What is a Bulkhead Air Conditioner?
A bulkhead air conditioner is a wall-mounted unit that is installed within a compact wall cavity, also known as a bulkhead. These units are commonly installed in apartment buildings, hotels, and homes where ceiling space is limited or inaccessible. Bulkhead air conditioners have different features, including a quiet operation, energy efficiency, and a sleek design compared to other types of AC units.

Space Efficiency – Bulkhead air conditioners are an ideal choice for properties with limited or no roof space, as they fit perfectly into wall cavities.
Aesthetics – Due to their sleek design, these air conditioners effortlessly blend in with the interiors of your home or office, providing a seamless aesthetic.
Energy Efficiency – Bulkhead air conditioners offer excellent energy efficiency, helping lower your electricity expenses while maintaining optimal cooling or heating.
Quiet Operation – These AC units operate quietly, causing minimal disturbance, making them suitable for bedrooms and workplaces.
Easy Maintenance – The design of bulkhead air conditioners facilitates easy access for cleaning and maintenance.
Effective Cooling – Despite their compact size, bulkhead air conditioners can effectively cool large areas, providing comfort even in large open-plan areas.
The Process of Bulkhead Air Conditioner Installation
The process of installing a bulkhead air conditioner is methodical and requires professional expertise provided by our Arctic Blue team. Here’s an overview:
Assessment – The first step involves an evaluation of the properties design to determine the best location for the AC unit. Factors such as room size, wall space, and access to electricity are taken into account.
Installation Preparation – Before the actual installation, the area is prepped; this involves creating an opening in the wall, ensuring there is adequate support for the unit, and setting up the required electrical connections.
Unit Placement and Fitting – The AC unit is then placed into the cavity and secured with the necessary fasteners. It’s crucial to ensure the unit is level for efficient functioning.
Electrical Connection – The unit is then connected to the power source, following all safety regulations to avoid any electrical hazards.
Testing – Once everything is in place, the unit is turned on and tested to ensure it’s operating correctly. This includes checking that all controls and features are functioning and that the unit is cooling the area effectively.
Cleanup and Final Inspection – Finally, once the installation is complete, the area is cleaned up, and a final inspection is performed to ensure the job has been executed perfectly.
They’re not only energy-efficient and stylish but also great when it comes to cooling & heating. But remember, like all good things, they need a bit of TLC with the right installation and regular care. That’s where we at Arctic Blue Air Conditioning come in.
