What is a Multi-Head Split System?

Multi-head split systems allow you to control different room temperatures from one outdoor unit.

Ideal for homes needing flexible, zoned heating and cooling.

A multi head split system is a type of air conditioning system where multiple indoor units are connected to a single outdoor unit. This allows different rooms or areas of a home to be heated or cooled independently while reducing the number of outdoor units required.

Multi head split systems are commonly used in homes and apartments where space is limited, providing individual temperature control in each room from one central outdoor condenser. This optimises comfort levels as each room can be set to your desired temperature. Multi-Head Systems can also mean reducing your electricity bills because you’ll only heat and cool the rooms in use.

The multi-head system you choose will depend on how many rooms require heating and cooling. Up to 6 indoor units can connect to a single outdoor split system unit. At Coldflow we have a huge range of the best brands to choose from.

Because these systems are more complex than a standard single split, they require a higher level of technical skill to install and maintain. By choosing the experts at Coldflow, you are ensuring that your refrigerant lines are perfectly balanced and that your system is sized correctly to handle the load of multiple rooms simultaneously.

Frequently Asked Questions About Multi Head Split System Airconditioning

How Do Multi-Head Split Systems Work?

How Do Multi-Head Split Systems Compare?

Traditional Split Systems have a matching outdoor unit for every indoor unit; given that every home has multiple rooms, having an outdoor unit for every indoor unit would take up a lot of space and power consumption – that’s where a Multi-Head system comes in.

With a Multi-Head system, you can have 2 or more indoor units connected to 1 outdoor saving you valuable space, and future servicing costs.

How Do Multi-Head Split Systems work?

Multi-Head Split Systems use the same technology as normal Split Systems. They work by having half the system (called a condenser) outside the home, and the other half (called the fan coil, or internal unit) inside the home.

When cooling, the warm air from inside the room is taken in by the fan coil and removed, resulting in cool air recirculating back into the house. While reverse cycle allows for the heat pump to run in reverse to provide heating during cold days.

What Are The Running Costs With Multi Head Split Systems?

Running costs vary based on usage and the energy rating of the chosen model. For a high-efficiency system like the Mitsubishi Electric MXZ Series (7.1kW) serving two bedrooms and a lounge, annual running costs are estimated at approximately $702.90. Because you only power the units in the rooms you are currently using, these systems are often more economical than cooling the entire house with a large ducted system.

Multi head split system running costs diagram
How a Multi-Head Split System works compared to a standard Split System
*Data is based on: 2016 Victoria Energy Tariff of 32.1 c/kWh, using a Mitsubishi Electric Multi-Head MXZ-4e71vad/msz-ge25vad collected from Sustainability Victoria’s Energy Consumption and Running Costs website. Usage times were set on average to 4 months of heating, and 2 months of cooling based on 7 hours a day. Actual running costs are affected by many factors including climate and insulation; this data should only be used as a guide and does not guarantee your individual running costs will reflect these results.

Reducing Multi Head Split System Running Costs

It doesn’t take much to reduce your running costs. Depending on the model you purchase, and it’s respective star rating will determine how much you can save annually. However looking beyond the initial cost to how you use your Multi-Head Split System can help as well.

Smarter Choice, Save Energy Water and Money

Tips For Using A Split System

Best Tip! Set the thermostat between 24C and 26C for cooling. Every degree lower in summer will increase the running costs by around 10%.

  • Use the economy setting if your split system has one and regularly service your air conditioner.
  • Keep the sun’s heat out by closing curtains and external blinds during the day. Close windows and doors to areas being cooled when the split system is running.
  • When the split system is switched off and its cooler outside, open doors and windows to let the cool air in.
  • Insulate your home to keep the heat out in summer and in during winter.
  • Dress to suit the weather conditions.

Why Choose Multi Head Split System?

Multi-Head Split Systems are an economical solution for cooling lots of different rooms. Multi-head air conditioners are relatively simple to install, and the installation process can be incorporated to your renovation or building project. Building occupants can adjust the heating/cooling in their own room. It is an ideal choice for large homes, office buildings, and multi-residential premises.

Various split system indoor unit types
When using a Multi-Head Split System, you’re not limited to just Wall Mounted indoor units, in fact you can choose from a whole range of different indoor units

Why Choose Coldflow for Multi-Head Split Systems?

Unlike single Split Systems which can be sold and installed by almost any air conditioning company, Multi-Head Split Systems can only be sold and installed by qualified air conditioning companies, it’s not even something that the big retail stores can sell and install. With over 150,000 heating and cooling installations completed, we have conducted thousands of Multi-Head air conditioning installations; combined with our experience, and range you won’t get a better solution anywhere else.

We supply and install a wide range of different multi head air conditioners at competitive prices. We’ll listen to your ideas, needs and budget constraints to help you decide which system would best suit your property. Our professional team can also repair and maintain your existing system at an affordable rate.

Can I add more indoor units to my existing multi head system later?

This depends on the capacity of your outdoor condenser. When installing a multi-head split system, we focus on sizing the system to meet your current needs. While it is sometimes possible to add additional indoor units later, this typically requires selecting a larger outdoor unit upfront. In most cases, customers choose not to oversize the outdoor unit purely for potential future expansion, as this increases the initial installation cost. If your needs change down the track, our technicians can assess your existing system and advise on the most practical upgrade options at that time.

What brands do you recommend for multi-room cooling?

We highly recommend Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, and Fujitsu for multi head configurations due to their superior inverter technology and reliability. As a Mitsubishi Diamond Dealer, we can provide expert advice on the best MXZ series models to suit your specific floor plan.

Do you offer repairs and maintenance for multi head units?

Yes. Because these systems have more connection points and complex valving than single units, regular maintenance is vital. Coldflow provides comprehensive multi head split system servicing to check for refrigerant leaks, clean all internal filters, and ensure the outdoor compressor is operating at peak efficiency.

Ray did an excellent job. As it turned out, the error that caused the problem was cleared when the power was off after the storm, but he still made sure the system was working properly by doing a really thorough check of everything. Very helpful, professional and clearly very keen to make sure the job was done properly. Great work!
