Unlike split system air conditioners requiring separate heating and cooling units, ducted reverse cycle systems heat and cool the home from one central thermostat control. This provides total climate comfort with maximum flexibility.
A ducted air conditioning system can also include an air purifying feature, which is excellent for allergy sufferers and people who struggle with hay fever or asthma. Ford & Doonan offers the Clean Air filter pack as standard. For more information about the ducted reverse cycle air conditioning installation Adelaide, click here.
Cost-Effective
When it comes to all-in-one cooling and heating for your home, there’s nothing quite like a ducted reverse cycle system. Designed with Melbourne’s sub-tropical conditions in mind, these systems perform flawlessly all year round – cooling you in summer and warming you up in winter!
This is possible because the ducting is hidden in the roof space, with only the controller and return and discharge grilles or ceiling vents visible inside your house. This makes the system far less intrusive than single-split air conditioners.
Ducted air conditioning systems use a heat pump to move refrigerant around and transform it from liquid to gas. This process uses far less electricity than generating heat from fuel, making it more cost-efficient to run.
Energy-Efficient
A ducted system is more energy efficient than wall-mounted air conditioners as it uses a heat pump to reverse the refrigeration cycle and be used for heating. The heat pump transfers existing warmth within your home into the refrigerant, which is then cooled and liquefied again for heating.

The indoor unit of a ducted air conditioning system is located in the roof space and is connected to vents throughout your home via ducting. This creates a more seamless look than the outdoor units of split systems, making it less visually intrusive.
Ducted systems also have the added advantage of zoning, allowing different areas of your home to be cooled or heated as required. This helps minimise usage in unoccupied rooms and saves on power costs.
Versatile
A popular choice for custom home builders and owners of high-end houses, ducted reverse cycle systems are a luxury temperature control solution. They offer year-round comfort by cooling and heating your home with one central thermostat.
A ducted air conditioning system is also highly energy-efficient. It absorbs heat from outside air and distributes it throughout your home – much more efficient than creating heat, which uses much energy.
This energy efficiency translates into cost savings. Your licenced, professional dealer can provide a detailed cost analysis of your home and recommend an optimal system for your unique needs. This will ensure you get the most out of your investment and enjoy optimum climate control all year round. This is especially important in Australia’s diverse climate.
Easy to Operate
A ducted reverse cycle air conditioning system operates through a network of ducts from the indoor unit, usually installed in the roof space. The ducts are then connected to different rooms/zones in your home, which you can isolate and air condition as needed.
These systems use a chemical known as a refrigerant to absorb, move and transform thermal energy between liquid and gas states. The heat pump then uses this energy to cool or warm your home, using less electricity than a traditional air conditioner and producing far lower greenhouse gas emissions.

Quiet
Ducted air conditioning systems offer quiet operation compared to other cooling options. This is because they have no noisy outdoor units, and indoor units are hidden behind a ceiling or wall, so you don’t see them.
Many modern air conditioners have advanced inverter technology that gently increases and decreases power to reach and maintain your chosen temperature. This also reduces operating noise, maximising your family’s comfort while sleeping or working.
