What is a ducted air conditioner?

Ducted air conditioning also has two units, but uses ducts to deliver conditioned air throughout a building. In a ducted system, the indoor unit is hidden in the ceiling cavity or underneath the floor, and rather than blowing conditioned air directly into the room, the air is circulated through ducts and released into the building from vents. Because airflow can be controlled from within the ducting, ducted air conditioning is able to designate zones throughout the system, which can be turned on and off individually. This allows you to turn air conditioning off for rooms/zones that aren’t being used, which saves electricity and reduces your power bill. Ducted air conditioning is better suited to homes that require a large amount of space to be cooled/heated, across multiple rooms.

Split systems are controlled with remotes, and ducted systems are controlled with panels fitted to the wall. Both systems are able to have smart technology installed, allowing them to be controlled through phones, tablets, and computers.
