Ceiling air conditioning has several advantages over wall split systems. Therefore, many consumers pay attention to this unusual form of climate technology. You can buy ceiling air conditioning in any large specialized store. But how to choose the right model?
Features of ceiling air conditioners
If the apartment does not have suspended ceilings, then it makes sense to buy a floor-and-ceiling air conditioning.
Based on the name, it is clear that it can be mounted on the ceiling or on the floor (on the wall near the baseboard). Having chosen the first installation option, owners will forever forget about drafts and an unpleasant cold “wind” from the air ducts. The air flow runs parallel to the ceiling, gradually decreasing and carrying out a cycle of natural convection. This is a very comfortable type of room cooling. It is also optimal for rooms of complex configuration: cool jets will fall even in the most remote corners of the room.
Mounted on the floor, the air conditioner is completely invisible, it will blow air upward, parallel to the wall. As a rule, equipment is mounted near the outer wall to reduce the length of the cold track. Thus, owners of a unique design of the ceiling and walls, who do not want to spoil their openings, can also buy ceiling air conditioning.
Ceiling air conditioners are most often purchased for large areas (140 - 180 sq. Meters). Although there are models for 35 square meters. meters, but this is rather the exception. Therefore, due to the power and price of ceiling air conditioners, higher than conventional split systems.
Power model
The calculation of the performance of the air conditioner is carried out according to the formula:
Q = Q1 + Q2 + Q3,
hereQ1 - the volume of the room in cubic meters,Q2 - the influx of heat from persons in the room,Q3 - the influx of heat from appliances and equipment.
Subtleties of choice
Ceiling air conditioners are produced by both economy-class brands and the best manufacturers.
So, if you want to buy a Daikin floor and ceiling air conditioner, you should get an amount of 160 thousand rubles. The minimum power of Daikin ceilings is 7 kilowatts. And if you want to buy an inverter system, the price of ceiling air conditioners increases to 240 thousand. This is a powerful 12-kilowatt unit, working up to -20 degrees on the street and coping with any known operating modes.
Despite the high price, in some cases, floor-to-ceiling air conditioning is the only way out. For example, if the room has glass walls.
