But that begs the question, what exactly is a ducted air conditioning unit and how does it work? Well, to find this out and more, read on to learn exactly why ducted systems are the best choice for commercial properties.

What is a ducted system?

Much like ductless air conditioning, ducted systems deliver temperature-controlled airflow into your property. Simply choose your preferred cooler temperature and your system will achieve it for you using science and a little bit of magic – but there are some differences. All air conditioning units use air to cool gas in the evaporator. As heat is removed from the air it cools. This cooled air is then blown into the property to cool it. Both ducted and ductless have an outdoor unit, but ducted systems use vents and ‘ducts’ (or passages in your roof/walls) to channel the cooled air throughout a property. This means larger buildings with multiple rooms can all be cooled simultaneously with units in various rooms.

Why is it the best option?

Rather than having multiple systems to heat individual spaces, or one system that can only cool one part of the property, ducted air conditioning gives you more control over the property as a whole. Cool multiple rooms and have control over different temperatures in different areas. Ducted air con is a game-changer when it comes to creating a cool and comfortable office.
