Optimum Temperature Control With Fan Coil Unit Systems
Investing in the right HVAC system to create the perfect environment in your building doesn’t have to be complicated.
At Johnson Controls, our fan coil unit solutions are tailored to your unique building needs and specifications so you can maintain granular control over your building’s heating and cooling requirements.
Precise Temperature Control
Fan coil units can split your building into separate zones so that each building occupant can set their preferred temperature levels, leading to cost savings and increased comfort with precise and rapid control over the heating and cooling of specific rooms.
Energy-Efficient Cost Savings
Instead of wasting energy heating or cooling the whole building, fan coil units mean that you can localise your HVAC system to individual zones, helping to make your building more energy-efficient. Not only will this mean your business can help the UK meet its Net Zero goals, but you can directly benefit your bottom line by cutting overhead expenses.
Better Occupant Experience
Many fan coil units are designed for quiet operation, making them excellent choices for areas where occupant comfort is paramount, like offices and hotels. Alongside quiet, efficient operation, fan coil units from Johnson Controls also contain air filters that remove dust and allergens from the air, improving your building’s air quality and purification.
Flexible Design
The fan coil units in our portfolio come in a range of configurations, including exposed or concealed cabinets and the choice of either 2- or 4-pipe coils, so you can find a solution to fit your needs.

Choosing Your Fan Coil Unit
Here are the factors to consider when choosing the right system for your building.
- Versatility: FCUs come in vertical and horizontal orientations which can be installed in individual rooms or can serve larger spaces.
- Energy Efficiency: FCUs are energy-efficient because they allow for zoned cooling and heating. By controlling each unit independently, you can optimise comfort while minimising energy consumption.
- Quiet Operation: Modern FCUs are designed for quiet operation, making them suitable for spaces where noise reduction is essential. Whether it’s a hospital, an office, or a university, occupants appreciate the unobtrusive cooling and heating provided by FCUs.
- Customisation: Consider factors such as cooling capacity, airflow, and control options when choosing an FCU. High-performance units can handle demanding environments, while smaller units are ideal for individual rooms.
- Maintenance: Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and proper maintenance will extend the lifespan of your FCU system and prevent unexpected breakdowns.
Selecting the right FCU involves assessing your building’s layout, occupancy patterns, and cooling/heating demands. Please reach out to our HVAC experts using the form on this page for advice on the best FCU for your building.

Your Building Type And Layout
Different fan coil units are designed to provide optimal heating and cooling in different building layouts.
Vertical High-Rise Fan Coil Units:
- Ideal for Multi-Storey Buildings: If you’re constructing or retrofitting a high-rise building with multiple floors, vertical FCUs are an excellent choice. They can be installed discreetly in utility closets or mechanical rooms on each floor.
- Space-Saving: Vertical FCUs take up less floor space compared to horizontal units, making them suitable for buildings where space is at a premium.
- Efficient Cooling and Heating: These units efficiently distribute conditioned air throughout the building, ensuring consistent comfort for occupants.
Horizontal Low-Profile Fan Coil Units:
- Perfect for Smaller Buildings: In smaller buildings or rooms with low ceilings, horizontal FCUs are a practical solution. They can be mounted near the ceiling or even recessed into the ceiling itself.
- Discreet Appearance: Low-profile FCUs blend seamlessly with the room decor, providing unobtrusive air conditioning.
- Quality Air Distribution: These units deliver reliable cooling and heating performance, maintaining a comfortable environment.
Meeting Your HVAC Needs
Many fan coil units, like the versatile vertical high-performance fan coil unit, are particularly suited to a wide range of buildings, but it’s still important you choose the right specification for your HVAC needs.
Some fan coil units, like the vertical high rise and the horizontal low profile fan coil units, come in either 2- or 4-pipe configurations. In 2-pipe fan coil units, you can choose either heating or cooling settings for your building, whereas 4-pipe fan coil unit systems are capable of both heating and cooling, removing the need to change in between seasons.
