Ceiling Cassettes

A cassette heat pump / air conditioner operates on the same principles as other split system heat pumps / air conditioners. It utilises the refrigeration cycle to transfer heat between the indoor and outdoor units.

In cooling mode, the cassette heat pump / air conditioner absorbs heat from the indoor air, effectively cooling the room. This heat is then released outside through the outdoor unit.

During heating mode, the system reverses the process. It extracts heat from the outdoor air, even in colder temperatures, and transfers it indoors to provide warmth.

With its unique design, the cassette heat pump / air conditioner is installed in the ceiling, ensuring optimal air distribution and coverage. Whether you’re looking for a single room heat pump / air conditioner or multi system heating, this makes it an excellent choice for maintaining a comfortable environment in various New Zealand homes.

Fujitsu offers a range of cassette heat pumps / air conditioners to cater to diverse needs.

2. 4-Way Flow Cassette: The 4-way cassette heat pump / air conditioner features adjustable vanes that distribute air in four directions, ensuring even airflow throughout the room. This type of cassette heat pump / air conditioner offers enhanced comfort and coverage.

Circular Cassette: The circular cassette is characterised by its unique circular design, which enables 360-degree airflow. It delivers uniform temperature distribution and eliminates cold spots..

Cassette heat pumps / air conditioners offer numerous advantages, making them a popular choice for efficient heating and cooling. These benefits include:

1. Discreet Installation: Cassette heat pumps / air conditioners are recessed into the ceiling, resulting in a discreet and visually appealing installation that blends seamlessly with the decor of the space.

2. Efficient airflow distribution: Designed to provide even airflow distribution, cassette heat pumps / air conditioners ensure consistent comfort throughout the room, eliminating hot or cold spots.

3. Flexible installation options: Cassette units can be installed in various ceiling types, such as suspended or plasterboard ceilings, offering flexibility in placement.

4. Energy efficiency: Like other ductless systems, cassette heat pumps / air conditioners prioritise energy efficiency, helping to reduce energy consumption and lower utility costs. This makes them an eco-friendly and cost-effective choice for New Zealand homes.

When considering the best cassette heat pump / air conditioner, these advantages make cassette heat pumps a compelling option for efficient and customisable climate control.

Cassette heat pumps / air conditioners are highly suitable for both residential and commercial use. These versatile units are commonly found in offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and other commercial settings where efficient cooling and heating, as well as aesthetic considerations, are essential. Additionally, residential heat pumps / air conditioners are an excellent choice for home, especially in rooms with limited wall space for wall mounted units.

While cassette units can serve both residential and commercial needs, it's worth noting that specific commercial heat pumps / air conditioners are available to cater to the unique requirements of commercial heat pump / air conditioner settings. These dedicated commercial heat pumps / air conditioners offer enhanced performance and features to meet the demands of larger spaces.

Whether for residential or commercial use, cassette heat pumps / air conditioners provide efficient climate control and are a versatile option for achieving optimal comfort.

Cassette heat pumps / air conditioners typically require a certain amount of clearance above the ceiling for installation. In rooms with low ceiling heights, it is essential to assess whether there is sufficient space to accommodate the installation of a cassette heat pump / air conditioner.

To determine the suitability of installing a cassette heat pump / air conditioner in a room with low ceiling heights, it is recommended to consult with a Fujitsu Accredited Installer. They will  evaluate the available space and provide guidance on the best options for your specific situation.
