Split air conditioning systems

A single split system pairs one indoor unit with one outdoor unit. It is the most common choice for cooling — and heating — a single room such as a bedroom or home office.

What it suits

• One room, or a single open-plan space.
• Homes wanting a straightforward, cost-effective installation.
• Rooms with a sensible route to an outdoor-unit position.

Costs and alternatives

A single split is usually the least expensive way to get started — see costs. If you want several rooms cooled from one outdoor unit, a multi-split system is often more efficient than several separate splits.
