Underfloor Fan Coil Units

Ability underfloor fan coil units make intelligent use of raised access floor voids, providing effective heating and cooling without placing equipment at ceiling or wall level. Compact configurations and flexible technology options allow solutions to be selected around the available floor space and project performance requirements.

Unlock Potential from the Floor Void

Underfloor fan coil units provide an alternative where ceiling space needs to remain clear or where the raised access floor forms part of the building services strategy. Ability draws on its EVO and Matrix technologies to provide compact FCU options for underfloor installation, with different depths, widths and configurations available to respond to project requirements.

Make better use of floor voids

Compact fan coil configurations can be installed beneath raised access floors, keeping heating and cooling equipment away from walls and ceilings.

Greater design freedom

Underfloor installation can support spaces where ceiling services need to be minimised or where architectural and interior design requirements influence equipment positioning.

Support for glazed areas

Underfloor FCUs can be positioned around building perimeters to help address solar gain associated with large glazed areas.

Ready for lower temperatures

Ability can configure underfloor FCUs with redesigned coils to work with low-temperature hot water from heat pump systems.

EVO Underfloor

Compact EVO fan coil units can be installed beneath raised access floors, with depths ranging from 155 mm to 270 mm and multiple width options. EC motors, optimised coils and configurable filter options provide flexibility around available space and project performance requirements.

Matrix Underfloor

Matrix combines a configurable horizontal chassis with independently controlled EC/DC fans and individual supply plenums. Used underfloor, the technology provides precise airflow control at individual grilles while its self-balancing capability can help reduce the commissioning required on site.

Greater confidence before the system reaches site.

Test performance in the proposed arrangement

Ability can recreate relevant elements of the proposed underfloor installation at its testing facility in Poole, using client drawings to replicate ductwork layouts, grille positions and other system elements. Acoustic, airflow and thermal testing can then help validate the selected FCU and system design before installation and commissioning. Following testing, clients receive documented results alongside photographs, layout drawings and calibration certificates.

Discreet comfort when floor space becomes the solution.

Where Underfloor works best

Underfloor FCUs are particularly suited to commercial buildings with raised access floors, including projects where limited ceiling space, interior design requirements or large areas of glazing influence how heating and cooling services are integrated.
