What is a wall-mounted fan coil unit?

The wall-mounted fan coil is a terminal installed high up, like a classic split, but it has no dedicated outdoor unit: it is connected to the home's water-based system. An internal coil receives hot or cold water and a fan distributes it around the room, so the same unit heats in winter and cools in summer. It is the ideal solution when you want to replace old radiators with a more responsive and quieter terminal.

How it works with a heat pump and a boiler

The fan coil is fed by the water produced by the generator already in the home. Paired with a heat pump, it uses a single machine to heat and cool with contained running costs. Connected to a condensing boiler, it instead becomes a heating terminal faster than the traditional radiator, because it pushes warm air into the room rather than relying on natural convection alone.

The advantages over the radiator and the split

  • Heats and cools with a single terminal, unlike ordinary radiators.
  • Works at low temperature, the perfect condition for high-efficiency heat pumps.
  • Is quiet and adjustable across several fan speeds.
  • Mounts high on the wall, taking the same space as a split but without its own outdoor motor.

Which output to choose

A fan coil's output depends on the air flow, the water temperature and the square metres of the room. In small spaces a compact, low-output model is enough, while for living rooms and open-plan areas a larger size or several distributed units is preferable. For the recessed or ceiling version, consider a ducted terminal too; for the complete system, you will find everything among the fan coil units.

The best available brands

In the catalogue you will find the most reliable manufacturers in the hydronic sector, with official warranty and available spare parts: Aermec, Galletti, Climaveneta, Riello, Innova, IdealClima, Olimpia Splendid and Ferroli. Prices start at around €80 and reach the highest-performing solutions, for every budget.

Tax deduction and reduced VAT

Installing fan coils connected to a heat pump may qualify for tax incentives where applicable, such as reduced VAT for renovation work. The conditions depend on the type of work, so it is best to check the up-to-date requirements before purchase.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a wall-mounted fan coil and a split?
The split is connected to an outdoor unit that produces heat or cold directly, while the fan coil receives hot or cold water from the home's system, for example from a heat pump or a boiler. They look similar and are both installed high on the wall.
Can I connect the fan coil to my boiler?
Yes, the fan coil works with the hot water produced by a condensing boiler and heats the room more quickly than a traditional radiator, because it distributes warm air with the fan instead of relying on convection alone.
Does the wall-mounted fan coil also cool in summer?
Yes, when it is connected to a heat pump or a chiller that produces cold water, the same terminal cools in summer. It is one of its main advantages over ordinary radiators, which only heat.
Are fan coils quiet?
Yes, modern models offer several fan speeds and a very quiet night mode. At the lowest speed the noise is contained and suitable for bedrooms too.
Is an outdoor unit needed as with air conditioners?
The fan coil has no outdoor unit of its own: it connects to the water-based system already in the home. An outdoor unit may serve the generator, that is the heat pump, and not the individual wall-mounted terminal.
Can I get reduced VAT?
In many cases yes, when the installation is part of renovation work. The application of reduced VAT and tax deductions depends on the type of work and the documentation, so it is best to check the up-to-date requirements.
