Service Overview
What ducted air conditioning is
In a ducted system, the indoor unit sits out of sight in a ceiling void, loft or bulkhead. Conditioned air travels through ductwork and enters rooms through slim grilles in the ceiling or wall. The outdoor unit sits outside as normal.
Ducted systems suit anyone who wants air conditioning without visible units: new builds, extensions, refurbishments, high-end homes, offices, shops, restaurants and medical premises.
The best time to consider ducted air conditioning is during a build or refurbishment, when ceilings are open and ducts can be routed easily. It can also be fitted in existing buildings with suitable loft or ceiling space.
Ducted systems need careful design so air reaches every room evenly. We are F-Gas and REFCOM registered and an accredited installer for Panasonic, Samsung, LG and Mitsubishi.
Why It Matters
Where ducted installations go wrong
Undersized or badly routed ductwork restricts airflow. Rooms at the end of long runs stay warm while others are too cold, and the unit becomes noisy as it strains.
Hidden units are easy to forget. Without an access panel and yearly service, filters clog and drains block out of sight.
Leaving ducted air conditioning out of a build and adding it later usually means more disruption and cost.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Planning ducted air conditioning too late in a building project
- Not leaving an access panel for filters and servicing
- Using ducts that are too small for the airflow needed
- Placing grilles where air blows directly on people
- Forgetting condensate drainage from a ceiling unit

In Detail
Ducted systems for homes and businesses
Ducted air conditioning is flexible, but each building needs its own design.
New builds and extensions
Working with your builder, we fit the hidden parts while the walls and ceilings are open, then come back after plastering to fit the grilles and switch it on.
Existing homes
Where there is suitable loft or ceiling space, a ducted unit can serve upstairs rooms with minimal visible change.
Offices and shops
Ducted systems keep ceilings clean and uncluttered in offices and retail spaces. We can provide RAMS for commercial work.
Restaurants and medical premises
Discreet grilles suit dining rooms and clinical spaces where appearance and easy cleaning matter.
Access and servicing
We design in access so filters and drains can be cleaned. We recommend a yearly service for all systems.
Brands
We install ducted units from Panasonic, Samsung, LG and Mitsubishi as an accredited installer for all four.
