Ductless Heating and Cooling
The ultimate in home comfort is made possible by ductless heating and cooling. These systems offer individualized comfort zones as well as cost savings, and much more.
Ductless systems are comprised of an outdoor unit and indoor air handlers that heat or cool individual rooms in your home. They replace baseboard heating systems, window air conditioning and space heaters.
Customized Temperatures
Ductless systems provide homeowners with greater control over their heating and cooling. They don’t require ductwork to operate and can be installed in places like sunrooms, garages and basements that aren’t feasible with a conventional system. Mini-splits are also efficient in terms of energy consumption, and could help you save a lot of money on your electricity bills.
They make use of a small outdoor unit to generate heat by drawing it from the air outside, then transfer the heat to insides to keep you warm in winter. In summer, they change to act as air conditioners by taking heat from the air inside your home. Ductless systems work more quietly than conventional systems. The indoor air-handling unit comes with filters built-in that improve the quality of the air in your home.
You can customize your temperature settings on a room-by-room basis with ductless cooling and heating that is ideal for families who have different preferences. Each indoor air handling system comes with a thermostat that you can adjust in accordance with the needs and lifestyle of your family. This degree of personalization allows each member of your family to have their ideal living environment.
They are more energy efficient than conventional furnaces and air conditioners because they don’t need to heat or cool the entire house in one go. They are able to save energy since they don’t need to work as hard in order to maintain an ideal temperature.
The absence of ducts reduces energy consumption and reduces costs for cooling and heating. If you opt for a high-efficiency model that makes use of eco-friendly refrigerants, your ductless unit can be even more energy-efficient.
In addition to their efficiency and cost, ductless systems are more quiet and more simple to install than conventional HVAC systems. They can be hung on walls or ceilings and their compact design makes them less visible than ductwork. They can also be put in more easily in new construction or renovations than traditional systems. With their simple-to-use smart controls, you can track your energy usage and adjust your settings remotely from computers or smartphones.
Energy Efficiency
Ductless systems feature a unique design that offers more energy efficiency than forced air systems. These systems consist of an outdoor unit and one or more indoor air handlers. They are connected with flexible piping that transports electricity and coolant to create heat. The absence of ductwork decreases heat loss and waste that comes with duct systems. This translates into higher efficiency in energy and savings. These systems are also eco friendly because they don’t emit harmful emissions or produce carbon dioxide.
A ductless system can offer the comfort you need in a zone to satisfy your individual needs and needs, meaning you don’t have to sacrifice energy efficiency in order to achieve the temperature you desire. You can cool your master bedroom down to 65 degrees while not overcooling the other rooms. This conserves energy and makes everyone in the family happy.
The same applies to heating your house. You can set your basement, home office or any other room that has an air handler set at a moderate temperature to ensure the comfort of a consistent and comfortable heat throughout your home. You don’t need to worry about wasting electricity when you leave a space for a few minutes, since you can turn on the heat with your remote.
A ductless system can be used to cool or heat small apartments or an extra room. It will also allow you to save money throughout the year. It can be used to replace the portable AC unit and reduce your energy costs by providing cooling and heating.
A ductless system is a great replacement for space heaters. It will free you from having multiple air conditioners during summer and space heaters during the winter. Additionally, it gives a more streamlined look in your space and improves indoor air quality. It’s not a surprise that the ductless system is becoming more popular.
Easy Installation
Mini-split ductless systems are designed to cool and heat spaces without ductwork, or in locations in which the cost of installing ductwork is not included in a new or renovated addition. A ductless system is ideal for rooms that have been renovated, such as homes as well as sunrooms, home additions and even a renovated basement. It is also suitable for kiosks in offices and residential spaces that are not open during the day. Each indoor unit in a single-zone or multi-zone system comes with its individual thermostat. This lets you cool and heat the rooms that are in use at any time.
The installation of a air-conditioning and heating system that is ductless is a lot simpler and less costly than traditional HVAC systems because there is no need for ductwork. A licensed technician will place the outdoor unit outside of your home on a concrete pad and connect it to your air handlers. Installers will run a conduit to connect the indoor units to the outdoor unit. The outdoor unit houses the equipment, control wires and refrigerant. Based on the size of your home, you may need several indoor units to ensure the best comfort.
Because of their energy efficiency They are also environmentally friendly. They don’t add to the waste generated by the average household, and they reduce the carbon footprint by a significant amount.
Ductless systems have the highest SEER rating available in the industry. This lets homeowners save on their heating and cooling bills. Comparing to traditional split system SEER ratings of 14-17, today’s highest performing ductless systems can offer up to 50 percent savings on energy bills each month.
To ensure it is operating at its peak, a ductless system requires minimal maintenance. Typically, you’ll need to clean the air filters every month, and we suggest scheduling regular professional service. This will ensure your ductless system continues to operate effectively and efficiently for many years to be. In reality a ductless system could last up to 25 years with routine care and maintenance. Our technicians are ready to answer any questions you might have about ductless heating and air conditioning.
Maintenance
Ductless systems can provide a range of benefits for maintenance that traditional HVAC equipment can’t match. This includes energy efficiency, which contributes to lower operating costs as well as environmental impact. The absence of ductwork also ensures that indoor air quality remains high. The ductwork of a house’s traditional HVAC system can be contaminated by dirt grime bacteria, pet dander, rodent droppings, and more. By contrast the ductless units are easy to maintain and can be cleaned by a simple swipe of a clean cloth.
The installation of HVAC systems with ductless ducts is less expensive than traditional HVAC systems. It is because ductwork is labor-intensive and installation can be costly, especially in older homes that do not have insulation ceilings and walls. This cost can be eliminated by the non-invasive nature of the ductless HVAC installation procedure. It involves the installation of both indoor and outdoor units.
Comparing ductless HVAC to windows-style HVAC systems, they are much quieter. The system’s smaller physical dimensions contribute to this, as well as their extremely efficient operation. They also require much less maintenance, requiring only the occasional need to replace an air filter or conduct a yearly inspection.
Ductless heat pumps are also a good option for retrofits or new construction. They can replace less efficient air conditioners, space heaters and radiant heating systems. They can even be used in condominiums, apartments and mobile homes where ductwork might not be practical.
