Split airco in spring last year. I live top floor, flat roof with the living room facing south. Summers get real hot nowadays here, so last year was the first comfortable summer in our apartment in years. In winter we paid a fraction for heating as well. Best purchase in a long time.

They probably mean mini splits which are usually attached to heat pumps which I think they implied by the savings in the winter

Air conditioner. Split HVAC system is the kind that has an external evaporator that connects to a small wall mounted inside heater/air conditioner with just a small pipe. So you don't have to give up a window, and it uses an extremely efficient heat pump to both cool in the summer, and heat on the winter. Some of them don't heat.

Oh. That's the norm here. They're wonderful devices.
