Split Type Aircon: Which is best?

[sirkosero]

Yup parang ganyan nga ginawa dun sa isang window type namin. Para lang makasingaw yung init and also madeflect sa pataas yung mainit na hangin.

Yero lang ginamit ng karpintero namin. Wala pang 1000 lahat inabot.

Maybe you don't need to relocate the outdoor unit if there's enough headroom space to install a flexible air duct. That will prevent the hot exhaust air from looping back into the intake.

Something like this... but with the air duct hanging from the ceiling.

Aha!! Parang ok ito ah.. Sabihin ko nga sa papa ko kung pwede ganito na lang..

EDIT: nasabi ko na sa papa ko.. Mas mahal daw yung pag-install ng air duct.. hehehe [emoji16]

missek mas mura ang suggestion ni sirko
mura lang labor ng carpeter vs aircon "tech"

missek
ganyan din yun aircon namin sa dinning/sala area
yun outside unit nakalagay sa loob ng garahe nasa baba nga lang, meron pa laging nakaparada kotse sa harap ng unit, kasi minsan lang namin gamitin yun kotse na yun,
pina tingnan ko sa technician kasi hindi masyado lumalamig pag tanghali, suggestion itaas and ilagay sa may labas ng garahe,
ngayon summer kaya ng palamigin yun area,
buti daw na palipat kaagad kasi baka masira yun compressor

thank you Sir, buti nga naagapan hindi pa nasira compressor.. tuloy baligtad, kung kailan kainitan ng tanghali at hapon dun namin pinapatay kasi nahihirapan thermostat tapatan yung temp na ni-set..
nice to know na effective pala talaga yung relocate ng compressor.

looks like a good idea.
it won't be pretty, but i think it will work.

You'll need an exhaust fan at the end of that tube to suck the hot air out ...

For short lengths like a few meters, no need. The fans used in outdoor A/Cs are static pressure optimized with their wide blades and steep pitch angles.

There will be some losses in efficiency for sure, but specific to the guy's issue, the fact that it's going to pull in fresh/cooler air with the ducting installed makes up for the loss and he'll end up with a net-positive efficiency compared to the current setup.

To further reduce this loss, it's also best to keep the ducting as straight as possible.... no sharp turns or hairpins.

I don't use one. I just posted it as a possible solution.

miss X,
your papa is right.
perusing carousell,
just the cost of the ducting, depending on the type, them ductings can be very expensive... thousands if the diameter is big...
it might be cheaper and longer-lasting in the long run, if the unit were relocated, instead of running that ducting...

i am now curious,
how come your papa knew?

Tinanong ko papa ko bakit niya alam.. Basta alam nya lang daw.. Hahahahahaha [emoji23] tinamad mag-explain..

UPDATE: Salamat po ulit sa mga input.. Ok na po mga Sir, sa halagang Php 6,500 hindi na namin tinawaran.. Na-relocate na po outdoor unit, nalinis na both indoor and outdoor, nadagdagan ng freon.. Balik lamig na sya [emoji4].
Sabi nung gumawa, baka yung last na naglinis ng aircon namin, binawasan yung freon kasi hindi niya ma-solve yung leak.. Resulta humina ang paglamig.
Umaliwalas pati ang garahe. [emoji41]
