ARCOAIRE floor-ceiling unit · Updated October 29, 2026

On the floor or the ceiling: one unit for a large open space.

The manufacturer prints a 39 ft (12 m) air throw for the 48,000 and the 58,000. Pick the size and the room length: you see whether the jet reaches the far end, and the maximum heat listed by NEEP at -15 °C.

01 · The size

Which size, and how far does the air carry?

Heat comes from NEEP; the air throw from the manufacturer’s 2024 catalogue (p. 63).

03 · The outdoor unit

A dedicated DLCLRC outdoor unit, heating printed down to -30 °C.

Each floor-ceiling unit connects to its own DLCLRC outdoor unit of the same size, never to a multi-zone outdoor unit.

Catalogue DLS-001-AR-01, p. 53 (outdoor unit) and p. 63 (pairing). For the 58,000, the suction line is printed 7/8 in on the outdoor side (p. 53) and 5/8 in on the indoor side (p. 63): we confirm it at the visit. In NEEP, the coldest point listed for these three systems is -13 °F (-25 °C): that is the value shown in the tool. For the 48,000 and the 58,000, the catalogue (p. 55) prints 28,000 and 30,000 BTU/h maximum at -15 °C, below NEEP’s 35,000 and 34,400: we show NEEP.

Did you know

Three details of the floor-ceiling unit, as the manufacturer prints them.

39 ft

The 48,000 and the 58,000 throw air 39 ft.

That is the throw the manufacturer prints; the 36,000 reaches 33 ft (10 m).

Catalogue DLS-001-AR-01, 03/2024, p. 63
9.25 in

Only 9.25 in thick, whatever the size.

All three are the same 235 mm thick (the manufacturer’s H dimension); only the width changes, from 50.59 to 64.96 in.

Catalogue DLS-001-AR-01, 03/2024, p. 63
“L”

The L in DLFLFA stands for “light commercial”.

In the manufacturer’s code, the 4th letter gives the series: L for Light Commercial. These units come from the light-commercial range, installed here in homes and shops.

04 · Questions

What people ask us about floor-ceiling units.

Floor or ceiling: what difference does it make?

The manufacturer allows both for the same unit. On the ceiling it frees the floor; on the floor it sits under a window. We choose from the room and the line-set route, at the visit.

Can it connect to a multi-zone outdoor unit?

No. The catalogue pairs it only with the DLCLRC outdoor unit of the same size: 36 with 36, 48 with 48, 58 with 58.

Does it need a condensate pump?

The catalogue mentions no built-in pump for this unit; the drain is 1 in. If the water cannot drain by gravity, we include a pump in the quote.

Is it loud?

The manufacturer prints 43 to 54 dB(A) for the 36,000, 52 to 57 for the 48,000 and 46 to 55 for the 58,000, from low to high fan speed. It is a unit for a large volume: it blows harder than a bedroom wall head.

What about LogisVert?

Only the 48,000 carries one on our sheets: $3,480, indicative. It is the only one of the three that is ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified. Only Hydro-Québec confirms the amount granted.

How do you choose the size?

At the visit: floor area, ceiling height, windows, insulation and how the room is used. The air throw then helps place the unit so the jet covers the room.
