Split vs Window AC: Which One Suits Your Room?

Window AC

A window AC is a single box that fits into a window opening or a wall cut-out. It is simpler to install and move, which suits rented flats when the window size matches.

Split AC

A split AC has an indoor unit on the wall and an outdoor unit outside, connected by pipes. The noisy compressor sits outside, so the room is usually quieter. It needs space and a safe spot for the outdoor unit.

How to decide

Check your window size, whether your building allows outdoor units, and how quiet you need the room to be. If you are unsure, share photos of the room and window on WhatsApp and we will suggest an option.

• Window opening available: window AC is often easiest.
• Need a quieter room: split AC.
• Short stay or rented flat: consider renting instead of buying.
