The position of the air conditioners should be selected in such a way so that their work should not disturb the residents and should not cause discomfort by direct blowing, cooling or heating.
During the installation of the air conditioners, their location must be consistent with the location of the outer walls. As a rule, the air conditioners are always installed on an outer wall - that wall of the room that gets the coldest in winter.
Exceptions can be made only at the presence of French windows along the entire facade of the building. Then, in order not to disturb the aesthetics of the façade, it is acceptable for the air conditioners to be installed on the adjacent walls.
The integrated under floor and built-in wall heating are also suitable option for the heating of the premises, especially in cases where the premises are small and every centimeter is valuable for the residents.
