What console air conditioners are

Console air conditioners, also called floor-standing units, have the indoor unit installed low near the floor, usually under the window, exactly where you would normally put a radiator. They distribute air from the bottom upwards, which makes them perfect for winter heating and lets them blend in well in rooms where you don't want a unit mounted high on the wall. They run on an inverter heat pump, so they cool in summer and heat in winter.

Console mono and multisplit, which to choose

The console family covers two main configurations. With the console monosplit you connect a single indoor unit to a single outdoor motor, ideal for one room such as the living room or bedroom. With the multisplit system you connect several console indoor units to a single outdoor motor, a choice that reduces clutter when you want to air condition several rooms of the house.

When to choose the console over the wall unit

The console makes sense when you have little space high up on the walls, perhaps because of beams, high ceilings or large glazed areas, or when you are after better heating performance. By spreading warm air from the bottom, the console heats the room more evenly than a wall unit. If instead you prefer the classic high installation, you can consider wall air conditioners or specifically wall monosplits.

The advantages of the console over the wall unit

  • More effective heating, because warm air starts low and rises naturally.
  • Convenient position under the window, in place of the old radiator.
  • Easier maintenance and filter cleaning, since the unit is at arm's height.
  • Discreet look in rooms with free high walls or large glazed areas.

All the other types of indoor unit remain valid as well, such as the recessed solutions for the cassette monosplits.

How many BTU you need

The power is chosen based on the square metres and the insulation of the room. In the catalogue you mainly find these sizes:

  • 9000 BTU, for rooms up to about 25 m².
  • 12000 BTU, for rooms from 25 to 35 m².
  • 18000 BTU, for rooms from 35 to 50 m².
  • 21000 and 24000 BTU, for very large rooms and big floor areas.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a console air conditioner and a wall one?
The console has the indoor unit installed low near the floor, usually under the window like a radiator, while the wall model is installed high up. The console spreads air from the bottom and is more effective at heating, the wall unit remains the most widespread and discreet solution.
Is the console worthwhile for heating in winter?
Yes, it is one of its strong points. By spreading warm air from the bottom upwards, the console heats the room evenly and in many cases performs better than a wall unit, especially if you want to use the heat pump as your main heating.
Can I have a console in a multisplit configuration?
Yes. You can connect several console indoor units to a single outdoor motor with a multisplit system, so you air condition several rooms while reducing clutter outside. If instead you only need one room, the console monosplit is the simplest choice.
How many BTU do I need for my room?
For a well-insulated room of about 25 m², 9000 BTU is usually enough. For rooms from 25 to 35 m² you move up to 12000 BTU, while for large rooms or open spaces you need 18000 BTU or more.
Is the console easy to clean?
Yes, and this is a practical advantage. Being placed low at arm's height, filter cleaning and routine maintenance are more convenient than for a unit installed high on the wall.
Which console air conditioner brands are in the catalogue?
You'll find the leading manufacturers in the sector ready to ship, including Hisense, Daikin, TCL, Mitsubishi Electric, Midea, LG and Samsung, all with official warranty and spare parts available.
