What is a Single-Zone Mini Split?

A single-zone mini-split (or air conditioner unit) is a type of self-contained heating and cooling system that serves an entire room or space with precise temperature control. It consists of a single indoor unit mounted on the wall, an outdoor unit attached to the exterior, and a network of ducts that distribute conditioned air throughout the building. In contrast, a multi-zone mini-split systems are designed for larger spaces, such as apartments or offices, where multiple rooms need to be cooled or heated separately. The main difference between single-zones and multi-zones is that single-rooms typically require more powerful heating and cooling units than those used in multi-zones, which can accommodate multiple smaller units to achieve a more efficient and cost-effective solution for larger spaces.
