[quote author=domack99 post=45038231] Central A/C is like cooking with a giant pot in the hope that everybody is hungry... Some will not eat after all. Split units ensure localized climate control. They are also easier to replace. 1 Like |

drkay: You are quite right. Cost effectiveness is the key consideration. Have you heard of the global award winning Solacoat technology? Solacoat cools homes and office even without air conditioners or electricity. Kindly see link below to watch how air conditioning and energy consumption can be downsized to achieve substantial cost recovery. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOER2ShzOvw Contact info: info@procorrsolutions.com or call +234-8039352489. |

OrlandoOwoh: Bro. Those cooling systems are probably due for change. Though durable HVAC (Central AC) systems last for a much as 30 or more years; the maintenance and spare parts needed ( if the product is shipped from abroad) might become a problem. @op the client determines (finally) if a building is going to have central AC or not. HVAC systems have high initial financial outlay, but over time, compared to split ACs, their mmaintenance are more cost effective. Many clients however like to cut costs hence the choice for splits. Hope you know the new senate building has been reverted to split AC system. Cost cutting measures. 1 Like |

A central air conditioner would normally require a 3-phase power supply. In Nigeria, a lot of time there would be light on one or two phases and no light on the other phase or two. That is why people keep switching the phases to get connected to the phase with light. If you have a central a.c., it would have a hard time working properly under such situations. You will need to have light on all 3 phases. 1 Like 1 Share |

amuokuko: It's not your fault. It's the mod that pushed the topic to frontpage. You and I are not in the same category to chat about technology. You're looking at a residential building and you're here talking about split HVAC. Go line up for your petrol. |

BE811APP: Central A.C is not an Architect's job. The mechanical Engineers are in charge of such jobs and not Architects. Factors affecting usage of Central A.C 1. Client's choice or requirements 2. Technical know-how 3. Maintenance culture 4. Availability and sustainability 5. Etc. |

1 thermostat can only control one condenser in a central a/c system. All of you that say you can control the temperature of many zones must have many commercial grade condensers on top of or around your building. That is very different than a central a/c system for your house or apartment. 3 Likes |

drkay: You think having individual units is more cost effective than a centralised unit? Abeg, go back to school. That is like saying 20 people having individual cars to go to the same destination is more cost effective than 20 people sharing a big bus. 1 Like |
