Window AC vs split AC: Summer has arrived across the country including North India. With the onset of summer, the need for air conditioners in homes increases rapidly. In such a situation, the biggest question that arises is whether window AC is better or split AC. Both window AC and split AC provide such cooling. But their technology, installation, power consumption and method of use are different. In such a situation, the right AC depends on the size, budget and requirement of your room. Now let us tell you today where to get window AC and split AC installed and how different is the technology of both?
What is the difference between window AC and split AC?
Window AC comes in a single unit, in which the compressor and cooling system are integrated together. It is fitted in a window or wall. That split AC has two units, one indoor unit is inside the room and the other outdoor unit is outside.

Where to get window AC installed?
Window AC is considered more suitable for small and medium sized rooms. Window AC is considered a good option in homes where space is limited or installation needs to be easy. It does not require much change in installation and the cost is also less. It is also convenient for people living in rented houses, because it can be easily removed or shifted.
Where to get split AC installed?
Split AC is considered better for large rooms, living rooms and offices or areas with high heat. It provides uniform cooling throughout the room, thus reducing noise as the compressor is outside. However, its installation requires drilling in the walls and separate space for the outdoor unit.
What is the difference in technology?
Inverter technology is mostly seen in split AC which controls the speed of the compressor according to the temperature. This reduces electricity consumption and reduces bills in the long run. Window AC generally does not provide this facility, due to which it runs continuously at the same speed. Apart from this, power consumption completely depends on the star rating and usage of the AC. If both are of five star rating then the consumption can be almost equal. However, inverter split AC can save 30 to 50 percent electricity in the long run. While window AC provides rapid cooling in small rooms, split AC is more effective in large spaces.
