Splits are unreasonably expensive, and since there is now a compressor sitting somewhere outside and a bunch of piping, more stuff to maintain/go wrong. I remember buying my condo and seeing the split and thinking how convenient it is, but little did I realize after ten years the whole thing would need replacing. For what it cost, I could buy a new 5000 BTU unit every year and throw it out and break even after ten years.
