Positioning Your Split System Air Conditioner

Indoor Unit Position

When it comes to installing split systems in residential homes, apartments, townhouses, and commercial spaces, we must consider various factors when deciding on the best position for the indoor unit. This includes visual appeal, airflow for the space, cost effectiveness in materials and installation time, the potential to target multiple spaces, and most importantly, the customer’s preference.

Here are some examples of where you can place the unit:

Back To Back ($)

Centred Over Window ($$)

Internal Trunking ($$$)

Outdoor Unit Position

When it comes to installing an outdoor split system unit in apartment complexes, it is usually necessary to place it in a corner of the balcony to limit its impact on the usable space. However, in residential settings, more options are available to us. Therefore, we must consider various factors while choosing the best position for the unit, such as its proximity to the indoor unit for efficiency, its visibility, and potential interference with foot traffic.

Additionally, we strive to place the unit in a spot that will have minimal impact on access or space, like avoiding blocking side entries or nearby garbage bins, bicycles, and lawn mowers.
