Air conditioning is among the most modern and technically advanced ways of creating and maintaining the indoor comfort conditions, and preserving the valuable articles in public buildings. Air conditioning is a great achievement of scientific and technical ideas in creating an artificial indoor climate. Comfortable air-conditioning is meant to create optimal microclimate conditions for people's life, for their work and rest; conditions able to contribute to working efficiency and lessen sickness rate. The main functions of air conditioners are cooling and heating the indoor air. That means that ac in the general case do not intake fresh air from the outside or do not exhaust air from the room. All the ac are operated by remote control. Depending on their design, use and functionality there are many different types of conditioners. Before installing an conditioner one must take into account the type of the room, its floor space and ceiling height, the number of people residing in this room, if there is any heat-generating equipment there, the windows size and their orientation about cardinal points, and much, much more. For example, if you want to save money, you can install a window conditioner. If there are two rooms in your apartment, it is reasonable to set a multi-split system with different or equal indoor units' power. Any way, you better trust the choice of the desired type of air conditioner on professionals. Here, we suggest you to have a look at the existing types of conditioners and their characteristics. Traditional British thermal unit, BTU is used to specify nominal air conditioner power, which is equal to 0.293 watt. Nominal conditioner power is often multiple of 1,000 BTU. In addition, the cooling performance in BTU is indicated in the marking of the air conditioner almost all the time. For example, the air conditioner with nominal cooling power of 9000 BTU has "9" or "09" marking. Specialists usually call it "nine" accordingly. 1000 BTU = 293 watts = 0.293 kW Types of air conditioners: 1. Monoblock conditioners are called window ones, they are installed in the window opening or a thin wall. The installation of such device is not difficult: it is just set in the window openings. And, finally, window air conditioners are much cheaper than split-systems, for example. Window air conditioners can not only cool but also heat the air. The advantages of window air conditioners:
  • Low price.
  • Easy installation.
  • Partial air exhaust (5-10%).
The disadvantages of window air conditioners:
  • Relatively high noise level.
  • Cold air access in winter.
  • Blocking of the part of window opening.
  • Laxity in temperature maintenance.
2. Mobile. Mobile air conditioners: a flexible corrugated hose is used for warm air outtake. Usually, the hose is taken out to window leaf, open window or door. The advantages of mobile conditioners:
  • They can be moved from room to room.
  • They do not require professional installation.
The disadvantages of mobile conditioners:
  • The price is rather high.
  • Noisiness.
  • Warm air outtake is required (incut in the window, open windows).
  • 3. Split-systems. Split is an air-conditioner, consisting of indoor and outdoor (evaporative) units. Outdoor unit is usually mounted on the building face; the indoor unit is inside the building. Split-systems eliminated two major disadvantages of window air conditioners: connection with the window opening and their noisiness. The noisiest part of the air conditioner is its compressor. In split-systems it is taken outside, that leads to extra-quiet work. The advantages of split-systems:
    • Soft-running.
    • Ergonomic design.
    • Split-systems are full-featured.
    • They can be installed almost anywhere in the room.
    The disadvantages of split-systems:
    • They require professional installation.
    • Relatively high price.
    • No fresh air intake.
