Ducted air conditioning is a centralised climate control system that conditions air at a single concealed indoor unit and distributes it through a network of ducts to grilles in every room. If you need one system to handle multiple rooms rather than several individual units, ducted AC is the appropriate solution.
Andos Air delivers the ducted air conditioning installation Sunshine Coast homes and businesses require, with a focus on correct sizing, clean duct design and finish quality.
Our team stays current with developments in inverter technology, refrigerants and zoning controls, so the systems we recommend reflect what is available now rather than what was standard five years ago. That commitment has earned us multiple industry awards.
Every system we install receives rust-proofing treatment, protecting against corrosion driven by salt air and coastal humidity. This preserves efficiency, contains energy consumption and prolongs system life.
We also include a free upgrade to AirTouch 5 smart controls, which uses distributed sensors to eliminate hot and cold spots across the property.
Multi-zone ducted aircon divides a property into separate zones, each maintained at its own temperature by a single central unit. This gives you granular control over comfort and stops you paying to condition space nobody is using.
The system is built around an indoor air handler and an outdoor compressor. Ducts run through ceiling or floor cavities to deliver conditioned air to each room.
Each zone is fitted with a thermostat and sensor. The system continuously compares the actual temperature of every zone against your set point and adjusts automatically, so each area holds its target temperature without manual intervention.
Motorised metal dampers inside the ductwork open and close to control delivery. A damper opens to condition a zone and closes once the set temperature is reached, redirecting airflow elsewhere.
A bypass damper is installed to prevent pressure build-up in the ductwork when multiple zones close, protecting the fan and maintaining safe, stable operation.
Multi-zone control lets you manage climate area by area. You can keep upstairs cooler than downstairs or shut off unused rooms entirely, reducing heating and cooling costs by up to 30%. For independent comparisons of unit efficiency, check the Zoned Energy Rating Label data at energyrating.gov.au.
The system is also visually unobtrusive. The unit itself is completely concealed, leaving only the duct grilles visible.
Ducted systems are known for quiet operation. The noisy components sit outside the building, so indoor sound levels stay low.
An integrated climate control solution adds value to your property and improves its appeal to prospective buyers. Ducted AC costs more upfront than a split system installation, but its longevity and whole-home coverage make it highly cost-effective over the life of the system.
| Feature | Ducted Air Conditioning | Split System Air Conditioning |
|---|---|---|
| Best suited to | Larger homes, new builds, whole-property comfort | Apartments, smaller homes, one to three rooms |
| Visibility | Effectively invisible, only grilles show | Wall-mounted or ceiling-recessed indoor units visible |
| Zoning | Sophisticated multi-zone control with dampers | Room-by-room control via separate indoor units |
| Upfront cost | Higher | Lower |
| Installation | Requires ceiling or floor cavity space for ductwork | Minimal disruption, no ductwork required |
| Long-term value | Strong, particularly across multiple rooms | Strong for limited coverage areas |

Ducted air conditioning suits large properties and new builds, delivering whole-home comfort with sophisticated zoning while remaining effectively invisible. Split systems require multiple indoor units mounted on walls or recessed into ceilings. Ducted costs more upfront but covers the entire property from one concealed system.
We provide a 10-year installation warranty covering any issues arising from our workmanship, plus a five-year warranty on the unit itself. Every installation also includes complimentary rust-proofing, which protects the system against coastal corrosion and helps it hold rated efficiency for longer.
Yes. Zoning is the main driver. By conditioning only the areas in use and holding each zone at its own set point, a multi-zone ducted system can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 30% compared with conditioning the entire property uniformly.
Most modern ducted systems are reverse cycle, meaning the same equipment heats and cools. The refrigeration cycle reverses to draw heat into the property in winter, so one installation delivers year-round climate control without a separate heating system.
We're thrilled with AndosAir for our HVAC needs. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable. From consultation to installation, every step was seamless. Our new system not only keeps our home perfectly comfortable but the energy savings are noticeable. Highly recommend AndosAir for their expertise and outstanding service!
