Why choose ceiling-mounted AC?
Ceiling-mounted systems are designed for environments where floor or wall space is limited, or where a clean, unobtrusive appearance is preferred. Positioned within a suspended or suitable fixed ceiling, they distribute air evenly across the room, helping reduce hot and cold spots and maintain comfortable conditions throughout the day.
- Multi-directional airflow improves air distribution
- Blends neatly into suspended ceilings
- Keeps walls and floors clear for furniture and displays
- Ideal for open-plan areas and larger rooms
- Low-noise operation suitable for meetings and lessons
Ceiling-mounted unit installations
We install four-way, two-way and compact cassette units from leading manufacturers, selected to match your room layout, noise requirements and expected usage. Units are designed for year-round use with high-efficiency heat pump technology.
Our installation process
1. Site survey
We assess ceiling voids, structural support, access routes, ventilation, heat loads and suitable outdoor unit locations. Any height or installation constraints are identified during the visit.
2. System design
A tailored design outlines unit capacity, cassette type, airflow direction and pipework routes. We ensure accessible maintenance points and reliable condensate drainage.
3. Professional installation
Installation is completed with minimal disruption, planned around your working hours where possible. All work is carried out to UK regulations and manufacturer standards.
4. Testing and commissioning
On completion, we confirm airflow, drainage, refrigerant pressures, noise levels and temperature performance. Your team receives guidance on control settings and efficient use.
Maintenance and aftercare
Regular servicing helps maintain performance, prevent drainage issues and support long-term efficiency. Our service team provides planned maintenance and one-off visits for all major AC brands.
