What is Duct Split?
Duct split, like wall splits, consists of two main parts: external unit (condensing unit) and internal unit (ventilator unit). As it can be seen from the name of split duct, it is the same split with newer technology and its heat transfer system through ducting or air vent.
1-Duct Split Air Force Unit
The air-generating unit or indoor unit is responsible for air distribution between spaces, which may be done directly or channeled through a valve depending on the capacity and usage. Split duct installation is usually done in the false ceiling of the building.
2-Condensing Duct Split
The condensing unit or external unit is responsible for the main task of producing cooling through the compressor, which is connected to the internal unit using insulated copper pipes and energy exchange is done. According to various factors, the external unit is installed on the balcony (terrace) or roof and sometimes to create a roof garden on top of the building.
In some duct split models, there is the ability to heat and cool by refrigerant gas and heat pump, which in our country, due to the more economical use of gas energy in cold seasons, hot water coils are used inside the device for heating. It is possible that the hot water consumed after energy exchange and cooling is reheated by the package or hot water boiler connected to the device through piping. In this case, the duct split device works like a fan coil and only the fan part of the device is turned on. The main consumer of electricity in split and duct splits is the external unit of the device, which is switched off during heating and using the hot water coil in winter, and the internal unit plays the role of a fan, which greatly reduces electricity consumption. It happens in winter. Below is an example of a split channel with a description of the main parts.
The benefits of Duct Split
More power, saving water and electricity, occupying less space and lower electricity consumption of Split Duct than conventional air conditioners. New and up-to-date split duct system and the possibility of automatic temperature adjustment according to the environment The possibility of injecting fresh air from outside the building into the ventilated environment Distributing hot or cold air in a balanced way into the air-conditioned environment (through air transfer channels) Low maintenance cost It is possible to control the cost and reduce the electricity consumption of the split duct according to the needs of the air-conditioned building Having an air filter and injecting fresh and pollution-free air into the ventilated environment The cost-effectiveness of using a split duct with a hot water coil, due to the supply of hot water by the engine room or package
How long is the Split Duct's Life?
Duct Split devices usually have a long lifespan compared to other air conditioning systems and rarely fail, and in some cases have minor faults in consumables and thermostats. In general, these devices have a long life and durability.
