Split Type Aircon: Which is best?

If the hole for the window type is existing then by all means install a window type A/C if not I'd rather have split type. Plus also consider the over all aesthetic.

Window type really sticking out like a sore thumb on a house's facade.

Most designers will spare the frontage. Here's an oddity....I know of very respected & sought-after ones who usually recommend split over window for clients, but do the reverse in their own homes & not coz of budget.....Go figure.[emoji4]

It doesn't matter if it's located at the Front, on the sides or in the back window type is not pleasing to the eyes.

Some go form over function. Some, function over form....& there are those who go for balance.[emoji4]

Plus proper specs & planning. Strategic accessible pipe chases, when spaces allow, can help both prevention & maintenance. We can only share available options, sound advices, expertise & experience. Owners will always have the last say.[emoji4]

Interested in getting window-type inverters for our rooms. Is it economical to do so if room is just 17.5x13.5 feet? The other room is smaller at 15 x 12 feet. (Sorry, not sure how to convert).

Looking at the Kolin inverter. Any other suggestions based on experience? Thanks!

Rule of thumb I follow is that for every 13-15 square meters is 1 hp. This includes losses from frequent opening of doors.
