How to Pick the Right Air Conditioning Unit for You
The AC unit you choose depends on your location, climate, and budget. Your unit should have the ability to cool and warm every room, unless you only require a portable air conditioner for a bedroom or a specialised unit for a grocery storage room.
At D-Mec, we give expert advice on and install the most popular brands, such as Daikin, Panasonic, and Fujitsu. You can consider additional features, including a smart app or air filtration, once you’ve found the right AC type. So, which one is suitable for you?
Ceiling Cassettes:
Ceiling cassettes can be integrated into your ceiling to increase the appeal of your space. They are easier to maintain than other systems while still providing even cooling. Ceiling cassettes also use less energy for anyone looking to save on their bills.
Suitable for:
– Retail
– Restaurants
– Offices
Ceiling Types:
Ceiling-mounted units are suitable for both small and large spaces. They make the most of your space and provide an even amount of cooling. A portable unit is better as a small AC for a room within a larger space, such as storage cupboards, where you would have a different unit for the main space.
Suitable for:
– Offices
– Retail
– Restaurants
– Cafes
Duct Types:
Duct units are more expensive than other systems because of the amount of benefits they offer. These units truly utilise your entire space by staying hidden in the ceiling or behind a wall, but this doesn’t make them any less efficient. They do require an outdoor unit, but this makes the indoor units almost silent.
Suitable for:
– Larger rooms
– Houses
– Restaurants
– Warehouses
– Hospitals
– Educational settings
– General residential
– General commercial
Floor Types:
Floor types are suitable for larger spaces, including open-plan, because they provide even cooling throughout the property. They utilise the entire space and can even be integrated into the floor to improve aesthetics.
Suitable for:
– Large rooms
– Houses
– Offices
– Warehouses
– General commercial
– General residential
Floor-Ceiling Types:
Floor-ceiling air conditioners offer even, precise cooling and heating throughout the room. They are more low maintenance, energy-efficient, and quieter than other units, ensuring focus during work or your daily routine.
Suitable for:
– Small rooms
– Offices
– Houses
– Flats
– General residential
Multi-Split Systems:
Multi-split systems offer precise temperature control per unit. While you will require an outdoor unit, they are more energy-efficient and cost-effective than other systems, so they’re perfect for anyone trying to save on energy costs.
Suitable for:
– Offices
– Flats
– Houses
– General residential
Wall Types:
Wall types are easy to install and low maintenance. If you require a more affordable, small AC for a room, a portable unit may be better. However, wall types provide precise cooling for singular rooms and small spaces.
Suitable for:
– Small rooms
– Offices
– Flats
– General residential
