I need an aircon for my room. Already has a hole for a window type but my contractor can cover it up and convert to split type.

Panasonic's 1hp split type inverter is 26k including installation. Their window type inverter is 28k.

Any reason why I should go for window type over split type?

If split type, compressor will be at the balcony right beside the split type ACU so maintenance shouldn't be an issue.

Window can be swapped DIY in minutes, sir. Easier & less mess to clean, too. Most designers would recommend split to clients for looks & silence. Ironically, most I know & work with use window whenever they can in their own homes.[emoji13]

Yeah I prefer looks and silence over ease of maintenance. Wala naman ako balak mag-DIY. No fun in cleaning aircons for me.

So split type?

ACs breakdown & will periodically need swapping. These are the moments one would wish window instead of split. Downtime is short w/ no extra hands needed. If you decide split, don't embed the lines.
It's really lifestyle & preference dependent, sir. Having seen homeowner complaints & experience, I lean window more.

Yeah so pag sira, sabihin natin once every 2 years (conservative pa yan since my 20 year old National split type hasn't needed servicing in over 3 yrs), mas convenient window. Wala naman kaso sakin yung maghintay ng electrician na gagawa - aircons are just a convenience and not a necessity for a good night's sleep.

Pag ayos, so that's 729 days every 2 years, the split type is better since it looks better, runs quieter, and consumes less electricity (13.4 EER vs 10.6 for the window). Did I get it right?

Basically, yes. To help minimize the chances of split trouble, try requesting PPR drain pipes of at least 1.25" dia instead of the industry standard(sub actually) 0.75" dia....& avoid embedding lines in walls. Ask for proper insulation, too.
Pardon my OCD, sir. In our practice, we do our best to not be called back to do the same job more than once....Personally, I'm not 1 to bother & prefer fresh repeats....not back jobs.[emoji4]

Thanks for the tips. Looks like you're in the construction/interior design business so the advice is much appreciated.

Moving on, I was initially inclined to get a Panasonic aircon but turns out it has a much lower EER (13.4) vs LG which has an EER of 15.8. Daikin's is even lower at 12.5.

Higher EER is always better right?

Anytime....We're involved by profession & passion in both Construction & Automotive industries, sir.
EER is basically cooling output/energy input. The higher, the more efficient....Grab the Daikin, sir. Hands down, proven best.[emoji108]
