You can also choose split commercial air conditioning system with large cooling capacity for your entire office. But, you need to install two separate units-indoor and outdoor units in your office.

You can find different kinds of split air conditioners such as multi-split ACs and single split ACs. Multi split air conditioners have the same function like single split ones, but you can connect the outdoor unit of a multi-split AC with the nine indoor units. So you can cover entire office with a single outdoor unit and you do not need to give extra space for multiple outdoor units.

But, multi-split air conditioners come with complex layout. You need to install several pipes to connect your indoor units with a single outdoor unit. If you want it for a small office or café then you can choose a single split one.

However, VRF commercial air conditioning systems are best for medium to large commercial premises such as hotels, retail spaces and large buildings. They are available in two variations such as heat pump and hear recovery technology. VRF commercial air conditioning systems designed with heat-pump technology are suitable for open areas and they can be used as cooling or heating units. They are reverse cycle air conditioning system which can keep your rooms cool during summer and provide warmness during winter. So you do not need to install any additional heating system in your office.

If you have lots of cabins in your office then you can use this air conditioning system. This is the most efficient commercial air conditioning system that can recover waste heat from outside and transform the heat into cool air.
