A Split System Air Conditioner contains two units joined by pipes – an outside unit called the compressor and an inside unit hung on the wall. Though this is the standard variation, multi-split units also exist, where there are multiple indoor units connected to one single outdoor unit. Split System Air Conditioners are great for cooling large open areas. What is a Reverse Cycle Air Conditioner? Reverse Cycle Air Conditioners feature dual purpose functions, working to cool and heat the home. Air Conditioners with Reverse Cycle work by extracting heat from outside air before transferring it back into the home during winter; and by extracting heat from inside the house, Reverse Cycle Air Conditioners are able to dissipate it outside, leaving the home cooler than before. What does an Inverter motor mean? Air conditioners with an inverter model feature a compressor that's powered by a variable speed drive or "inverter", which enables the compressor to run at a range of speeds from slow to fast, to match the output required. Most conventional compressors run at a constant speed and these types of units vary their capacity by switching on and off at different intervals. Inverters are a sophisticated piece of technology which improve the performance and energy efficiency of air conditioners under normal use.
