Q: What is a cassette AC? How is it different from split or floor standing?
A: A cassette AC installs into a suspended ceiling. Only the grille is visible (like a light panel). It blows air in 4 directions, providing even cooling. Split units blow in one direction. Floor standing takes up floor space.
Q: Do I need a special ceiling for this?
A: Yes. You need a suspended (dropped) ceiling with at least 250mm (10 inches) of clearance above the tiles. Most offices, hotels, and banks in Nigeria have this.
Q: How large a space will this cool?
A: Effectively cools 60–90 square meters — that's a medium office floor, a hotel lobby, a bank hall, a restaurant dining area, or a conference room for 50-80 people.
Q: Can this work with my generator?
A: Yes. Minimum 8KVA generator recommended (10KVA preferred for stable startup). For inverter, use pure sine wave 9KVA or higher.
Q: Is installation complicated?
A: More complex than a wall split unit. Requires cutting ceiling tiles, running copper piping and drain lines, and electrical wiring. Kara Nigeria offers professional installation with certified technicians.
Q: What's the warranty?
A: 2 years on compressor + 1 year on parts + 1 year on installation (when done by Kara Nigeria).
Q: Can I control multiple cassette units together?
A: Yes. Midea offers centralized controllers for hotels and offices — manage all units from one panel.
Q: Does it come with both wired and wireless remotes?
A: Yes. Wired controller mounts on the wall (professional look). Wireless remote included for basic operation.
Q: What happens if the drain pump fails?
A: The unit has a float switch that shuts down the AC before water overflows — preventing ceiling damage.
Stop hiding your ACs. Start hiding your ACs. (In the ceiling.)
