Split Type Aircon: Which is best?

[dr. d]

I need an aircon for my room. Already has a hole for a window type but my contractor can cover it up and convert to split type.

Panasonic's 1hp split type inverter is 26k including installation. Their window type inverter is 28k.

Any reason why I should go for window type over split type?

If split type, compressor will be at the balcony right beside the split type ACU so maintenance shouldn't be an issue.

the only reason i would go split-type, is because i can't install a window-type.
window-type is cheaper and easier.
it's easier and cheaper to install, service, and replace.

when the split type in the workplace malfunctions or needs cleaning, it's a commando operation.

when the window-type needs looking into, they just pull it out, and return it when it is fixed. faster fix, too.

but i am sure, you already know all these.
so why are you considering split type?
