When it comes to installing split air conditioners, you must know the installation is far more straightforward than the ducted one. Even, it not only comes cheaper but also the quicker one in many cases that it gets completed in a single day.

However, aircon installation is something you should always leave for the professionals. So, when it comes to installing you split AC, there are a few things you can expect-

Groundwork By the Professionals: Before commencing the installation work, the installer has to evaluate the place in your home, where the AC needs to be installed. Here are a few aspects to look after-

• Vent location
• Natural light
• Air ducts
• Load-bearing walls
• Ceiling space
• Location of the necesary support

Determining all these points will help you to arrange the support for installing the split system. Even, these are factors to influence the choice of an air conditioner according to your budget and cooling needs.

Here are the steps mentioned below to tell you about what is involved in a split system installation-

• Mount Up: As the name suggests, the split systems are made of 2 separate components- one is the indoor unit, and another one is the outdoor unit. At first, the indoor unit is installed, and after that, the aspects for necessary groundwork mentioned above need to execute using a mounting bracket to the interior wall. It will help to hold up the AC unit.
• Drill Down Into It: As soon as the brackets are installed, installers create a hole into the wall for AC installation purpose, and it is essential to connect your indoor unit to the outdoor condenser.
• Wire It Up: When it comes to running cables and pipes, a split system aircon installation needs wiring. The air conditioner installers will run all the necessary piping and wiring through the hole after tying and sheathing them in the protective PVC tube.

In most cases, the AC installers prefer installing the indoor units on the exterior walls. It's all about minimising the physical space between both the indoor and outdoor units to speed up the installation and bring down its cost.

• Secure Your Indoor Unit to the Wall: As soon as the mounting is done, the installer places the indoor unit. It takes a solid push to place the indoor unit in the right position. Once the unit is secured, the installer will connect the pipes and wiring.
• Dealing With the Outdoor Condenser: As soon as the installer is done with installing the indoor unit, half of the task is done. Now, the outdoor unit needs to be installed, as it pumps the cold air into the home and works as a hero in this scenario. It takes warm air from outdoors and converts into the cold air.

For your ground level rooms, the technician will secure the condenser unit to the ground. For second-story rooms, the outdoor unit needs a mounting bracket to secure its place- as similar to the indoor unit.

Now you know how aircon installers work, and with these information you can communicate with them confidently.
