Ducted Air Conditioning Brisbane

WHAT’S A DUCTED AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM?

A ducted air conditioning system is a system that can effectively cool or heat your entire home or office, without multiple separate systems operating.

The system consists of two parts, the first part is the external unit, which is usually situated outside the property. This unit is known as the condenser.

There is also an internal unit in a ducted air conditioning system, known as the indoor air handling unit, or evaporator.

FLEXIBLE AIR FLOW DIRECTION

In a ducted air conditioning system, cool air is pumped through a system of pipes, called ducts, which are located in the roof space.

These ducts are usually made of silver to reflect heat better, which helps the air inside to remain cool as it moves. Often a steel coil inside the duct will add strength, and extra insulation is around the ducts which helps with energy efficiency.

Having ducts deliver your airflow, as opposed to a traditional fixed airflow by a split-system, means you get more flexibility in building your ideal air conditioning system.

ZONING OF ROOMS AND AREAS FOR BETTER EFFICIENCY

The greatest advantage of ducted air conditioning systems is the energy efficiency that you get with ‘zoning’, where you divide your interior space into different areas or ‘zones’. This allows your system to work more effectively than a traditional split-system air conditioner, where airflow is limited to only one area.

Rooms or areas can be zoned individually, giving you full control over the airflow in each zone, maximising the efficiency of air conditioning as opposed to split-system air conditioners, where you do not get that much flexibility in control.

FURTHER REGULATE AIRFLOW WITH DAMPERS

A ducted air conditioning system gives you even more control over your airflow than a split-system air conditioner with zone motors (or dampers) that control the air being circulated into each zone via diffusers.

Depending on whether the zone is “open” or “off”, the dampers open and close to allow the air to enter the room.

The result is more efficiently run air flow throughout your entire home, as opposed to split-system air conditioners that only have air flow in one direction.

AT HOME

Ever wished that you could yank your split-system air conditioner out of the wall and shift it elsewhere in your house?

Because of the design and nature of split-system air conditioners, the cooling coverage of your home is limited depending on the number of units you install.

That’s where the benefits of ducted air conditioning systems become instantly clear.

If there are many rooms in your house that are used simultaneously, ducted air conditioning systems can offer you complete coverage, meaning you can have your entire house covered by the ducted air conditioner simultaneously.

That means no more walking out of a room into hot air; you can walk around your entire house in complete comfort.

AT WORK

If you’re running an office building: the benefits of complete cooling coverage is obvious too; no more complaints from your colleagues that one portion of the office is too cold, or warm. Ducted air conditioners ensure uniform cooling throughout your entire space.

BLEND IN, NOT STAND OUT

Nobody wants a bulky looking air conditioner in their home. It’s intrusive, obstructive, and can ruin your home’s design.

That’s where a ducted air conditioning system comes in to save the day.

Ducted air conditioners come in a range of designs, and can be customised to fit a diverse number of use cases.

When installed properly (with the right installation partner like Voltora Industries), ducted air conditioners can blend well into your home’s design, and offer silent cooling comfort in the background.

If you’re looking to rebuild or remodel your house into a modern design, you can’t ignore the benefits a ducted air conditioning system will give to your renovation.

CONTROL YOUR DUCTED AIR CONDITIONERS ANYWHERE

A mobile app offered by some ducted air conditioning systems means that you can now view and control your cooling system right from your device, as long as you have an Internet connection.

TWEAK. CUSTOMISE. ANYTIME. ANYWHERE.

With mobile applications come the ability to control even more functions of your ducted air conditioning system on the go.

Turn your unit on/off, adjust set temperature, change the mode, fan speed and air direction right from your device.

SUITABLE FOR SINGLE OR TWO STORY FAMILY HOMES

Ducted refrigerated air conditioning systems are perfect for family homes.

They are easy to control and adjust for more efficient cooling and/or heating, and can be centrally zoned to reduce running costs even further.

Ducted air conditioning systems recycle air at around 12 times per hour, with your fan, ducting, and fittings situated in the roof space.

For greater quiet and comfort, the condenser is located outside, keeping noise produced by your system to a minimal, allowing you to enjoy quality, quiet comfort at home.

SUITABLE FOR MULTI-STOREY HOMES & COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS

If you are staying in a multi-storey house, a ducted refrigerated variable refrigerant flow air conditioner is the right choice for you.

This type of system is perfect for multi-storey homes that have minimal cavity space for ducting to go into and for commercial buildings. Of compact design, they offer individual room/ area air conditioning control with high quality components and high energy efficiency.

Build Your Ducted Air Conditioning System With Air Conditioning Experts

When you’re making a significant investment such as ducted air conditioning systems, there’s no space for error.

You need more than an average tradesman to install your ducted system. You need someone who is:

• • An Experienced Electrician to ensure that you have enough capacity in your electrical installation, to allow for your new air conditioning system
  • Well-versed in air conditioning installations to make set-up a breeze for you
  • Fully certified with the relevant licenses and authorities to make sure we are adhering to the latest industry regulations and standards.

The truth of the matter is this: the level of comfort that you enjoy from your air conditioning system depends heavily on who installs your air conditioning system in the first place.

Dirty Air Conditioners Drag Comfort Levels Down

Clogged or dust filled air conditioners result in leakages, blockages or impure air output.

When that happens, your unit does not receive the optimal airflow that your air conditioner should provide, and less-than-optimal efficiency is reflected in a higher power bill.

Voltora helps you to maintain your ducted air conditioning system with our extensive services, so that your system runs at its best again.

The result is a well-functioning air conditioner that provides you with the level of comfort that you bought it for in the first place.
