Ducted Air Conditioners It works by having a central unit

the ceiling, under the floor, or outside, depending on your specific home
In a nutshell it is air conditioning that works through a
ducted system throughout the house. The roof space houses a central fan coil
unit with a series of ducts that bring the cooled air into the various rooms of
the house. Just like the Split System Aircon, it requires an outdoor unit
positioned outside your home.
A ducted air conditioner is one that can cool your entire
home. It works by having a central unit
that cools the air and then distributes the cooled air via a series of ducts
into the rooms of your home. As well as
a cooling only ducted air conditioner, you can also choose a reverse cycle
ducted air conditioner. These are great
as they can cool your home in summer and heating it in winter. The air conditioner’s main units are
installed in the ceiling, under the floor, or outside, depending on your
specific home.
Ducted air conditioners can also be fitted with inverters
which make them much more energy efficient as the inverter allows the air
conditioner to maintain a consistent temperature by operating at the speed
required. Air conditioners without inverters, however, must keep powering on
and off in order to maintain temperature, which takes up more electricity
Ducted air conditioners are also incredibly unobtrusive, as
the only part of it you see are the vents that allow the cooled air to come
through the ceiling or the floor. All the operating equipment is safely hidden
away where you can’t see it. This means
no more having to find room to place a wall unit or trying to decorate around a
split system! Also, although they are unobtrusive, they are still easy to
access should they require maintenance or repairs.
Ducted air conditioners are not a “one size fits all”
solution and thus cannot be readily bought off the shelf, so to speak. The air conditioning professional will visit
your home and design a customized solution, from the size of the air
conditioning unit itself to the number of vents that you need, through to the
number of zones that you feel necessary.
This means that the air conditioner is perfectly tailored to the size of
your property, and not too small or too large.
