Multi Head Split System Air Conditioners

Do you want to save on your cooling costs? If you've got a larger house, keeping every room comfortable through summer can be the biggest drain on your electricity bill. One way to beat the heat without breaking the bank is multi‑head split system air conditioning — a single outdoor unit that cools every room in your home.

One outdoor unit · every room covered

How does it work?

Split system air conditioners separate the indoor fan coil unit from the outdoor compressor, giving you more flexibility to choose where these components are located. Multi-head split systems are even more convenient, as they only require a single compressor to power as many indoor units as you need.

These systems filter and recycle the air in the room, the air is then cooled as it passes over an evaporator coil and gets blown around the room by fans, heat removed from the internal space is then transferred outside the building through the outdoor condenser unit. If you choose a reverse cycle air conditioner, the cooling process can be put in reverse to provide energy-efficient heating in the winter.

However, unlike other air conditioning systems, multiple indoor units may be connected to a single compressor to save space outside. A multi-head split system can also provide both cooling and heating if you choose a reverse cycle air conditioner.

Multi-split systems take up less space than ducted systems, and they're also preferable if you have a flat roof or live in a humid climate. If your multi-head system has the capacity for more heads than you're currently using, these can be added later on as you need them. However, single-head split systems can't be converted into multi systems.
