Las Vegas – September 11, 2026 -- TOSOT has expanded its light commercial HVAC lineup with three new indoor unit configurations -- Floor/Ceiling, Concealed Ducted, and Ceiling Cassette -- under the Aoraki Light Commercial Series, giving contractors added installation flexibility across retail, restaurant, and office projects.
New systems target different installation constraints across commercial spaces
The Aoraki lineup is ENERGY STAR certified and rated for cooling up to 140°F and heating down to -40°F. All three configurations use R32 refrigerant and share low-voltage startup, anti-freeze protection, and intelligent defrost features. Select models reach efficiency ratings up to 24 SEER2.
Floor/Ceiling unit supports installation heights up to 82 feet
The Floor/Ceiling system allows contractors to mount the same indoor unit low on a wall or suspended from the ceiling. Available in 18K and 24K BTU configurations, it supports indoor-to-outdoor height differences of up to 82 ft, addressing retail stores and showrooms with limited wall space or large windows.
Concealed Ducted model offers static pressure up to 200 Pa
The Concealed Ducted system installs above ceilings or within service areas for restaurants, offices, and renovation projects. The 18K and 24K BTU models provide adjustable external static pressure up to 200 Pa and support piping lengths up to 131.2 ft.
Ceiling Cassette spans 9K to 24K BTU with built-in condensate pump
The Ceiling Cassette configuration distributes airflow in multiple directions for larger shared spaces including restaurants, retail stores, offices, and studios. The lineup ranges from 9K to 24K BTU, reaches efficiency ratings up to 24 SEER2, and includes a built-in condensate pump.
Perry C., Product Developer at TOSOT, said commercial spaces are rarely designed the same way, so offering multiple installation formats lets contractors match the system to the project rather than the layout.
The Aoraki Light Commercial Series becomes available for purchase in early September 2026 on TOSOTDirect.com.
