Abstract
A compact temperature control system is provided for use within a building. The temperature control system may be designed with a floor-saving design that causes a condenser unit (CU) and a fan coil unit (FCU) to be supported at or near the ceiling. The temperature control system may allow for multi-zone temperature control by connecting multiple FCUs to a CU.
Claims20
A temperature control system, configured to be installed within an installation region comprising a ceiling, said system comprising:
- at least one fan coil unit (FCU) configured to be suspended downward from the ceiling and located below the ceiling, said FCU comprising at least one fan;
- and
- at least one condenser unit (CU) configured to be suspended downward from the ceiling, said CU comprising at least a heat exchanger and a compressor, wherein said CU is coupled to the FCU with aid of at least one connector, and wherein said CU has a height smaller than 9 inches,
- wherein the at least one CU is configured to have a maximum capacity of 3 tons cooling or less, and wherein the temperature control system is configured to be deposited with a lower boundary of the temperature control system below the ceiling by less than 10 inches from the ceiling in its entirety, wherein an upper boundary of the installation region is below the ceiling and the entire temperature control system is located within the installation region.
