 When indoor space is limited, a packaged or rooftop air conditioning or heating unit can be the perfect solution. These all-in-one systems contain sit outside, either on the ground or on the roof, allowing you to save valuable indoor space. No need for anything to be inside. Since all of the major HVAC components are outside the home, package systems are also easy for your technician to access when it comes to maintenance. Heated and cooled air will travel from the system outside and into your home through way of duct work。
The difference between a split system and a packaged unit is that the components of a split system are separated, with one part (condenser) residing outside and another part (air handler) residing inside. With a packaged unit, all components are housed in the same metal cabinet outside.

This is one time when thinking inside the box is preferable. Essentially, these units put the air conditioner and heater in the same box as the air handler. Typically, the air handler goes on the inside of the house while the condenser stays outside. But for various reasons - usually space limitations - it just makes better sense to keep it all together in a box cabinet. In addition to traditional houses, these units are perfect for mobile and manufactured homes.

This combination heating and air conditioning unit can be mounted on the roof, especially in the case of businesses with flat roofs. It can also be mounted on a slab at ground level. This is more often the best placement for private homes.

The components that go into a package unit are essentially the same as regular AC systems, and the type of components you get depends on your individual needs. For much of the country, a condenser/air handler/heat pump system is the ideal choice. But for those living in more northern climes, a condenser/air handler/gas furnace system might work better. Those living in the south can get by with a two-phase system that includes just the condenser and the air handler.
