Maximize Comfort with Floor Mounted Mini Split Systems
Not all air conditioners are installed on the mid-wall or ceiling. Sometimes, spaces are built in such a way that the best position for a mini split system is to be mounted low on the floor. However, doing so requires careful consideration of important factors:
Check wall stability: Ensure the wall is sturdy enough to hold the low wall mini split’s weight before you proceed with the installation.
Ensure and plan clear airflow: Make sure there’s no furniture, wall hangings, or other obstacles in front of the indoor unit, as that can limit the ductless mini-split air conditoner’s efficiency. Consider where the air will flow, especially side-to-side movement, for optimal performance.
Maintain good distance from appliances: Avoid installing the unit near electronics like microwaves or TVs, as they can disrupt the remote’s signal.
Stay out of direct sunlight: Position the unit away from sunlight, as it can interfere with accurate temperature readings.
