What is a split system air conditioner?

A split system air conditioner uses liquid refrigerant to cool or heat the air. It comes in two separate parts.

An indoor unit is mounted on the wall inside your home, distributing air throughout the room. And, an outdoor compressor unit directs the refrigerant to and from the indoor unit.
