Ducted Systems

Heat or Cooling For An Entire Home

Ducted heat pumps provide discreet air conditioned comfort. They can be installed in a new home or tailored to suit an existing one, & once installed, only the controller, the return air & discharge grilles are visible inside the home.

For additional benefit, a heat recovery/reclaim ventilation system can be incorporated into the ducted system allowing for continuous ventilation to keep the house fresh & dry without the need to open windows or doors.
