split system

Two-part air conditioner

A split system is an air conditioning or heating unit with components installed in two locations—typically a compressor outside the building and an air handler inside.

The separation reduces indoor noise and allows flexible placement.

We installed a split system in the bedroom.

Mini-split systems use smaller, ductless indoor units.
