"Working with Rob and his boys was absolutely painless and the results were so much more than I hoped for. My studio needed a very awkward and demanding installation which he delivered and some."

What to Know

True silent HVAC requires specialist engineering. Here's what makes these systems different — and why they're worth the investment.

New Builds & Renovations Only

Silent HVAC must be integrated into the building fabric — ductwork runs hidden through ceilings and walls with vibration-isolated mounts. Only suitable for new builds or major renovations where walls and ceilings are being opened up.

Ducted Systems & Acoustic Dissipation

To achieve real silence, a ducted system is essential — not wall-mounted units. Air flows through acoustic-lined ductwork that absorbs sound, then passes through dissipation boxes that slow airflow and eliminate turbulence before delivery. The result: completely imperceptible climate control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about silent HVAC systems.

Yes — there are very good quality wall-mounted units that are affordable and much quieter than older systems. They won't be completely draft-free and sound-free like our ducted solutions, but they're good enough for less sensitive environments like bedrooms, offices, and living spaces.

True silent systems require integration into the building fabric — acoustic ductwork, diffusion boxes, and vibration isolation. This is typically only possible during new builds or major renovations. For existing buildings, we can recommend quieter alternatives.
