Different Types Of Mini Splits

Mini splits are a type of air conditioning system that is becoming increasingly popular. They are a great option for homes or businesses that don’t have the space for a traditional central air conditioning system. Mini splits are composed of two main components: an outdoor compressor/condenser and an indoor air-handling unit. The outdoor unit houses the compressor and condenser coils, while the indoor unit contains the evaporator coil, blower, and air filter. The two units are connected by a conduit that contains the power cable, refrigerant tubing, suction tubing, and a condensate drain.

Mini splits come in a variety of different types, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The most common type is the ductless mini split, which is a single-zone system that can be used to cool or heat a single room or area. A multi-zone system is a great option for larger homes or businesses that need to cool or heat multiple rooms or areas. This type of system uses multiple indoor air-handling units that are connected to a single outdoor unit. There are also mini splits that are designed for commercial applications, such as those used in restaurants or office buildings. These systems are typically larger and more powerful than residential mini splits and can be used to cool or heat multiple rooms or areas.
