About bulkhead air conditioning

## Bulkhead air conditioning for Brisbane homes

A bulkhead unit is a type of air conditioner that is concealed in a purpose-built bulkhead, a boxed-in section of ceiling. The equipment is hidden, and air is delivered through a slim outlet.

Because the unit sits inside the architecture, the bulkhead has to be planned early. We work with your builder or designer on its position and size, so it is built in at the right time and the room keeps its clean lines.

Our own licensed team installs and commissions every bulkhead system, and we can look after it afterwards with maintenance, fault-finding and deep cleaning.

- It is an air conditioning unit concealed in a boxed-in section of ceiling, with the air delivered through a slim outlet. Only the outlet is visible in the room.
- As early as possible. The bulkhead is part of the build, so it is best planned with your builder or designer before the ceiling is finished.
- A bulkhead unit usually serves a single space, while a ducted system serves the whole home through ductwork. We can talk you through which suits your home.
- Often, depending on the ceiling and the space available. We assess the home and tell you what is possible.
- Locally, yes. The boxed-in section sits below the main ceiling, so it is usually placed where it can run along a wall or edge of the room, and we plan its size and position to keep the room feeling balanced.
- Yes, but access needs to be planned in from the start. We make sure the unit can be reached for maintenance, and we can look after it afterwards.
