18,000 BTU ACiQ Platinum Single Zone Floor Mount Mini Split Air Handler - R454B | 230V

Single Zone Comfort

ACIQ Floor Mounted air handlers are ideal for sun porches and attic rooms where space to mount a standard high wall unit is not available. Sometimes called a heat console type air handler, these units surface mount low on the wall, near or on the floor. The shape is wider, taller and slightly shallower than the high wall unit. These are ideal for sun porches where the only wall space is below windows, or attic remodels with knee-walls, where vertical high walls may not be available. The ACIQ-18FM-HH-MB and ACIQ-24FM-HH-MB creatively solve various installation issues. Unlevel Surfaces: The pitch of the roof is often reflected indoors as well, providing angled surfaces that make mounting traditional air handlers impossible. This system uses threaded rod to allow the air handler to be level, even when the walls are not. The threaded rod can be adjusted to accommodate all geometry angles, allowing the system to touch the ceiling or hang several feet below it Uninsulated Roofs: The cassette and concealed duct air handler systems want at least a foot of space between the ceiling and the roof, this unit can work with a gap as small as one inch, which is what you often see with metal buildings and 3 season rooms. The air handler will be located near the edge of the room, blowing towards the opposite edge of the room, which is different than a cassette system, that blows air in all directions and is located in the center of a room. Sun Rooms: The air handler is actually mounted directly to the wall, fitting perfectly under the windowsill, elevated about 2 inches from the floor, even thou this is referred to as a floor mounted air handler, there is no need to drill or modify the floor as all connections can go thru the wall. Perfect for rooms that are mostly windows, these units pull air from the bottom and blow the air upwards, allowing heating the room in winter and automatically shutting off when the large windows are opened during the summer with the optional door-open sensor. Floor Installation: The unit can be mounted to the floor when drilling holes into the wall is highly undesirable, as it common with brick/marble surfaces. The refrigerant/electrical/drain line can be run thru the floor and entirely hidden from view. The system is pre-wired for a 240vac condensate pump with over-flow shutoff connections. Note: The 18k and 24k are slightly different in appearance from the 12k, and can be surface mounted on the floor or ceiling. Please see the appropriate manual for your model.
