At Allen Air, we offer tailored commercial air conditioning solutions designed for efficiency, reliability, and seamless integration into your business operations. Here’s an overview of the key system types to help determine the best fit for your space:
- Single-Split Systems – Ideal for small businesses such as boutique shops, cafés, or individual offices. These units are compact, cost-effective, and straightforward to install.
- Multi-Split Systems – A versatile option for medium-sized spaces. A single outdoor unit connects to multiple indoor units, providing efficient cooling with a clean, minimal setup. Installation involves additional pipework, but the flexibility is a major advantage.
- Ducted Air Conditioning – A discreet and efficient solution for small commercial properties. Concealed ductwork distributes air evenly, while zone control allows for targeted heating or cooling—helping to reduce energy costs. Larger systems are also widely used in office environments to manage multiple spaces simultaneously.
- Packaged Air Conditioners – Commonly installed on shopping centre rooftops, these units deliver powerful cooling without disrupting business operations. They are ideal for environments where accessibility for maintenance is a concern, such as medical facilities and retail stores with high shelving.
- VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) / VRV (Variable Refrigerant Volume) Systems – Ideal for medium to large commercial buildings, VRF systems offer precise, energy- efficient climate control across multiple zones. A three-pipe VRF system enables simultaneous heating and cooling, while a two-pipe configuration provides cost-effective operation in either mode. At Allen Air, we install VRF and VRV systems tailored to the unique performance, efficiency, and aesthetic requirements of each space.

- Evaporative Coolers – A cost-efficient solution that supplies fresh, cool air. Best suited for dry climates, these systems are highly economical to operate, though they are less effective in humid conditions.
- Indirect Evaporative Coolers – The latest innovation in cooling technology. These units provide fresh, cool air without the added humidity of traditional evaporative coolers, offering a balance between reverse cycle and standard evaporative cooling.
- Ventilation systems – Effective ventilation is essential for maintaining indoor air quality, occupant comfort, and compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC) and the Building Code of Australia. In commercial spaces, ventilation systems must deliver a consistent supply of fresh, filtered air while safely removing stale or contaminated air. Allen Air installs fit-for-purpose ventilation systems, including high-capacity extraction systems and make-up air units, to support airflow balance and meet the specific requirements of each environment. From kitchens and hospitality venues to aged care and healthcare facilities, we ensure every system is installed to code, fully functional, and built for long-term performance.
