Catering to the modern architects and interior designers’ demand for integration of AC units into interiors and Hitachi’s quest to deliver aesthetics uniqueness, the idea of Silent-Iconic 4-way cassette AC was born.

With this unique design, air conditioning blends completely into the ceiling surface and makes it the most suitable choice for integration into suspended ceilings. By its intrinsic visual quality, Silent-Iconic makes the perfect addition when included in exposed ceilings. The product is well suited for high ceilings as well.  The four flaps of the Silent-Iconic are crafted to reduce their visual impact yet maintain precise airflow control. To further minimise the appearance of the cassette, the central inlet of the unit is louvered, so it integrates perfectly into the ceiling. These innovative adjustments applied to the classic cassette means that air vents are now tastefully hidden and integrate seamlessly into the overall look and feel of the interior environment.
