Has anyone had experience with aircon splits in Kitchen areas.

Customer has a hood extract and tempered supply air ducted system, which works fine in itself, but there is no cooling on the system and the kitchen gets very hot. Adding some cooling to the AHU is a possibility but what’s wanted is to add two 10kW splits, without all that cool air racing straight up the hood before the caterers get some benefit.

There is the Mitsi 7kW under-ceiling unit model PCA-RP-HAQ, which is a stainless steel jobbie, intended for kitchens and designed for easy/thorough maintenance/cleaning, but they only have the 7kW size -- nothing larger – and are quite costly (especially as they would require 3x systems instead of two). But three of those is option-A. Anyone maintained/worked on these units? Any comments tips etc?

Option-B is the more regular 10kW wall-mounts, that could be stripped down during regular thorough maintenance visits. Wall-mounts seem better for deep cleaning than cassettes or u/ceiling units – comments? And I understand the MitsH wall units are not so friendly for this kind of deep cleaning – any other tips or good suggestions (Mitse/Daikin/Pana/Fujitsu)?
