The wall-mounted air conditioning system

The wall-mounted air conditioning system has two main units, the head (diffuser) and the compressor. 

The head is the part fixed to the wall inside your home and the compressor is the unit located outside your home. Note that there are different sizes and powers of compressors depending on the power required for the space to be air-conditioned.

Wall mounted air conditioning system

Wall-mounted air conditioning is often chosen by condo and homeowners for its quick installation and low cost. Compared to a central air conditioning system, virtually any home can accommodate this cooling solution. 

In comparison, to install a central air conditioning system in an already built house, it is necessary to install ventilation ducts through the walls of the house. Obviously, this solution requires major work.

This is why many homeowners opt for a wall-mounted air conditioning system. We install the compressor on the outside and the ventilation head(s) on the inside walls. It is possible to install up to 3 wall units per compressor. In multi-storey homes, it is recommended to have one unit per floor to ensure optimal performance and generate greater savings!

*The installation of a wall-mounted air conditioning system usually takes less than 3 hours.

Main advantages:

  • Lower operating costs
  • Low maintenance
  • Reduced carbon emissions
  • Long life span
  • Controls humidity in the house
  • Fast air conditioning
  • Quiet 19 to 40 decibels indoors and 46 to 58 decibels outdoors.

The complete maintenance of a wall-mounted air conditioning system consists of a thorough cleaning of the diffuser, the compressor, a verification of the refrigeration pressure, and the proper functioning of your unit. In order to prevent bacteria from accumulating and to prolong the life of your system, we recommend maintenance at least once a year. Most customers choose to do it twice a year when the season changes!

The maintenance of your wall-mounted air conditioning system is the equivalent of an oil change for your car, so it is very important not to neglect it. In addition to improving the quality of the air you breathe, a well-maintained system consumes up to 25% less energy, which will give you considerable energy savings at the end of the year.

Sometimes, in an effort to save costs, many people choose to install their wall air conditioning system themselves or have it installed by a handyman who does not have the proper license. When everything goes right, everything goes right!

Unfortunately, when the unit has a problem, the first thing the manufacturer will ask for in order to honor your warranty is proof of installation by a qualified and licensed contractor. Otherwise, the warranty will not be honored by the manufacturer and you will have to pay the full cost. Many times, the repair costs are not worth it and many customers choose to install a new air conditioning system instead.

This is why, whether you choose DuraClim or another company, we advise all our customers to be careful to choosing a qualified contractor to install your wall air conditioning system.

It is now illegal to import or produce Freon, the refrigerant gas used in thousands of air conditioning systems. If you have a Freon system, it is essential that you change your compressor, as it will soon be obsolete.

At DuraClim, all of our air conditioning systems run on Puron, a new gas authorized by the Canadian government.

The central air conditioning system

The central air conditioning system consists of a compressor located outside the home and air ducts leading to each room in your home.

The central air conditioning system remains one of the most efficient air conditioning systems available today. With an air outlet located in each room of your house, it allows cooling uniformly and quickly in all the rooms of your house to offer you optimal comfort.

The central air conditioning system is often chosen by condo and home owners for its unparalleled efficiency, comfort and cost savings. 

Because the air pipes are hidden through the walls, a single air outlet will be briefly visible in every room of your home.

More importantly, the central air conditioning system offers unparalleled efficiency! When it turns on, all rooms in the house are cooled to the same temperature simultaneously.

*Many properties already equipped with a central system have only one furnace. Adding a compressor outside the home allows for the easy addition of air conditioning.

  • Low maintenance
  • Air conditioning sent to every room in the house through the duct system.
  • Reduces carbon emissions
  • Long life span
  • Controls humidity in the house
  • Fast air conditioning
  • Quiet 19 to 40 decibels indoors and 46 to 58 decibels outdoors.

The maintenance of a central air conditioning system consists of cleaning or changing the filters, cleaning the air outlets, the ducts, and the compressor as well as checking the refrigeration pressure, the different electrical/mechanical parts, and the proper functioning of the system.

It is recommended to do 1 annual maintenance of your central air conditioning system in order to ensure its good functioning and to extend its life. A well-maintained system uses up to 25% less energy and improves air quality.

  • Eliminates dust accumulation
  • Eliminates bacteria build-up
  • Increases air quality
  • Prevents system breakdowns
  • Increases system life span
  • Reduce energy consumption by up to 25%.

Central air conditioning systems are often prioritized for new construction of homes or houses, since the ducts must be run through the walls of the home. Since the walls are already open, it is easier to pass the ventilation ducts.

It is possible to add a central air conditioning system after construction, but this type of installation requires more work.

*If you already have ventilation ducts for your furnace or air exchanger, you can easily use the same ducts to install your central air conditioning.

If your home is already ducted to distribute air from your furnace and/or air exchanger, you are one of the lucky ones! The installation of a central air conditioning system will be quite simple.

In your situation, since all the air ducts are already installed throughout your dwelling/house, all you have to do is install the compressor outside and voila, you have a central air conditioning system. Now, it’s a little more complex than a hook-up, but you save yourself most of the work. Talk to a DuraClim consultant for more information and a free estimate.
