It is better if there is a representative office of the manufacturer or a service center in your locality.Experts will install it efficiently and will help you not to fly off the warranty with a self-made connection.

The size of the room you want to cool is also of paramount importance. In a small room, you can limit yourself to a mobile air conditioner or window monoblock, and in a large hall it is better to choose a split system. For the bedroom, mainly inverter low-noise models are suitable, and for the kitchen, the presence of a deodorizing filter will be relevant. Please note that the placement of a split system on the wall of an apartment building in some cases requires approval.
