Finally, let's talk about cassette fan coil units. Cassette fan coil units are not common in home decoration. Cassette fan coil units are divided into three types: 1 way cassette, 2 way cassette, and 4 way cassette. These three type fancoils are relatively large for ceiling space, and 1 way cassette is slightly better. For 2 way and 4 way cassette, they must be installed in the middle of the ceiling. Because of the height of the machine itself, it has a high requirement for the ceiling, but it has the advantages of a wall-mounted unit and flexible air supply. The 1 way cassette unit combines the 2-way advantages of a wall-mounted unit and a duct fan coil unit, which is flexible in air supply and hidden inside. However, they are a bit unsuitable for home decoration, but more suitable for public places, such as shopping malls, hotel lobbies, airports, administrative office buildings, factory workshops, etc.
