There is no need for ductwork

Ductless air conditioning is an excellent option for homes that do not have ductwork installed or for rooms that are difficult to serve with conventional ducting. In contrast to central AC systems that use one unit in the attic and ducts to circulate air throughout the home the ductless system makes use of individual indoor blower units connected to one outdoor condenser. They can be hung on the wall or ceiling and offer versatility in terms of aesthetics and functional.

In addition to being easier to install, a ductless system is more efficient. ENERGY STAR qualified ductless systems can aid in reducing your energy costs by heating and cooling the rooms that are in use. This is a great way to reduce the amount of energy consumption and keep your home at the ideal temperature for all occupants.

They are extremely simple to maintain. The compressor and evaporator units can be cleaned by cleaning the filters and running a defroster periodically. Additionally regular maintenance performed by a trained technician will ensure the system is running smoothly and efficiently for as long as it is possible.

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

A ductless system has the advantage of being more affordable than the latest high-efficiency ducted systems. These systems can save you hundreds per year with the energy STAR certification. These systems are more efficient when paired with a heating system, which heats and cools the house.

Energy Efficient

One of the primary advantages of ductless systems over conventional cooling and heating units is that they’re much more energy efficient. These ENERGY STAR-certified systems are designed to cut down on your energy consumption and save you money. They accomplish this by actively cooling the areas of your home which are not being used. This is ideal for homes with a new garage or an addition, or that have rooms that are difficult to cool and heat using ductwork.

Ductless systems use alternating current electricity to power their equipment, which converts it into direct current which is fed through individual air handlers within your home. The air handlers themselves run on a less power than what is needed to cool a whole home that has ductwork as they do not need to work as hard to move and regulate temperatures. This enables the system to achieve higher SEER ratings than an ordinary AC system that doesn’t have a dedicated ductless unit.

It only takes 3 inches to run the lines from an outdoor unit to an indoor air handler. This is a lot less than the 12 inches of ducting used by a standard HVAC system.

Each air handler is independent, so you can cool your bedrooms, while keeping the living area at an elevated temperature. This will save energy because it’s not cooled. Each air handler has its own programmable temperature control, which means you can fine-tune it to the preferences of each member of your family.

As the economy continues to improve Many people are thinking about the possibility of adding a gym to their home or bedroom home improvement. If you decide to do this, your existing heating and cooling system could be overworked by trying to regulate temperatures in an additional space of your home that is not served by ductwork. Installing a ductless mini split system in these areas will allow you to regulate the temperature on your own and stop your home from becoming overheated or cooled. This will aid in reducing your energy costs and also reduce your carbon footprint.

Easy to Install

Ductless air conditioners are easy to install, particularly when you work with an HVAC professional. They are typically mounted high on the wall of an exterior. The installer needs to drill a small opening in the wall to accommodate the pipe. The ductless system is attached to the home using clamps to secure the pipe.

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

Some ductless systems come with multiple indoor units that are connected to the outdoor condenser unit and each unit is equipped with its own thermostat so the users can select the temperature they prefer in their particular room. This is a great method to get true cooling zoning at your office or home.

Having the ability to regulate each room in your house is especially beneficial when you live with several people who each prefer different temperatures. You can save money with a ductless system by cooling only those rooms that are occupied.

Save Money

Ductless air conditioning systems are usually cheaper to run than traditional AC systems. They also avoid the potential energy loss caused by leaky ductwork, which could drastically reduce the efficiency of your system. This can aid in keeping your energy costs lower all throughout the year. You can further minimize your energy usage by selecting an ENERGY STAR qualified system. A ductless system with a higher SEER will be more efficient and use less energy.

A ductless system will also help you save money by offering comfort in zones. With a remote control, you can choose different temperature settings for each room of your home. You can maintain your living room and bedroom at different temperatures without impacting other rooms in your home. This feature is particularly useful when your pets or children spend most of their time in a single room.

A ductless system operates in the same way as a heat pump, just without air ducts. The indoor unit (also called an air handler) blows air through evaporator coils which are filled with refrigerant. The refrigerant sucks up heat from the air and is then ejected outside via a small gap in your ceiling or wall. The air handler can be installed in a variety of locations, including an attic, home addition, or garage.

Mini-split ductless systems can be used as standalone units, or in combination to provide cooling for the entire home. They’re perfect for retrofitting or adding air conditioning to an existing residence and also for new construction or renovations that don’t have the space or budget for air ducts. They are also a great choice for homes that have low ceilings like a garage or attic.

A single-zone ductless system is typically enough to cool small homes and connects one indoor air handler to the outdoor unit. Multi-zone systems connect up to 8 indoor air handlers to a single condenser. This lets you individually regulate the temperature in each room, which is especially beneficial for homes with large spaces.
