Ductless Heating and Cooling
The ultimate in home comfort is possible with ductless heating and cooling. These systems offer individualized comfort zones, cost savings and more.
Ductless systems consist of an outdoor unit and indoor air handlers that heat and cool individual rooms within your home. They are a replacement for baseboard heating systems as well as window air conditioning systems and space heaters.
Customized Temperatures
Ductless systems are ideal for homeowners who require greater control over their heating and cooling. They don’t require ductwork in order to operate, and they can be used in places like garages, sunrooms and basements that would not be feasible with a conventional system. These mini-splits are highly energy efficient and can reduce your utility bills.
In winter, they utilize a small unit outside to generate heat and transfer it inside. In summer, they switch to act as air conditioners by taking heat from the air inside your home. Ductless systems are quieter than conventional systems and the air-handling units have built-in filters to improve your home’s indoor air quality.
With ductless heating, you can control the temperature in each space in a way that is individual. This is perfect for families that have different preferences. Each indoor air-handling system has its own thermostat that you can adjust according to the requirements and preferences of your family. This flexibility allows every member of your family to experience their ideal living environment.
They are more energy efficient than conventional furnaces and air conditioners since they don’t have to heat or cool your entire home at once. This is because they don’t have to be as active to maintain a consistent temperature, and also avoid wasting energy by not heating or cooling rooms that aren’t being used.
The absence of ducts helps reduce energy loss, which cuts down on the cost of cooling and heating. If you select an energy-efficient model that utilizes green refrigerants, your ductless system will be even more energy efficient.
In addition to their cost-effectiveness and ease of use, ductless systems are quieter and less difficult to install than traditional HVAC systems. They can be mounted on walls or ceilings and their compact design makes them less noticeable than ductwork. They’re also more easily installed in new construction or renovations than conventional systems could be. And with their easy-to-use smart controls, you can keep track of your energy consumption and alter your settings remotely using a smartphone or computer.
Energy Efficiency
Ductless systems feature a unique design that gives greater energy efficiency than forced-air systems. They consist of an outdoor unit as well as one or more indoor air handlers. They are connected by flexible piping which carries electricity and coolant to create heat. The absence of ductwork prevents thermal leakage as well as other sources of waste associated with duct systems, allowing for superior energy efficiency and cost savings. Additionally because these systems don’t require combustible fuel for operation they don’t generate harmful carbon dioxide emissions, making them green choices for your business or home.
There is no need to sacrifice energy efficiency in order to achieve your desired temperature of air. For instance, you can cool the master bedroom to a comfortable 65 degrees without overcooling other rooms in the house, which conserves energy and keeps the whole family content.
The same applies to heating your home. You can set your home office, basement or any other space with an air handler set at an appropriate temperature to guarantee an even and comfortable temperature throughout your home. And you don’t have to be concerned about wasting energy when you leave an area for a short time, as you can simply switch on the heating in the area with the remote control.
If you’re cooling an additional room or heating a smaller apartment, an ductless system can be a great way to cool and heat your space while saving cash all year long. It can be used to replace a portable AC unit and cut down on energy costs by providing cooling and heating.
A ductless system can be a fantastic alternative to space heaters, keeping you from having to manage the use of multiple air conditioning units in the summer and space heaters in the winter. It also improves the indoor air quality and gives your space a more streamlined appearance. When you consider all the advantages of a ductless system it’s no wonder why they’re becoming increasingly popular!
Easy Installation
Mini-split ductless systems are made to cool and heat spaces that do not have ductwork, or in locations in which the cost of ductwork installation is not included in a new or renovated addition. Ductless systems work well for rooms that have been renovated, such as homes, home additions, sunrooms, and even a renovated basement. It’s also great for kiosks at offices or in residential spaces that aren’t in use. With a multi-zone or single-zone solution, each indoor unit has its own thermostat, allowing it to heat and cool only the rooms being utilized at any given moment.
The installation of a HVAC system that is ductless is much simpler and less expensive than traditional HVAC systems because there is no ductwork required. A certified technician will install the outdoor unit outside your home on an asphalt 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 require multiple indoor units to achieve the best comfort.
Due to their energy efficiency Due to their energy efficiency, ductless systems are environmentally friendly. They don’t contribute to the waste generated by the average household, and they reduce carbon footprint by a significant amount.
Ductless systems offer some of the highest SEER ratings in the industry. This allows homeowners to save money on heating and cooling bills. Compared to traditional split system SEER ratings of 14-17, today’s highest efficient ductless systems can provide up to 50 percent savings on energy bills each month.
To keep it running at its peak, a ductless system only requires minimal maintenance. You’ll typically need to clean your air filters at least once a week, and we suggest regular professional maintenance. This will ensure that your ductless system functions efficiently and effectively for many long time to come. A ductless system can last for 25years or more with proper care and maintenance. Our technicians are available to answer any queries you may have regarding ductless heating and air conditioning.
Maintenance
Ductless systems provide many maintenance benefits that aren’t offered by traditional HVAC equipment. Energy efficiency is just one of the advantages, since it lowers operating costs and has a positive effect on the environment. The absence of ductwork allows to maintain high indoor air quality. The ductwork of a home’s traditional HVAC system could be contaminated by dirt and grime and pet dander, bacteria, rodent droppings, and more. The unnoticeable units of ductless systems are easy to clean and maintain.
Additionally the fact that ductless heating and cooling systems are less expensive to install than traditional HVACs. This is due to ductwork being labor-intensive, and installation could be costly, especially in older homes that do not have insulation ceilings and walls. The non-invasive nature of a ductless HVAC system’s installation process that requires the installation of both outdoor and indoor units eliminates this cost and can be completed in a single day.
Compared to window-type air conditioners, ductless HVAC systems are much quieter. This is due to the smaller size of the units and how efficient they are. They require less maintenance as well, with only a few air filters to be changed and an annual inspection.
Ductless heat pump systems are also a great option for retrofits or new construction. They can be used to replace less efficient space heaters, air conditioners and radiant heating systems. They can also be used in condos, apartments, and mobile homes, where ductwork isn’t practical.
