Differences and similarities between duct split and fan coil

Split duct and fan coil are two widely used air conditioning systems in buildings, each of which has its own characteristics and uses. In the following, we will examine the differences and similarities of these two systems:

Similarities
 * Purpose: Both systems are used with the aim of providing thermal comfort in different environments by providing hot or cold air.
 * Types of models: Both systems are produced in different models such as ceiling, wall, low and channel.
 * Temperature control: Both systems have the ability to control the temperature independently in each room.
 * Energy consumption: Both systems require electrical energy.

differences:

*The fan coil operates through the unit itself, while the ducted split system operates through air ducts. The fan coil unit is visible (wall-mounted, floor-mounted, or ducted), but the ducted split unit is hidden in the false ceiling.

*The fan coil has separate controls for each unit, whereas the ducted split system usually has a central control for the entire system.

*The fan coil has lower installation costs, while the ducted split system has higher installation costs due to ductwork.

*The fan coil allows for temperature control in each room, but the ducted split system does not.

*The fan coil operates more quietly, while the ducted split system may produce more noise depending on the model.

*The fan coil uses cold or hot water, while the ducted split system uses refrigerant gas.

Which one should we choose?
The choice between duct split and fan coil depends on various factors such as:
 * Space area: For large spaces, split duct is usually a better choice.
 * Budget: The cost of installation and maintenance of split duct is higher.
 * Appearance: If appearance is important to you, fan coils with more diverse models can be a better choice.
 * Comfort: Split duct usually distributes more uniform air in the space.

Both split duct and fan coil systems have their own advantages and disadvantages. Choosing the best option depends on the specific needs and conditions of each project. It is better to consult with our experts before making a decision.
