When using an air conditioner, it is very important to clean it from time to time. Cleaning an air conditioner gets rid of the accumulated dirt and dust and improves the performance of the unit.
From the aesthetic sense, cleaning also makes the air conditioning unit look spick and span. For cleaning an air conditioner, the essential tools that are required are a tin can, a vacuum cleaner, a long handled brush, an oil can, rags, detergent or other cleaning chemicals and screwdrivers and spanners.

Although split air conditioners are easier to install than window air conditioners, one should consult an expert before doing anything. It looks all so easy to install and disassemble a split air conditioner but the best option is to let an expert do it or even if someone wants to do it themselves, then do it in front of an expert.
To install the split air conditioner, the first job is to install the condenser unit. The condenser unit stays in the open, out of the house. Since outside air circulates through the condenser unit, there should be ample space around the unit. There should be at least 12 inches of space between the condenser unit and the wall of the house. 12 inches should also be kept free on both sides of the condenser.
After the proper space is selected, the pad should be laid on the ground, a check should be done to see that the pad is on even ground and then the condenser unit should be put on top of the pad.

One of the most common issues that come up with split air conditioners is that they start to leak. The leaks could be of different types. There could be cases where water leaks out from the unit and there could be other cases where there is a leak in the Freon line.
When the refrigerator coils suck in warm air from the air and cools it. As a result of this cooling, condensed water vapor is formed on the refrigerator coils. When this water vapor is converted to water, it drips on the gutter tray. The gutter tray has an outlet that carries this water and disposes it elsewhere, in most cases, outside.
In some cases, this outlet gets blocked and the water starts accumulating in the gutter tray. This is when the air conditioner starts leaking. This can be resolved rather easily.

Air conditioners are of two types. There are the window air conditioners and the split air conditioners. Functionally speaking, there is no major difference between a window air conditioner and a split air conditioner. Both are used to cool rooms. However, there are some differences technically.
A window air conditioner is a single unit. All the parts of the air conditioner reside within that one unit, including the compressor. In a split air conditioner, as the name suggests, the parts of the air conditioner are split.
The condenser is usually fitted outside the house or the room in which the indoor unit is installed. The condenser also contains the compressor. Refrigerator coils and PVC lines run from the condenser to the indoor unit.

Split air conditioners have a split design with an external or out door unit that houses the compressor and one or more internal units that are served by the compressor and house the air handlers. Their design makes them similar to central air conditioning units however the fact that they use smaller air ducts makes them less expensive and easier to install.
In a split air conditioner the refrigerant is pumped to the cooling coil in the air handlers through the ducting. The conduit which just needs a three inch hole drilled in the wall connects the inner and the outer unit. It houses the refrigerant and suction tubing, the condensate drain and the power cable.

Mini split heat pumps are the ideal solution for homes where ducting is not possible. You may not be able to install ducting due to the high cost or it may not be feasible to do so due to architectural constraints.
They also make good add ons to houses which already have a ductless heating system in place such as radiant panels, hydronic systems, space heaters powered by wood, propane or kerosene.

Ductless air conditioners have two units one placed indoors and the other placed outside.
The two units are connected through simple copper tubing and electrical wiring. The condenser coil and the compressor in the outdoor unit pump the refrigerant through the tubing to the indoor unit.
This refrigerant cools the evaporator coil and a fan in the indoor unit distributes the air cooled by passing over the evaporator coil in the room.

Looking for an air conditioner to cool your home properly?
Well Sanyo’s split and ductless air-conditioners solve this requirement perfectly by providing you with a cool and quiet indoor environment that you enjoy.
But what is the basic difference between a split Air Conditioner (A.C) and a central air conditioner?
Mainly suitable for offices and large commercial operations, central air-conditioners use a system of supply and return ducts and a set of registers to circulate cool air.
You may often see openings or grills fitted in the walls, floors, or ceilings in case the place has a Central A.C installed.
Well these openings or return ducts along with supply ducts carry cooled air from the AC and circulate it in your entire home, which becomes warmer on circulation. The return ducts and registers then carry this warm air back to the Central Air Conditioner unit comprising of the evaporator, condenser, and compressor.
All these parts of the Central AC are packed into one unit and are kept on a slab made of concrete on the roof of your building.
