Bulkhead Indoor Units: The Perfect Solution for Modern Living

Bulkhead indoor units are increasingly popular, especially in homes with low-set roofs and properties where minimizing overshadowing of neighboring buildings is a priority. Their slim, compact design makes them a versatile choice for a variety of spaces, particularly when paired with VRV systems.

Why Choose Bulkhead Units?

  • Space-Saving Design: Ideal for homes with limited ceiling height, bulkhead units offer a discreet and efficient cooling solution.
  • Versatility: We’ve installed these units in numerous homes and apartments, including spaces like kitchens with drop-down ceilings.
  • Custom Installation: For standalone systems (one indoor unit connected to one outdoor unit), we create custom enclosures using our CNC flatbed router. This ensures a precise, airtight seal, with openings only for supply and return air into the conditioned space.

Our Custom Installation Process

Our enclosures are crafted from flat black melamine-coated, water-resistant particle board, ensuring durability and a sleek, modern finish. Each installation includes a custom line bar grille, typically measuring between 1600mm to 2200mm in length and 210mm in height, matching the dimensions of the indoor unit.

Key Features of Bulkhead Units

  • Removable Grille: Designed for easy access to filters, simplifying maintenance.
  • Service-Friendly Design: In the event of an issue, the unit can be easily pumped down, unbolted, and slid out through the grille opening for servicing.
  • Seamless Integration: Bulkhead units can be installed above wardrobes or in voids, blending effortlessly into the room. The sleek, long grille provides a high-end, custom look with clean lines.
  • Custom Finishes: We can match the grille to your cabinetry material, ensuring the unit blends seamlessly into your interior design.

Additional Benefits

  • Individual Temperature Control: Enjoy personalized comfort with independent temperature settings for each room.
  • No Lost Cupboard Space: Unlike ducted systems, bulkhead units eliminate the need for ductwork, preserving valuable storage space.
