Product overview
ACiQ 12,000 BTU Concealed Duct Mini Split Air Handler (R410A) - ACIQ-12CD-HH-MB
Summary
The ACiQ Concealed Duct air handler gives you all the advantages of a multi zone mini split without any visible air handlers on your walls or ceilings. These flexible units are designed to be concealed above the ceiling, below the floor, above a closet ceiling, above a hallway ceiling, or behind a soffit. You run flex ducting from the concealed duct air handler to ceiling or wall registers in your desired location.
Depending on the capacity of the unit, up to 4 flex duct runs can be connected, perfect for a pair of small bedrooms or a master suite. The design is extremely simple - return air is brought in at the rear of the unit and supply (cooled or heated) air is pushed out the front by an almost-silent squirrel cage fan.
