Light Commercial

A light commercial heat pump / air conditioner refers to a heating and cooling system specifically designed for small-scale commercial spaces. It is typically used in settings such as small office buildings, retail stores, restaurants, and other similar establishments. 

These heat pumps / air conditioners are compact, efficient, and versatile, capable of providing both heating and cooling functionalities to maintain a comfortable indoor environment throughout the year. They are specifically tailored to meet the unique demands and requirements of light commercial applications, offering reliable performance and energy efficiency.

Determining the appropriate size or capacity of a small office heat pump / air conditioner requires a professional load calculation. Various factors, including the size of the office space, insulation, number of occupants, and climate, need to be taken into consideration. Oversized or undersized heat pumps / air conditioners can mean the system is  inefficient in heating or cooling the desired space. 

It is recommended to contact a Fujitsu commercial stockist who can assess your specific requirements and provide you with the best-suited solution for your small office.

Commercial heat pumps / air conditioners can provide a number of benefits for businesses, including:

• Improved comfort for employees and customers: A light commercial heat pump / air conditioner is designed to efficiently heat and cool small to medium-sized commercial spaces. While it can effectively handle the heating and cooling needs of a small office or retail store, it may not be suitable for larger commercial buildings. However, by employing multiple light commercial heat pumps / air conditioners strategically throughout the larger space, it is possible to achieve improved comfort levels for both employees and customers.

• Energy effiency: Light commercial heat pumps / air conditioners are known for their energy efficiency. By utilising advanced technologies such as variable-speed compressors and smart controls, these systems optimise energy usage and minimise wastage. This can mean lower energy consumption, and reduced energy costs for the business over time.

• Increased productivity: Maintaining a comfortable indoor environment through effective heating and cooling is crucial for maximising employee productivity. Light commercial heat pumps / air conditioners provide consistent and precise temperature control, ensuring a pleasant workspace. By creating a comfortable atmosphere, these systems can contribute to enhanced productivity levels among employees.

• Improved air quality: Light commercial heat pumps / air conditioners are equipped with advanced air filtration systems that can help to improve indoor air quality. These systems efficiently remove dust, allergens, and other airborne particles. By providing a continuous supply of fresh, filtered air, light commercial heat pumps / air conditioners contribute to the well-being of employees and customers.

Light commercial heat pumps / air conditioners can be used for both new construction and retrofit applications. These systems are versatile and flexible, making them suitable for various scenarios. In new construction projects, light commercial heat pumps / air conditioners can be integrated into the HVAC system design, providing efficient heating and cooling from the start. For retrofit applications, these heat pumps / air conditioners can be installed in existing spaces to upgrade the heating and cooling capabilities, improving comfort and energy efficiency without the need for extensive modifications.
