Split System Cooling
Split systems – for small spaces and small costs
Split system airconditioners can provide a more than 20 degree variance in cooling, which means that whatever the temperature outside, your split cooling system will keep you comfortable. Optima has a wide range of split system airconditioners:

What is a split system airconditioner
Split system airconditioners offer both space heating and space cooling. They are best suited for heating and cooling only one room or area. When considering air conditioning, cooling and heating is as much a function of space as ambient temperature and unit power. Optima’s engineers can determine the best split cooling systems for both residential and commercial air conditioning Melbourne-wide.
The split system airconditioner gets its name from its two main units – one indoor and one outdoor. The outdoor unit sets the temperature of the air conditioning, cooling or heating air as required. The indoor unit distributes the warmed or cooled air. Importantly for businesses, this means minimal disruption during commercial air conditioning installation and service.
Why a split cooling system
When installing air conditioning,
Melbourne residents need to consider their requirements. With split system air conditioning,
cooling is unaffected by humidity, which means that rain won’t affect your unit.
Split cooling systems are silent to operate, so you’re not disturbed by fans. Furthermore,
the units include air filters, which means that outflowing air doesn’t carry bugs
or diseases.
While traditional split cooling systems tend to be less energy efficient, modern units incorporate inverter technology, which makes them up to 35 per cent more energy efficient. Traditional split system airconditioners operate on a stop/start principle, heating or cooling the air to a certain temperature before turning off for a period of time.
By incorporating inverters into split system air conditioning, cooling and heating is provided in small increments in response to changes in air temperature. In not having to work hard to cool or heat air each time they restart, inverter split system airconditioners are much more energy efficient than standard units.
