Cassette Air Conditioners

What is a Cassette Air Conditioner?

Ceiling cassette air conditioners are a smart and stylish solution for heating and cooling your home.

Commonly seen in offices and retail spaces, these systems are now gaining traction in Australian households thanks to their sleek design and powerful performance.

Installed flush with the ceiling, only the subtle grille is visible, making them a perfect fit for contemporary interiors. They feature an indoor unit (typically a reverse cycle system) paired with an outdoor condenser. Centrally located in the room, cassette air conditioners deliver 360-degree airflow, promoting even temperature control no matter the season.

At Metropolitan Heating and Cooling, our licensed heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) professionals are skilled in the installation, repair, and maintenance of all cassette air con brands.

Whether you're upgrading a single room, outfitting the whole home, or need urgent repairs on your outdoor unit, we’ve got you covered. We’ll ensure your system operates efficiently so you can relax in year-round comfort.

Benefits of Using a Cassette Air Conditioner

Ceiling cassette air conditioners deliver the versatility of split systems with added benefits that enhance both comfort and style in your home.

Here’s what makes them a standout choice:

• Reliable all-season climate control: These reverse cycle units provide efficient heating in winter and cooling in summer, giving you complete comfort all year round.
• Even air circulation: Thanks to 360° airflow from the central ceiling position, every part of the room stays consistently comfortable.
• Minimalist ceiling profile: With just the air grille on display, cassette systems offer a clean, contemporary finish that won’t interfere with your interior design.
• More usable space: By staying off your walls and floors, they leave more room for furniture placement and decorative freedom.
• Easy operation: Their controls are similar to traditional systems, so you’ll enjoy a smooth and simple user experience.
• Smart home-ready: Select models offer Wi-Fi connectivity, so you can manage your indoor climate directly from your phone.
