More and more mid-range and high-end apartments are being built today. One feature is that the investor and the construction unit want to optimize the space, so they do not leave a lot of space for the position of the air-conditioner outdoor unit, normally only 2 air-conditioning units can be placed at most.
Therefore, there is no other way we can use the central air-conditioner for the apartment with 1 outdoor unit for many indoor units.
