What is good
- Concealed in the ceiling, so only discreet grilles are visible in the room

- Can be one zone on a Daikin multi-split alongside visible wall or console units
- Optional Wi-Fi control via adapter and the Onecta app
What to watch

- Lower SEER/SCOP than the wall-mounted Perfera range
- Higher minimum indoor noise (around 30 dB(A)) than slim wall units
Installation & the rules that apply
This is a multi-split. Same F-gas certified-installer requirement and sub-750 GWP refrigerant rule as a single split, applied across a bigger system. Because it touches multiple rooms and routes pipes through the structure, it more often triggers planning or prior-declaration steps, freeholder, landlord or condominium and shared-wall consent, and neighbour distance and noise rules. Heritage and historic-centre restrictions apply to the outdoor unit just as for a single split, but the single shared condenser is often easier to get approved than several separate units.
