When summer arrives in Canterbury, it can transform our homes into heat traps. Long, dry days make it difficult to stay comfortable, and sleeping in hot, stuffy bedrooms is one of the biggest frustrations for families across Christchurch and beyond.
Most people are familiar with single-room solutions like wall-mounted heat pumps or portable fans. While these provide temporary relief, they rarely solve the bigger problem: keeping your whole home consistently cool. That’s where ducted air conditioning comes in.
At ATL Electrical, we specialise in helping homeowners create healthy, comfortable living environments. Right now, we’re making it easier than ever to upgrade with our limited-time Rinnai Pro Series Ducted Deal:
Rinnai Mid Static Slim Ducted Pro Series (9kW)
Standard installation in a 3-bedroom existing home with 5–6 outlets
From just $9,449 installed*
This exclusive promotion is available between October 2025 and February 2026 — the height of Canterbury’s hottest season. If you’ve been considering a smarter way to cool your home, this is the time to act.
Staying Comfortable in Canterbury Summers
Daytime temperatures often reach levels that make homes unbearable by mid-afternoon. Even as the sun sets, houses retain the day’s heat, creating long, uncomfortable nights.
Many households rely on fans, portable units, or a heat pump in the lounge. The problem? These options only cool one or two rooms, leaving the rest of the house sweltering. For families, that means bedrooms stay hot and sleep is disrupted. For those working from home, productivity can take a hit when the office or study becomes a sauna.
Ducted air conditioning changes this. By delivering even, controlled airflow to every room, you get a consistent, comfortable climate throughout your home. Instead of juggling multiple units or moving fans from room to room, one powerful, discreet system does it all.
And in a region like Canterbury, where summers are hot and winters are frosty, a ducted system doubles as a year-round solution — cooling in summer and efficient heating in winter.

What is Ducted Air Conditioning?
Ducted air conditioning is a whole-home climate system designed to keep every room at the right temperature. It consists of:
A central indoor unit (installed in the ceiling space)
An outdoor unit (similar to a traditional heat pump)
Discreet ceiling outlets that distribute air evenly throughout your home
Unlike wall-mounted heat pumps, ducted systems are hidden away. All you see are the slim, modern outlets that blend seamlessly into your ceilings.
The system allows you to set and forget — with one central control, you can cool the entire home at once or, with optional zoning, choose which rooms receive airflow.
For a standard 3-bedroom existing home in Canterbury, our Ducted Deal package includes installation with 5–6 outlets, designed to deliver optimal airflow and comfort for the entire household.
Introducing the Rinnai Pro Series Ducted System
Not all ducted systems are created equal. The Rinnai Pro Series Mid Static Slim Ducted (9kW) is designed specifically for New Zealand conditions, making it an ideal choice for Canterbury homes.
Built for New Zealand
From coastal air to dry inland winds, New Zealand’s environment can be tough on outdoor units. The Rinnai Pro Series addresses this with:
Stainless steel bolts for corrosion resistance
A case design that maximises water runoff
A hermetically sealed electrical box for added protection
These design features ensure that your system lasts longer and performs reliably, even in challenging Canterbury conditions.
Pro-Pel Coil Protection
Both the indoor and outdoor coils are treated with Rinnai’s Pro-Pel Coil Protection — a non-toxic, environmentally friendly coating that:
Resists corrosion and oxidation
Reduces bacteria growth
Improves heating efficiency at low temperatures by speeding up defrost cycles
This coating is particularly valuable in Canterbury’s variable climate, where systems are exposed to both summer heat and winter frosts.
Smart Wi-Fi Control
Gone are the days of simple remotes. The Rinnai Pro Series comes with Wi-Fi control via the NetHome Plus App. Features include:
Easy Bluetooth setup
Full control via smartphone, Alexa, or Google Home
Geolocation function that automatically switches the system on/off as you arrive or leave home
Whether you’re commuting back from the office or arriving from a weekend away, you can return to the perfect indoor temperature every time.
Active Clean Technology
At the end of each season, the system’s Active Clean cycle heats the evaporator to 56°C, killing bacteria and deeply purifying the unit. This ensures fresh, clean airflow and reduces allergens — a real benefit for families with asthma or allergy concerns.
Energy Efficiency Features
Eco Cool mode: Cuts energy use by up to 60% with one button.
Turbo mode: Quickly boosts power to reach your desired temperature faster.
Daily & weekly timers: Control comfort around your schedule.
Zoning compatibility: Works with systems like MyAir, Airtouch, and iZone to customise which rooms are cooled.
Together, these features make the Rinnai Pro Series not just a cooling solution, but a smart investment in energy efficiency and long-term comfort.

Benefits for Canterbury Homeowners
Whole-Home Comfort
Say goodbye to hot bedrooms, stuffy living rooms, and overheated home offices. Ducted air conditioning provides consistent cooling in every space, making your home livable throughout summer.
Discreet, Modern Design
Unlike wall-mounted heat pumps, ducted systems are concealed in the ceiling. The only visible parts are sleek, unobtrusive vents that blend into your décor.
Year-Round Use
One system, two solutions: cool in summer, warm in winter. This makes ducted air conditioning more versatile than standalone cooling options.
Energy Efficiency
With modes like Eco Cool and advanced zoning, you can tailor your energy use, ensuring you’re only paying for the comfort you need.
Built to Last
Canterbury’s mix of hot summers, frosty winters, and coastal conditions demand durability. The Rinnai Pro Series is engineered to handle it all, delivering peace of mind along with performance.
