Wall-mounted Air Conditioning Units

Wall-mounted air con units are popular for residential and commercial spaces. Installed high on the wall, these units provide effective cooling and heating while maximizing floor space. They are known for their quiet operation, making them ideal for bedrooms, offices, and living rooms.

Wall-mounted units are also straightforward for an experienced AC engineer to install, meaning they’re a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution. With advanced features like temperature control and air filtration, these units deliver comfort and improved indoor air quality.

Floor-mounted Air Conditioning Units

Floor-mounted air conditioning units are an excellent option for spaces where wall-mounted units might not be feasible. These units are installed at ground level, making them perfect for rooms with low ceilings or limited wall space.

Floor-mounted units are highly efficient at heating and cooling, distributing air evenly throughout the room.
Floor-mounted air conditioning units are particularly popular in conservatories, basements, and other areas where traditional units may be challenging to install.

Ceiling-mounted Air Conditioning Units

Ceiling-mounted air conditioning units, often referred to as cassette units, are designed for larger, open spaces. They are installed in the ceiling, allowing for 360-degree air distribution, which makes them ideal for large rooms, offices, and retail spaces.

Ceiling-mounted units are discreet, blending seamlessly into the ceiling for a sleek, unobtrusive appearance. They offer powerful performance and are typically used in spaces requiring consistent temperature control. These units can be installed in suspended ceilings and more traditional ceiling types, making them a versatile option for various applications.
