What is a Ducted System?

Ducted air conditioning is an economical way to control the temperature and humidity in your home or office where there are multiple rooms that all need air conditioning.


Ducted air conditioning systems consist of the following: 

  • Indoor unit: An indoor fan coil unit is installed inside your ceiling space (the average system requires a minimum ceiling space of 600mm). This distributes the air through insulated ductwork to the rooms required. This fan coil can be adjusted to control the air being circulate both for temperature and air flow.


  • Zoning: Zones can be added to allow areas to be shut down when not required. This gives you the flexibility to switch areas on or off as required. For example, it is common to separate the bedrooms from the living areas, allowing you to use either one zone at any one time or both whenever required, saving you money on running costs.


  • Outdoor unit: The outdoor unit is located externally in a suitable location and is connected via copper pipes and electrically to the indoor unit in the ceiling. We recommend Toshiba inverter ducted systems (made in Japan); they are quieter and energy efficient.



  • Outlets: Air vents or diffusers are fitted through the ceiling in the rooms required. Insulated flexible ducting connects the fan coil unit to these air vents to transport the flow of climate-controlled air. Outlets come in many styles.
  • Return air vent: A return air vent is centrally located to draw the air that has been circulated throughout the premise to recondition the air to the temperature that has been selected. This also includes a dust filter which can be cleaned, ensuring your system provides you with clean, healthy air.


  • Thermostat controller: Thermostat controllers vary from unit to unit; they can range from a standard temperature-control operation or programmable time/temperature settings.



  • Smart zone control system with optional Wi-Fi: The ultimate control system allows you to pre-program each individual zone to switch on and off at different times and select individual temperatures per zone. Each zone works independently, allowing the system to control the selected temperature whenever required in each room. This ensures everyone is comfortable all year round. The Wi-Fi option allows you to control your system from your mobile phone while you are at home or away.

Why Install a Ducted Air Conditioning System?

When it comes to climate control, nothing beats the efficiency and versatility of a ducted air conditioning system. Unlike split or window units that cool one room at a time, a ducted system provides uniform cooling (or heating) across multiple rooms or an entire building.


The system operates through a network of ducts connected to an indoor unit, usually installed in the roof space. These ducts lead to vents in each room, allowing for efficient distribution of air. The result? A comfortable environment, regardless of the size or layout of your space.


One of the standout features of a ducted system is 'zoning'. This allows you to divide your home or office into different zones, each with its own temperature control. So, you can keep the living room cool while maintaining a warmer temperature in the bedrooms or switch off cooling in unused areas to save energy.

FAQs

  • What is the role of the indoor fan coil unit in a ducted system?

    The indoor fan coil unit is a critical component of a ducted air conditioning system. It houses the evaporator coil and the blower fan, both of which play pivotal roles in the cooling process. The evaporator coil is where the actual cooling happens. When the system is in operation, warm air from your home is pulled in through the return air vent and passed over this coil. The refrigerant inside the coil absorbs the heat from the air, causing it to cool down. The blower fan then pushes this cooled air into the ductwork, from where it is distributed throughout your home. The fan's speed can be adjusted to control the volume of air being circulated, allowing for precise temperature control. 

  • How does an energy-efficient ducted system save money?

    Energy-efficient ducted systems are designed to use less energy while delivering the same level of comfort. They achieve this through several innovative features. For instance, they use variable speed compressors that can adjust their speed based on the cooling demand. This means the system doesn't have to work as hard on cooler days or during times when less cooling is needed, resulting in significant energy savings.

  • How can I ensure the longevity of my ducted system?

    Ensuring the longevity of your ducted system primarily involves regular maintenance. This includes routine tasks like cleaning or replacing air filters, which can become clogged with dust and other particles over time. A clogged filter forces the system to work harder to circulate air, leading to increased energy consumption and potential damage to the system.
