What is the difference between a ceiling mounted ducted system and a bulkhead system?
Both are ceiling mounted systems, but fundamentally a bulkhead system is designed to provide air conditioning to a single room whereas a ducted system provides air conditioning to multiple rooms throughout a home or business.
A Daikin ducted system (such as the Inverter ducted, Premium Inverter ducted, and Slim-line ducted series) is designed to provide flexible duct-distributed air conditioning in multiple rooms, with the indoor unit being installed in a ceiling space.
In comparison, a Daikin bulkhead system (such as the Inverter Bulkhead) is designed for single room air conditioning with a minimal duct run and is best suited for installation in drop ceilings.
