Air conditioning for private houses

Split air conditioning systems with wall-mounted indoor units

Split systems with wall-mounted indoor units are a common type of system in a private house. Having applied one split system for one room, we will get cooling of this particular area. Comfort conditions are also regulated only for this part of the house. Since the windows in the house are located on different sides of the world, it would be advisable to install a couple more split systems.

This type of air conditioning in the house is effective when it is only necessary to establish special comfortable conditions in certain rooms. In the case when the owner of the house is thinking about cooling a large number of rooms and the ability to regulate the microclimate in each room separately, then it is worth paying attention to the fact that several outdoor units from different sides of the house at once spoil its overall appearance. In this case, it is worth considering the following type of system.

For air conditioning of a private or country house based on a split system with wall-mounted indoor units, we recommend the following series of equipment.

A budget option:

• Lessar Series - LS / LU-H_KPA2 and LS / LU –HE_KLA2A
  

Medium Option:

• Cooper&Hunter Series CH-S_/FTXS and CH-S_/FTXE(Wi-Fi) 

Premium class:

• Daikin Series FTXB/RXB and FTXS/RXS

In this case, we have arranged the series of air conditioners according to their pricing policy. When selecting external and internal blocks for the house, specific models are determined based on the required work capacity

Multi-split air conditioning systems with wall-mounted indoor units

A convenient way to cool your home. Several wall-mounted indoor units are connected to one outdoor unit. Thus, the facade of the house is preserved. And several air conditioners can simultaneously cool the necessary rooms. An important point here is the correct selection of the model of the outdoor unit in terms of power.

Recommended series of air conditioners for this type of air system in the house:

Medium Option:

• Cooper&Hunter series CHML-IW_CNK (indoor unit) and CHML-V_NX3 (outdoor unit)

Premium class:

• Daikin series FTXS_K (indoor unit) and _MXS_E (outdoor unit)

Systems with ducted indoor units

When installing duct air conditioners in a house, you have to remember that for routing air ducts to rooms and installing grilles, it is necessary to allocate space for a false ceiling. In this case, you only see the air distribution grilles. There are also options for air cooling in a house with one powerful duct air conditioner (for example, one unit per floor), or installing separate indoor units for each room separately (if space permits). The disadvantage of using one powerful unit is that there is no possibility of regulating the temperature in each room separately since there is only one control panel. The use of several indoor units of the channel type increases the cost of the system itself, but the expediency of using such a combination is a reasonable decision.

The split system with a duct-type internal block

Let's move on from the classic home air conditioning design schemes to more complex ones. The cooling system of the house was built based on a channel-type indoor unit. It is important to understand that for the implementation of such a system, the ceiling space will be used, both for the device itself and the air duct network.

The diagram already contains air ducts, which are responsible for the movement of air, and their competent cross-section provides low noise characteristics of the functioning of the entire system.

Important!

 In practice, this scheme is not entirely correct. Here are the main reasons why you should not implement a split system with one internal channel-type unit in your home:

1. There is no way to adjust your microclimate for each of the zones.
   
2. With such an organization of air conditioning, electricity consumption increases - it works for all rooms, even if all family members are in a completely different room.
   
3. Noise characteristics appear.

Based on the above, it is not correct to tie air cooling at home on one indoor unit of a duct-type air conditioner. 

 Our recommendation is to use multi-split systems with several channel-type indoor units.

The multi-split system with channel type indoor units

This solution is considered a premium system. There are several reasons for this:

• the efficiency of the ducted air conditioning system - each block serves its own room, which ensures optimal use of electricity while guaranteeing comfortable cooling;
  
• hidden installation of the system - only diffusers or grilles remain visible in the interior;
  
• comfortable air distribution - thanks to high-quality diffusers, the airflow is dispersed evenly and is not felt by the residents;
  
• low noise characteristics - with the correct design and calculation of the system, its operation is as quiet and invisible as possible.
  

Alter Air recommends ducted air conditioning in your home if you are looking for comfort, quality, and aesthetics.

VRV-air conditioning system

The advantage of a multi-zone organization is that several dozen indoor units are connected to one outdoor unit, which may differ in their standard sizes, types, and functions. So, with professional design and high-quality installation, air conditioning is carried out by zones and by floors. The location of rooms relative to the cardinal points (north, west, south, east), the thermal resistance of glass units, footage of rooms, the height of ceilings, availability of equipment, and insulation of roofing spaces are taken into account. A project of such complexity requires accurate calculations and a professional selection of equipment.
