Air conditioning - Types

Split System

Split system air conditioning is very common in Sydney homes. You’ve likely seen it in many homes and businesses, and it’s easy to see why.

There are two separate units in a split wall air conditioner, an indoor and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit has an evaporator coil that cools down the room, while the outdoor unit contains a condenser coil that heats up outside air to be blown into the house through ducting. This is one of the great features of reverse cycle air conditioning – the ability to both heat and cool your home with the one air con installation.

Split system air conditioning can provide more comfort and convenience than others because it uses less energy and requires little maintenance. However, this kind of system requires some special considerations when installing them in your home or office building.

The first thing you need to know about split system air conditioning units is how they work. They are designed so that there will always be enough refrigerant inside both coils at all times.This means the system can run for a long time without needing any maintenance or repairs, and it also means your air conditioner won’t overheat in hot weather. This makes them ideal for use during the summer months in Australia when the temperature hits over 35℃.

Multi system

A multi-split air conditioning system is an air conditioner that features one outdoor compressor that connects to multiple indoor units. Instead of using ducts as a ducted system would, these indoor units are instead connected by refrigerant lines through your house. Up to eight indoor units can be connected to a multi-split system, although they are more commonly seen with five or six units connected.

Because the refrigerant lines connect each indoor unit straight to the outdoor compressor, each indoor unit can be a different style. That means you could have a wall-mounted air conditioner in one room, and a ceiling cassette unit in the next.

These systems give you the ultimate flexibility when it comes to configuring the cooling system for your home. From size to style, you can customise a multi-split system to perfectly suit your home. The ability to customise these systems, make them an extremely popular system across Aussie homes and businesses.

If you think a custom multi-split system air con is the solution your home has been looking for, give the experts at Solution Hub a call. We can help you design and install your perfect cooling system.

Bulk Head Split System

Suspended ceiling mounted air conditioning systems are a compact indoor air conditioner style, perfect for residential and light commercial use. This style of air conditioner boasts incredible power and energy efficiency relative to its size and remains small enough to be barely noticeable.

Suspended ceiling mounted units feature a powerful external compressor powered by a DC motor. While the compressor has ample power, it doesn’t sacrifice quietness or efficiency. This type of air conditioner generally has lower electricity costs, even during the day when usage for air conditioners tends to increase and can balance temperature spikes to reduce the amount of energy consumed overall. The outdoor part of this system also maintains gas pressure and will display a warning when gas pressure is low.

The indoor portion of this unit is installed indoors, installed on the underside of the ceiling. Each suspended ceiling mounted air conditioning system is housed in a self-contained cabinet that comes in various designs that can be worked into any home design. This unit offers horizontal and vertical airflow, providing consistent temperature regulation no matter where it is installed.

Suspended ceiling mounted air conditioners are equipped with some of the latest technology available. They contain sensors that give you a real-time indication of the filter’s condition, giving you an idea of how long until it needs to be cleaned or replaced. You can also monitor the temperature and airflow speed, displayed on a wall-mounted display or checked remotely via an app.

Benefits of suspended ceiling mounted air conditioning include:

Floor Standing Split System

Floor standing air conditioning units are uniquely situated close to the floor, one of the most compact and subtle air conditioner designs. However, being closer to the floor doesn’t compromise their effectiveness, as they still maintain very efficient temperature regulation, perfect for homes of all sizes.

Given the design of the floor standing air conditioner model, they are highly versatile when it comes to installation. They are easily recessed into walls or out of use fireplaces to make them even less obtrusive. Whether or not you choose to install a floor standing air conditioner is purely up to your design vision. Functionally, they work the same as wall mounted air conditioning units, providing the same comfort and air filtration.

Modern homes and smaller units often choose to install floor standing units. In modern homes with larger windows, floor standing air conditioners are very convenient for cooling your house without interfering with your windows. Similarly, in smaller units with less wall space, floor standing units are a great way to maximise your wall’s real estate with artwork, plants and decorations without having to forgo air conditioning.

Benefits of floor standing air conditioning units include:

Package unit

As the name suggests, package air conditioning systems comes as a whole ‘package’ also known as ‘rooftop packaged units’. The whole system is includes all of the main components inside a single casing – fans, evaporator, air filters, condenser, compressors and all the other accessories. Due to their all-in-one style, packaged air conditioners are best when floor space is limited.

In commercial spaces, it is common for package air conditioning systems to be installed on the roof to maximise floor space in the building.

Suspended casette

Ceiling mounted cassette air conditioning units are a unique type of split system air conditioner that combines compact and streamlined design with powerful air conditioning. The compact design is perfect for people with roofs that don’t have room for an entire ducted system. The cassette air conditioner takes up no floor or wall space, making it completely unobtrusive. These units aren’t mounted on the ceiling, though. They are recessed into it completely seamlessly for those with a very particular home design in mind.

If you want to draw attention away from your air conditioner, then the ceiling mounted cassette air con is for you. It takes up no floor or wall space, so it’s visually unobtrusive. However, the powerful design allows it to silently circulate air throughout your room, making it perfect for bedrooms, home theatres, offices or home studios.

Some of the many benefits of ceiling mounted cassette air conditioners include:

Window wall system

A Window wall mounted air conditioning system is a quiet, unobtrusive means to deliver clean, comfortable air to any reasonably sized area in your family home or office.

The system is fully contained within a robust cabinet and usually mounted in an aperture provided in a wall or window opening, enabling distribution of clean, comfortable air to the living space while expelling hot air from the condenser to the atmosphere.

Window wall mounted systems may provide cooled air only or if configured as a reverse cycle unit, can provide either heated or cooled air. A wide range of window wall models of both types are provided by Kelvinator from 1.6Kw systems right up to more powerful 6Kw model. Most models excepting the 1.6Kw model are provided with remote control and multi-speed fans for greater comfort and temperature control.

All units are able to facilitate dehumidification or removal of moisture from incoming air whilst at the same time, mixing fresh and recirculated air for greater comfort. A dust filter also removes dust and other airborne particles before the conditioned air is distributed to the living space.

Manual controls are also provided on all models for direct control at the fascia panel. A wireless remote control with an easy to see luminescent key pad is also provided on those units greater than 1.6Kw capacity. Many other features are also provided including sleep mode settings enabling the unit to be turned off automatically at a set time.
