Some manufacturers create models that are ideal for installation in suspended ceilings, with dimensions of 600x600 mm, that is, with a ceiling cell.
Duct air conditioners
Indoor units of duct type air conditioners are mounted above the false ceiling. The sizes of indoor units of air conditioners depend on the power of static pressure.
