The UK's Most Installed Air Conditioning Unit

A wall-mounted air conditioning unit — sometimes called a high-wall split or wall-hung unit — sits near the top of the wall and blows conditioned air horizontally across the room at ceiling height, where it falls gently as it cools. The unit's slim profile and white finish make it unobtrusive in most rooms, and the louvre angle is adjustable to direct airflow exactly where it is needed.

Modern wall-mounted units use R32 refrigerant and inverter-driven compressors to achieve energy efficiency ratings that were unimaginable a decade ago — delivering several times more cooling capacity than the electrical power they consume, depending on model and conditions. In heating mode the same technology can provide efficient warmth through winter, with running costs depending on the model, tariff, room heat loss and how the system is used. Most premium models include Wi-Fi connectivity as standard, allowing scheduling and control from a smartphone app.

  • High-wall position for even room coverage
  • Adjustable louvres for directed airflow
  • R32 refrigerant for high efficiency and low GWP
  • Wi-Fi control as standard on premium models

⚡

Very Efficient

Inverter compressors can deliver several times more heating or cooling capacity than the electricity they use, depending on the system and conditions.

🌡

Heats in Winter

Switch to heating mode and run all year — often more efficient than direct electric heating, depending on the model, tariff and room conditions.

📱

App Control

Control temperature, mode and schedule from your smartphone — at home or away.

💨

Air Filtration

Built-in filters can help capture airborne dust and particles as air circulates through the unit. Filtration capability varies by model.

🛠

Frequently Asked Questions

How high on the wall should the unit be mounted?

Wall-mounted units are typically installed approximately 200–300mm below the ceiling — high enough for effective air distribution but accessible for filter cleaning without a ladder. The exact position is confirmed during the survey based on the wall construction, window positions and pipe run route.

How noisy is a wall-mounted air conditioning unit?

Modern premium units can run very quietly at minimum speed. Indoor and outdoor noise levels vary by model, capacity, installation position and fan speed, so we confirm expected sound levels during specification.

What size wall-mounted unit do I need?

Unit size depends on the room dimensions, glazing area, insulation and the number of heat sources. As a rough guide, a 2.5kW unit suits rooms up to around 20m², a 3.5kW unit suits up to 30m², and a 5kW unit suits up to 45m². We calculate the precise requirement during the free survey.

Can I get a wall-mounted unit in a colour other than white?

Most units are white as standard. Some manufacturers offer alternative colours or finishes — Daikin, for example, offers certain models in silver or black. We can confirm colour options available for the model you choose during the survey.
