Far ceiling vs False ceiling

Question

HiWe use both 'far ceiling' and 'false ceiling' to refer to the same thing. Could you please give your take?https://www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=1jSsX53mNoajULfCl9AC&q=false+ceiling&oq=false+ceiling&gs_lcp=CgZwc3ktYWIQAzIICAAQsQMQyQMyBQgAELEDMgIIADICCAAyAggAMgIIADICCAAyAggAMgIIADICCAA6CwgAELEDEIMBEMkDOgIILjoLCC4QsQMQxwEQowI6CAguELEDEJMCOgUILhCxA1BPWL0PYLMQaABwAHgBgAHsA4gByRWSAQcyLTYuMS4ymAEAoAEBqgEHZ3dzLXdpeg&sclient=psy-ab&ved=0ahUKEwidqZDKlvvsAhWGERQKHTfhBSoQ4dUDCAc&uact=5https://www.google.com/search?ei=2TSsX7eaPKeF1fAP-uuXYA&q=far+ceiling&oq=far+ceiling&gs_lcp=CgZwc3ktYWIQAzIHCAAQsQMQQzIGCAAQBxAeMgYIABAHEB4yBggAEAcQHjIGCAAQBxAeMgYIABAHEB4yBggAEAcQHjIGCAAQBxAeMgYIABAHEB4yBggAEAcQHjoECAAQR1CiowFY3KYBYK-qAWgAcAJ4AIAB4QKIAeQIkgEFMi0zLjGYAQCgAQGqAQdnd3Mtd2l6yAEIwAEB&sclient=psy-ab&ved=0ahUKEwj36szLlvvsAhWnQhUIHfr1BQwQ4dUDCA0&uact=5Thanks,Tom

I've never heard of "far ceiling". Use "false ceiling".
