Multi-head Split System
What is a Multi-Head Split Air-conditioning system?
Multi-split system air conditioners, can heat or cool different rooms in a property with only a single outdoor unit connected to multiple indoor units (usually a maximum of 4 indoor units).
They use the same technology as normal split unit systems, where half the system (or condenser) is located outside the home. The other half of the system or internal unit is placed inside the house.
When cooling is required, the fan coil or internal unit sucks out the warm air from inside the room, which results in cool air recirculating into the house. To warm a specific zone, the heat pump works in reverse, providing much-needed heating during cold winter days.
The single outdoor unit feeds into the indoor multi-head systems in individual rooms.
All indoor units include an individual control for temperature. You can schedule and set the desired room temperature for each particular room through its indoor unit.
For example, you can set the living room temperature at 20°C, a bedroom at 22°C, your home office at 24°C and the master bedroom unit completely turned off if it is empty – you have the option to not cool unoccupied areas. If you are using only one room, you need only operate the unit in your room.
This ensures energy efficiency and savings on running costs when using your multi-head split system air conditioner.
By using an air conditioning multi-split system, you can keep cool during the summer and comfortably warm in the winter – whatever your individual temperature preferences in your rooms.
Of course, the major advantage of multi-head split air conditioners is that they enable you to either heat multiple rooms or cool multiple rooms simultaneously with only one outdoor unit!
