No Ductwork Needed
Ductless air conditioning is an excellent solution for homes that do not have ductwork in place or rooms that would be difficult to serve with traditional ducting. Unlike central AC systems, which rely on one unit in the attic and ducts to move air throughout the house, a ductless system utilizes individual indoor blower units connected to a single outdoor condenser. These units can be mounted on the walls or ceiling, providing flexibility for both aesthetic and practical.
In addition to being easier to install, a ductless system is more efficient. ENERGY STAR certified ductless systems can aid in saving energy by heating and cooling the rooms that are being used. This is a great method to reduce waste and maintain the perfect temperature in your home for all its inhabitants.
These systems are very easy to maintain. The compressor and evaporator units can be cleaned by simply washing the filters and using the defroster regularly. In addition regular maintenance by a trained technician will ensure that the system runs smoothly and effectively for as long as it is possible.
Many people choose ductless systems to supplement their central AC systems. They are a great way to add an extra room or convert a garage basement into a living space, or increase the temperature of a space that is often too hot or cold.
Another advantage of a ductless system is that they are more cost-effective than modern high-efficiency, high-efficiency duct systems. These systems can save you hundreds per year, thanks to the ENERGY STAR certification. These systems are also more efficient when paired with a heat-pump that cools and heats the home.

Energy efficient
The fact that ductless systems are more efficient than conventional heating and cooling systems is an important reason to consider them. These ENERGY STAR qualified systems are designed to decrease energy use and help you save money by proactively cooling the areas of your house that are occupied. These systems are perfect for homes with a new garage or addition, or rooms that are difficult to cool and heat with ductwork.
Ductless systems make use of alternating current electricity to power their equipment which converts it into direct current, which is then delivered to the individual air handlers inside your home. The air handlers use only a small amount of power to cool a home using ductwork because they do not have to perform as much work to regulate temperatures and move air. This allows for a greater SEER rating than a conventional AC unit that does not have a ductless system.
It only takes 3 inches to run the lines from an outdoor unit up to each indoor air handler. This is a lot smaller than the 12 inches of ducting utilized by a typical HVAC system.
Each air handler operates independently which means you can cool your bedrooms, while keeping the living room at a higher temperature. This can save energy because it’s not cooled. Each air handler has its own thermostat programmable which allows you to fine-tune the temperature to suit each family member’s preferences.
As the economy continues to recover Many people are considering building a gym in their home or bedroom home improvement. If you add a home gym, bedroom or another addition to your house the heating and air conditioning system may be overworked trying to regulate the temperature in another area of your home without ductwork. Installing a ductless mini split system in these areas will let you regulate the temperature on your own and stop your home from becoming overheated or cooled. This can lower your energy bills as well as your carbon footprint.
Easy to Install
Installing ductless air conditioners is simple, particularly if you are working with an HVAC company that is professional. They are typically mounted on the outside of a wall. The installer needs to drill a small hole in the drywall for the pipes. The ductless system is then joined to the house using clamps that secure the piping, and then fixed to the wall.
A single ductless unit is able to 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.
Certain ductless systems include multiple indoor units that are connected to the outdoor condenser unit and each unit comes with its own thermostat so the users can select the temperature they want in their particular room. This is a great method to get true cooling zoning in your home or office.
It is extremely useful to be able to regulate the temperature of each area of your house, especially when you have several members of your household who have different preferences for temperature. You can save money using a ductless system by cooling only rooms that are in use.

This can decrease the effectiveness of your system. This will aid in keeping your energy costs lower all year long. You can further minimize your energy usage by selecting an ENERGY STAR certified system. A ductless system that has an increased SEER will be more efficient and consume less energy.

You can maintain your bedroom and living space at different temperatures without having an impact on other rooms in your home.

A ductless system functions similar to a heat pump but without air ducts. The indoor unit, sometimes called an air handler blows air over evaporator coils filled with refrigerant. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the air and is then removed out through a small hole in your ceiling or wall. The air handler can be placed in a variety locations, such as in an attic, home addition, or garage.
Ductless mini-split systems can work as a stand-alone unit or combined to provide a whole-home cooling system. They are ideal for retrofitting or adding air conditioning to an existing house or renovations or new construction that don’t have the space or budget for air ducts. They are also a great choice for homes that have low ceilings such as an attic or garage.
A single-zone ductless unit is usually enough to cool a small home and connects only one indoor air handler to the outdoor unit. Multi-zone systems can connect up to eight indoor air handlers using the use of a single condenser. This lets you individually regulate the temperature in each room, which is especially suitable for homes with a large number of rooms.
