Hello folks,

We are wanting to put in a ducted HVAC solution that can do zone control and fresh air ventilation integrated into the same system with a summer bypass, I have searched but cannot seem to find anything good out there that can also integrate into an home automation system with full control of zones as well where the zone can slow down or increase air flow automatically once the said room temperature has reached.

I have recieved 2 quotes for below systems. Fujitsu can have IR mounted on the wall controller and then maybe use something like Broadlink RM Pro but no zone control. The Mitsubishi will have a WiFi card in the ducted unit and can be controlled by voice by Alexa but looks like the integration is talking to both Mitsubishi and Amazon cloud and no open API.

Option 1 - Fujitsu ARTG54LHTC 14.0kw ducted system with option for introduced fresh air and zone control.

Fujitsu ARTG54LHTC $10,486+ GST
Introduced fresh air $1040+ GST
Zone control $1950+ GST


Option 2 - Mitsubishi Electric140 with option for lossnay system

Mitsubishi PEAD-RP140JAA $12,187+ GST
Lossnay fresh air $2745+ GST


Any opinions or recommendations?




Do whatever you want to do man.

Blog here from a Wellington guy that put in ducted heat pumps and has connected them to home assistant.

You can do it without their WiFi module if you want to build a module for it
