Fujitsu Comfort Range 5.0kW Reverse Cycle Split System — Open-Plan Living Made Comfortable

Open-plan living is the hardest space to cool properly in a Queensland home, and 5.0kW is where most of them start. This unit is sized for combined kitchen, living and dining areas of roughly 45 to 50 square metres with standard ceilings, and it has the fan capacity to move air across the whole space rather than just the two metres in front of it.

Sizing notes for Brisbane homes

Step up to 6.0kW if your ceiling is raked, if glazing is extensive, if the area opens onto a stairwell or hallway, or if the space faces west. Undersizing an open-plan area is the most common and most expensive mistake we are called out to fix — the unit runs continuously at full load, never satisfies, and wears out early.
