Choosing the Right Heat Pump: High Wall, Floor Console, or Ducted?

Choosing the right heat pump can make a significant difference in your home’s comfort and energy efficiency. With Mitsubishi Electric’s range of high wall, floor console, and ducted heat pump options, finding the ideal solution tailored to your needs is easier than ever.

High wall units are versatile and popular for their compact design, perfect for heating or cooling individual rooms with efficient airflow. Floor consoles offer a discreet heating solution, ideal for spaces where wall mounting isn’t practical. Ducted systems, on the other hand, provide whole-home comfort, distributing air through hidden ducts to maintain consistent temperatures throughout every room.

Determining the right type and size of heat pump depends on several factors, including your home’s layout, insulation, and your specific heating and cooling requirements. Our Mitsubishi Electric specialists are here to assist you in selecting the perfect heat pump system. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your current system or installing new, we’ll ensure you receive expert advice and personalized service every step of the way.

Insulation and building orientation significantly impact heat retention in homes. Older homes with inadequate insulation lose heat faster than modern, well-insulated homes, especially those facing north. The rate of heat loss dictates the size of the heat pump needed to maintain indoor comfort.

In winter, outdoor temperatures also affect heat pump performance. Colder regions in New Zealand require larger capacity heat pumps or advanced models like the Mitsubishi Electric HyperCore® Heat Pump to efficiently heat spaces compared to warmer regions. It’s crucial to avoid undersizing units, especially in low ambient conditions.

Eliminate guesswork with our sizing tool, which considers your region’s lowest winter temperatures to recommend the ideal heat pump. Take the next step and schedule your free in-home consultation through our convenient online form.
