Ceiling mount fan coil search…

[G and J]

We need a fan coil, in our bedroom.   It was always part of the plan, so we have ‘lecky and pipes laid ready, but I can’t find one.   I know that sounds dumb and maybe I am missing something obvious.

 

But I can’t find one.  So I need help.

 

The brief: a 2 pipe fan coil which can be hung from a ceiling.  Needs to be less than a meter wide.  

 

I identified the Myson iVector 2, which may have been perfect, but that’s not available, and they can’t even predict when it will be.  And I simply can’t find an alternative.  Help!

Cool Energy do them. Panasonic and Daikin maybe, pretty similar to the Myson iVector 2. Have a look at Orion Air sales also they do a range of them.

hung from a ceiling- are you doing cooling and have you got a condensate drain?

[G and J]

Yes, hung from a ceiling; to do cooling and no condensate drain, plan to run above dew point

This unit would need to be able to run independently, so plan the controls well, and manage your expectations of efficiency and ‘short-cycling’ even better.

 

These things should have been ‘on the M&E menu’ at day dot tbh.

It was, and I identified the unit I intended to buy.  Just not available.  Sigh.  I’ll get there.

Respectfully, you need to include a contingent, when planning a home for life.

Explore early, discuss in advance, resolve, progress.

 

Zero reason to fail if you prepare afaic.

I know who is to blame.  Little, round, bald guy with a dodgy sense of humour.  He got lumbered with the labels of Principal Designer and Principal Contractor but his real talent was as Head of Global Operations for On Site Catering and Sweeping. 
 

Humph.  One tries….

If you think Welsh Nick is going to replace me as tea boy and cleaner you’ve got another thing coming.  I’ve got a talent and I’m going to use it!  
 

One lump or two?

Brilliant. Thank you.  
 

I have googled and googled fan coils, fan convectors, hydronic terminals, heat pump convectors, and many other combinations and not seen them. 
 

I've had a look at their website, and it appears exactly what we need.  I’ve had the same conversation repeatedly, and been met with confusion when I’ve tried to explain what we are trying to do.  These guys appear to have already got it. 
 

@nikotime who are you getting a quote from?
