- small , save space 
- easy to use

-heavy

Split type air con has two units in total, one indoor unit for cool/ hot air bowl out , one outdoor unit for fan, motor and other parts, 

Advantage : 
- Quiet >>because motor and indoor unit is separate .

- has larger capacity

Disadvantage :
- not easy to install,
- Take outdoor space
- it might require insurance or scaffolding while installation/ repair
