thank you very much for your advice.
unfortunately after measuring the compressor area, I won't have enough space for a slightly bigger cassette compressor. There is enough space but only if all 3 compressors are stacked on top of each other without any spacing.
cassette compressor = 875 w x 695 h x 320 d
split compressor 2x = 718 w x 525 h x 255 d


btw I already have piping in my condo done by the developer, can I change to this higher end piping?
or would it be too much work for the ac guy to change the piping?
i assume the piping will be more leakproof hence worth the extra few hundred investment.
thanks
There is such a thing as a
multi-split system where one large compressor services up to 4 locations depending upon the model. One compressor to one location is typically called single split. What's deployed at each location doesn't matter as long as it's within piping spec. It can be wall mounted in bedrooms and ceiling cassette in living / dining not exceeding total HP of the multi split compressor. These are common esp in SG typically referred to as system 2, 3 or 4 depending upon the number of AC locations.
The wall where the three AC compressor is located should be blowing out into the void with multiple thin pillar grille screening so that there's unrestricted air flow otherwise the compressors will die of heat stress.
