Ductless split air conditioning is one of the most popular forms of AC installations in Hawaii. Ductless split air conditioner systems are highly efficient, quiet, sleek and allow for great individual room comfort control.
The innovative design of the split system provides great comfort control and sufficient air flow without the need of a ducting system. A ductless split system can be installed in any room of any home, both new or old.
Indoor fan-coil units are typically wall mounted, while the outdoor condensing unit is installed outdoors. Both indoor and outdoor units need to be maintained regularly to prolong the life of the ac.
The units typically have 2-3 washable filters, which manufacturers recommend cleaning once a month.
The indoor coil and blower wheel also attract large amounts of dust and dirt, which can then be blown back into the home or clog the unit’s drain line. The cold, moist coils create a breeding ground for mold and microbial growth.
The condenser coils, as well, tend to attract all of the salt, dust, and dirt that can be found in Hawaii’s outdoor elements. This is why it is essential that a semi-annual or annual deep cleaning is performed to maintain the split AC.
