Why you need ducted air conditioner
Ducted air conditioner isn’t just for home use. It can also be utilised for commercial spaces, no matter how big or small the area is. Ideal for offices, shops and any area that experiences the extreme heat and cool, ducted cooling and heating works to perfectly climate control any space to any condition you want.
Reasons why you might consider ducted air con for your property include:
Fresh air – ducted systems offer clean, fresh and filters air into your environment that keeps your family healthy and comfortable. Dehumidify areas of a property – often the humidity in the air is hard to bear, and ducted air systems work to heat and cool the air and remove the humidity from areas, which causes condensation. The unit’s safety tray collects the water and catches any overflow and sends it out through a drain.
Low noise – compared with a wall mounted system which will have outdoor condenser units directly outside the window to bedrooms, a ducted system has an outdoor unit that can be placed away from bedrooms and located in an area that is far away from living spaces and areas when you live day to day. This lowers any noise from the system when it is in operation and ensures a good night’s sleep.
Inverter control – many ducted systems have inverter control technology that works to provide a more economical way to operate the AC systems. The inverter allows the unit to vary its speeds and can work to provide a 30% increase in efficiency – which provides lower running costs meaning the system is cheaper to run.
Sleek and seamless design – a ducted system doesn’t have bulky wall units, so the seamless design works into the décor and styling of a property and provides a clean look. Ducts work to push the filtered air throughout the property and provide the heating and cooling required for the perfect climate controlled environment. More information on ducted air conditioning.
