04 / FIVE SYSTEMS
Cool fresh air for every room.
You can have cool fresh air flowing freely to every room in your home, just like a fresh breeze blowing in from the sea.
Coverage
Whole home
Climate
Hot, dry summer
Run cost
Extremely low
Air change
Continuous fresh
DUCTED EVAPORATIVE
The fan inside the cooling unit draws in warm outside air. As the air passes over water saturated pads it is cooled, then distributed through ducts to every room in your home.
- 01 — WHOLE HOUSE COOLING
No need to zone any rooms — cool fresh air flows to every room.
Evaporative cooling moves a large volume of fresh air through the whole home — there is no need for room-by-room zoning.
- 02 — CHEAP TO OPERATE
Extremely low running cost.
Running cost is a fraction of refrigerated cooling on hot days — a major saving when summer pushes the rest of the grid into peak pricing.
- 03 — FRESH CLEAN AIR
Circulates fresh, clean air rather than recirculating stale air.
The whole air mass in the home turns over every few minutes. No re-circulation, no stuffy rooms — open the windows; that is part of how the system works.
ADVANTAGES — 02 / 02
- 04 — PERFECT FOR ADELAIDE
Designed to suit the hot, dry Australian climate.
Evaporative cooling works best when the outside air is hot and dry — exactly the Adelaide summer profile.
- 05 — INSTALL
Roof-mounted, ducted to the ceiling.
A single unit sits on the roof. Insulated duct runs to vents in each ceiling. No outdoor compressor on a side wall.
- 06 — RIGHT-FIT
Not for every home.
Evaporative is the right answer in dry-summer climates and well-ventilated homes — not for sealed apartments, humid coastal pockets, or homes that need heating from the same system.

Straight answers to the questions Adelaide homeowners usually ask before choosing a system.
01Does evaporative cooling work well in Adelaide?
Yes, ducted evaporative cooling can work very well in Adelaide because it performs best in hot, dry conditions. It is less suitable in humid conditions or tightly sealed homes that cannot exhaust air properly.
02Is evaporative cooling cheaper to run than reverse cycle?
Generally yes. Evaporative systems use a fan and water to cool fresh outside air, so running costs are usually much lower than refrigerated cooling on suitable days.
03Does ducted evaporative cooling also heat?
No. Evaporative cooling is a cooling-only system. If you need heating and cooling from one system, ducted reverse cycle is usually the better option.
04Do windows need to be open with evaporative cooling?
Yes. Evaporative systems work by bringing fresh air in and pushing warm air out, so doors or windows need to be open enough for air to escape.
05Is evaporative cooling right for every Adelaide home?
No. It can be excellent for suitable homes but not ideal for apartments, humid pockets, homes that need year-round heating, or layouts that cannot ventilate effectively.
