Ductless systems can be utilized in older homes as well as new additions that do not have ductwork. This type of air conditioning is energy-efficient and energy efficient.

No need for ductwork

Ductless air conditioning is a fantastic solution for homes that either don’t have existing ductwork or rooms that would be difficult to service by traditional ducting. Contrary to central AC systems that rely on a single unit in an attic, and ducts to circulate air throughout the house, a ductless system uses individual indoor blower units connected to one outdoor condenser. The units can be positioned on walls or the ceiling, providing flexibility for both aesthetic and functionality.

In addition to being simpler to install and maintain, a ductless system is an efficient choice. ENERGY STAR qualified ductless systems can assist you in reducing your energy bills by heating and cooling only the rooms that are being used. This is a great way to cut down on waste and keep your home at a perfect temperature for all occupants.

These systems are also very easy to maintain. You can easily clean the evaporator units as well as compressors by cleaning the filters and running defrosters on a regular basis. In addition, regular maintenance by a professional technician will ensure the system runs smoothly and effectively for as long as it is possible.

Many people choose to utilize ductless systems instead of their traditional central AC systems. They can be used to add an additional room or convert a garage or basement to living space, or to increase the temperature of a space that is often too cold or hot.

A ductless system has the advantage of being a lot more economical than the newer high-efficiency ducted systems. These systems can save you hundreds of dollars per year with the ENERGY STAR certification. These systems are even more efficient when combined with a heating system which cools and heats the house.

Energy efficient

One of the primary reasons to choose ductless systems over conventional cooling and heating units is that they’re much more efficient in energy use. These ENERGY STAR-qualified systems are designed to cut down on your energy usage and save you money. They accomplish this by actively cooling the areas of your house that are used. These systems are ideal for homes with an addition or new garage, or rooms that are hard to heat and cool using ductwork.

Ductless systems are powered by alternating current electricity, which is then converted into direct current and fed to the air handlers of your home. The air handlers use only a small amount of power to cool an entire home, as they don’t need to perform as much work to regulate temperatures and move air. This enables the system to attain higher SEER ratings than a conventional AC system that doesn’t have a air ductless unit.

It takes only 3 inches to connect the lines from the outdoor unit to an indoor air handler. This is smaller than the 12 inches of ducting used by a typical HVAC system.

Each air handler in your home operates independently of the others, which means you can cool the bedrooms, but leave the living space at a warmer temperature, and conserving energy by not cooling it. Each air handler comes with its own programmable temperature control, which means you can adjust it to the preferences of each family member.

Many people are considering adding a home gym or bedroom to their house as the economy continues to improve. If you are planning to add an exercise room, bedroom, or any other home improvement your heating and air conditioning system could be overwhelmed trying to regulate the temperature in a different area of your home without ductwork. A mini-split ductless system could be installed in these spaces to give you independent temperature control, and help your home avoid unnecessary heating or cooling. This will help you save on your energy bills as well as reduce your carbon footprint.

Easy to Install

Ductless air conditioners are easy to install, especially when you have a professional HVAC company. They are typically installed high on the wall of an exterior. The installer needs to drill a small opening in the wall to accommodate the piping. The ductless system will be joined to the home with clamps to hold the piping.

A single ductless unit can cool rooms to 400 square feet. If you have a large home with multiple stories, you might require more than one ductless unit in order to cool your entire home.

Some ductless systems have multiple indoor units connected to the outdoor unit. Each unit is equipped with its own thermostat, which means that the people in each room can choose the temperature they prefer. This is a great way to create a true cooling zone in your home or office.

It is extremely useful to be able to regulate the temperature of each area of your home, particularly when you have several family members who are accustomed to different temperatures. With the ductless air conditioning system it is possible to cool only the areas that are used and save money by not cooling empty rooms.

Our ductless maintenance manual will provide you with more information about how to maintain your system.

Save Money

Ductless AC systems are typically more affordable to run than traditional AC systems. They also reduce the risk of energy loss caused by leaky ductwork, which can greatly reduce the efficiency of your AC system. This will help keep your energy bills down throughout the year. You can cut down on energy consumption by choosing a system that is ENERGY STAR certified. A ductless system with a higher SEER rating will be more efficient, which means that it will use less energy to cool your home.

Another way that a ductless system can help you save money is by providing zones of comfort. By using a remote control you can choose different temperature settings for each room of your home. This allows you to keep bedrooms and living rooms at different temperatures, without affecting other rooms in your house. This feature is particularly beneficial if your children or pets spend the majority of their time in one room.

The ductless system functions similar to a heat pump, but without the air ducts. The indoor unit (also known as an air handler) blows air through evaporator coils that are filled with refrigerant. The refrigerant absorbs the heat from the air, then it’s removed outside through tiny holes in your wall or ceiling. The air handler can be installed in a variety of locations, including an attic, home addition, or garage.

Mini-splits with ductless technology can function as standalone units or combined to provide a whole-home cooling system. They are great to retrofit an existing house or adding air conditioning and for renovations or new construction where there’s no room or budget for air ducts. They’re also a great choice for homes with low ceilings like a converted attic or garage.

A single-zone ductless system is usually enough to cool a small dwelling, and it connects just one indoor air handler with the outdoor unit. Multi-zone systems can connect up to eight indoor air handlers using the use of a single condenser. This allows you to regulate the temperature of each room independently, which is particularly beneficial for homes with large spaces.
