Floor Standing AC

The name “floor air conditioner” is self-explanatory since it is essentially standing on the floor. Sometimes it is also referred to as a tower air conditioner. It has a large propeller fan and diverse rotation features, which allows wide spaces like restaurants, corridors, hotels, etc., to be cooled in the shortest possible time.

The tower ACs are composed of two parts: internal and external. The indoor unit may be positioned in any room corner, whereas the outdoor unit is located outside the home to delete warm air. 

Floor Standing AC Difference With Split AC

Floor standing AC works on the mechanism of any other AC; the difference is that it doesn’t need to be installed through the window. You can place it on the floor. It can be easily moved as it hasn’t been fixed on the wall like a split AC. one more thing, it has a big throw of cooling air as compared to other AC.

Their working mechanism is similar to window AC; the air is sucked into ac, passing through pipes containing freon gas. Then hot air is sucked from outside using a large insulating pipe.

Advantages

The benefits of using a floor-standing air conditioner include

1. They can be used to cool down a large area in a short time
2. Their large fans allow them to give us more CFM than any other inverter AC
3. They aren’t fixed to the wall, so we can easily move them. This allows us to readjust their direction easily.

Disadvantages

As we know that every cloud has a silver lining. Below are some of the disadvantages of using a floor-standing air conditioner:

1. Floor standing air conditioners are not as energy-efficient as split AC.
2. When dampness from the air is collected, it goes directly into the collecting tray located at the bottom, which needs to be emptied after a specific interval.
3. Floor standing air conditioners are also more expensive than split AC because they are bigger and must be placed on the floor stand.
