About the FDE100VH
The Mitsubishi Heavy Industries FDE100VH is a high-performance 10.0kW ceiling-suspended indoor unit, perfect for commercial spaces like shops, offices, and restaurants, especially those without a false ceiling. Its slim 250mm high chassis and modern aesthetic allow it to blend seamlessly into the room.
Engineered for outstanding energy efficiency, this unit uses advanced inverter technology and a DC fan motor to reduce running costs. It operates with R32 refrigerant, a more environmentally friendly option with a lower Global Warming Potential. Despite its powerful airflow of up to 26 m³/min, it maintains a quiet operating noise level, with sound pressure as low as 34 dB(A).
Installation flexibility is a key feature, with refrigerant piping possible from the top, rear, or right, and a dual-sided drain connection. The system is compatible with a range of advanced wired and infrared controllers for complete climate management.
Important: This is an indoor unit and must be paired with a compatible Mitsubishi Heavy Industries outdoor unit. Installation must be carried out by a certified F-Gas engineer to comply with UK regulations and validate the warranty.

Frequently asked questions
What type of spaces is the FDE100VH suitable for?
The FDE100VH is designed for commercial environments like offices, shops, restaurants, and gyms, especially where there isn't a false or suspended ceiling available for a cassette unit.
Is this a complete air conditioning system?
No, the FDE100VH is an indoor unit only. It must be paired with a compatible Mitsubishi Heavy Industries outdoor unit and a controller to function as a complete system.
What refrigerant does this unit use?
The FDE100VH operates on R32 refrigerant, which has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) compared to older refrigerants like R410A, making it a more environmentally responsible choice.
Can I install this unit myself?
No. In the UK, it is a legal requirement that any air conditioning system containing fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gases) like R32 must be installed by a qualified and F-Gas certified engineer.
