Benefits of floor standing air conditioning

  • Space-saving: Floor standing air conditioners are often semi-recessed into walls, so they take up less floor space than other models. They can also be installed inside an unused fireplace for a discreet, space-saving solution.
  • Air distribution: Compared to wall-mount air conditioners, floor standing air conditioners release air from the ground level, in line with natural air flow.
  • Easy access: A floor standing unit is easier to access for maintenance than ducted systems, ceiling or wall-mounted units.
  • Aesthetically discreet: Your floor standing air conditioner can fit under windows and in the corners of your room, which helps keep a low profile.

Floor standing vs wall mounted air conditioners

Floor standing and wall-mounted air conditioners are typically both split systems, consisting of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit.

However, there are some key practical differences between them:

Floor standing air conditioners

  • Good for rooms that have limited space for wall units (such as glass walls and low ceilings).
  • Can often handle heating and cooling large rooms with greater efficiency, thanks to their placement. 
  • Allows for greater flexibility with interior design (such as hanging pictures and artwork placement).
  • Can be less effective for climate control in small rooms, and may attract more dust.

Wall mounted air conditioners

  • May have lower upfront costs than floor standing air conditioners.
  • Can attract less dust than floor units.
  • Are more common and have more sizes and models available.
  • Require a suitable wall for installation, and may not heat and cool as evenly as floor units.
  • When choosing between floor and wall air conditioning units, you should always consider these points and your specific needs before making any choices.
