Everything you need to know about ducted air conditioning — how the systems work, what they cost to install and run, and how ducted compares with a split system.
Start here — how a ducted system cools a whole house from one unit, where it suits, and what to weigh up before committing to one.
Inside the system — the indoor fan coil, the ductwork and zoning, and how conditioned air actually reaches each room.
How zoning splits a ducted system into separately controlled areas — how the dampers work, what it adds to the cost, and when it is worth doing.
What ducted costs in Brisbane and why the range is so wide — house size, zoning, capacity and the installation factors that move the number.
The comparison most people need before deciding — how the two stack up on running costs, coverage, installation and long-term flexibility.
