and release it outdoors, leaving you with a cooler temperature inside. On the other hand, when you want to heat your room, you draw in heat from the outside air and pump it into your desired area. 

Inverter Air Conditioners 

Instead of switching on and off like traditional air conditioning units, inverter air conditioners work by automatically adjusting the speed of the compressor to maintain a consistent temperature at all times. As a more energy efficient aircon model, this means they can increase or decrease their power as needed to maintain a comfy temperature as you need it. 

Cooling Only Air Conditioners 

You’ll find a range of split system air conditioning units at Stan Cash that come with ‘cooling only’ functions. This means that these models are designed purely to keep your home cool and comfortable during the warmer months. 

How To Choose the Best Air Con for Your Space 

Choosing the right air conditioning setup for your space comes down to a wide variety of factors that can influence your air flow and ultimate comfort. This means that when you’re shopping for a split system air conditioning unit, you should be asking yourself the following questions: 

What size is the room I need to heat or cool? 

To make sure you choose a split cycle aircon that adequately heats or cools your room, it’s important to consider the room size to determine the power and kW rating you’ll need to sustain the temperature control of your room for as long as you need. 

How are you going to manage running costs? 

Air conditioners are known to be costly to run, but there are many ways you can help to keep your running costs lower and improve your energy efficiency. Choosing models with eco modes and strong star ratings will help you to reduce your power consumption and cool/heat your room in comfort without stressing about the electrical bill. 

What type of features are you looking for? 

Modern split system air conditioners come with a range of modern features that make heating and cooling your area that much more convenient and efficient. This includes popular features like Wi-Fi connectivity, timers, sleep modes, and air purification filters. Read the full product description to learn about what features your desired split system model offers. 

Where will the split-cycle units be installed? 

Another important consideration is knowing where your split-cycle unit will be installed. Since split-cycle units come with both indoor and outdoor units, you need to consider the indoor and outdoor wall space, noise sensitivity, and how easy the systems are to install.
