What is a single split system?

A single split system refers to a refrigerated type air conditioner consisting two main operating components. One component is the evaporator (commonly known as indoor unit) which is installed inside the room and one is the condenser (commonly known as outdoor unit) which is located outside the building. Refrigeration pipes or copper pipes are used to connect the two.

Why choose a single split system?

A single split air conditioner is ideal for heating or cooling one area or one room of your house. It is easy to install, great at temperature control and excellent in efficiency.  Split air conditioners come in either Cooling Only or Reverse Cycle (which offers heating and cooling).  A split system also comes in inverters (variable speed compressor) and non inverter or fix speed (single speed on and off compressor). An Inverter is more efficient to run, can achieve desired temperature quicker and quieter to run, also maintain a more stable temperature than a fix speed unit. Cold Bear Air recommends inverter technology for offering greater comfort to your home.

What air conditioner brand should I get?

Each air conditioner brand makes different air conditioners. They offer different functions and features. They are also different in factors such as efficiency, quietness and air flow rate. There is no one air conditioner for all and it depends on what functions and features that individual prefer. Cold Bear Air offers a wide range of air conditioner brands including Daikin, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Hitachi, Toshiba, Gree and more. Our sales technicians are able to give you the best choice for your air conditioning need.
