Everyone deserves to have the best climate in their homes, work, and social places; particularly in Australia, which is one of the hottest countries in the world.

One of the best ways to feel comfort and luxury in your homes is through a ducted air conditioner installation.

So, if you’d like to know more about this system – from what they are to how they work – you’re in the right place.

The Functionality of a Ducted Air Con

A ducted air conditioner is able to cool your entire home. It has a central operating system that, first, cools the air, and second, distributes this collected, cool air through several ducts into all the rooms inside your home.

In addition to a cooling ducted air conditioner, you can select a reverse cycle ducted air conditioner system. This will both cool you in hot summers, and warm you up in cold winters.

Where Are the Ducted Air Conditioning Units Installed?

The installation of ducted air conditioner units depends on your home. They are, however, usually installed in your ceiling, beneath the floor, or outside.

Ducted air conditioners can also be fitted with inverters. Inverters allow the air conditioner to be more energy efficient by sustaining a regular temperature.

Without inverters, the air conditioner will use more electricity since it needs to power on and off to sustain its temperature.

What Are the Benefits of a Ducted System?

1. Ducted air conditioners can cool your entire home

Rather than cooling a single room, ducted air conditioners can cool your entire home by regulating at a constant temperature.

If there are some rooms that are not in use, or if you’d like to be more energy-efficient, you can tell your ducted air conditioner to zone.

This means it will only operate in the rooms you would like it to.

2. You’ll barely see the ducted air conditioner

Since all the components and operating systems are under the floor or in the ceiling, you can’t see the ducted air conditioner.

You’ll only see the vents allowing the cooled air into the room. You won’t have to find space to place a wall unit, nor will you have to worry about changing the aesthetics or design of your room to cater for the air conditioner.

3. Ducted air systems are professionally tailored to your home

A ducted air conditioner needs to be tailored to the layout of your home or commercial building.

After examining your home, the air conditioning specialist will design a tailored solution for you – from the size, to how many vents you’ll need.

So, the ducted air conditioner will not be too small or too large, which will allow you to benefit from its system in the most efficient way.
