What Is A Floor Ceiling Air Conditioner? Benefits, Uses & Installation Tips

In commercial and large space environments, how to choose proper air conditioning equipment becomes a key point. Frequently, there are wall mounted type, floor standing type, and central air conditioning systems. Relying on its flexible installation feature and the cost-effective advantage, floor ceiling air conditioner is more and more welcomed in the market. So, what is a floor ceiling air conditioner? What scenarios is it suited for? And how do we install it to enlarge its cooling performance? The article is to explain all those aspects.

 

I. What is a floor ceiling air conditioner?

 

Floor ceiling type air conditioner (also known as ceiling suspended air conditioner) is an air conditioning unit with a flat appearance and compact structure. It could be hung under the ceiling and placed on the ground near the wall. Because of their flexible installation methods, floor ceiling AC units neither occupy floor spaces nor are limited by the height of spaces, and they are widely used in various commercial and industrial circumstances.

 

 

II. Features of a floor ceiling ac unit

 

1. Flexible installation

Floor ceiling ACs can be put on the ground and close to the wall like a standing air conditioner or installed on the ceiling like a duct unit. They are quite suitable for rooms with different structures and floor heights.

 

2. Space-saving

Placed on the floor, the floor mounted air conditioner is close to the wall and does not affect the paths of human activities. Installed on the ceiling, the floor areas are completely released. It is a good choice for commercial events that need to maximize the use of spaces.

 

3. Wide-angle air supply

The unit is designed to provide wind in a wide angle, which could cover the whole room, effectively prohibiting uneven cooling/heating and improving the comfort.

 

4. High cost-effectiveness

Compared with central air conditioning systems, floor ceiling air conditioners need less investment and are easy to maintain, which makes them ideal options for small and medium business places.

 

5. Easy maintenance

No need for complicated ceiling openings and the ducting; the inspection and maintenance are faster, reducing subsequent operating costs.

 

III. Multi-Scenario adaptability

 

Combined with two methods of installation, a ceiling suspended air conditioner is very suitable for the places below:

  • Education institutes: Classrooms, training rooms, laboratories, etc.
  • Commercial places: malls, convenient stores, exhibition halls, dining halls, etc.
  • Office zones: Conference rooms, joint office areas, front desk reception zones, etc.
  • Medical institutes: Hospital awaiting areas, rehabilitation centers, etc.
  • Industrial environments: Workshops, logistics centers, packaging areas, etc.
  • Temporary buildings: Activity exhibition halls, emergency office areas, construction site offices, etc.

 

 

IV. Installation Tips and Precautions

 

Recommendations for ceiling installation

  • Check the hoisting structure capacity for load-bearing: Make sure that the installation point on the ceiling can bear the weight of the indoor unit and the parts for shock absorption.
  • Reserve maintenance space: At least 50cm of distance is left for maintenance and cleaning in the future.
  • Reasonable piping for refrigerant and drainage: avoid excessive bends to trigger refrigerant pressure attenuation or poor drainage.

 

Recommendations for floor installation

  • Stably placed against the wall: Put the machine on the ground, the back close to the wall. This will help us to fix and lay the pipes.
  • Moisture-proof treatment: Keep the ground dry and flat before installation. We can set up a base or shock-proof pad.
  • Avoid blocking the air outlet: Make sure the air supply and return outlets are unobstructed to maintain good air circulation.
  • Keep the air outlet vent clean: Ensure the air supply and return outlets are unobstructed to maintain good air circulation.
