Ductless Heating and Cooling
Ductless heating and cooling provides homeowners the chance to have the highest level of comfort for their home. These systems provide individualized comfort zones and cost savings.
Ductless systems are made up of an outdoor unit and indoor air handlers which heat or cool specific rooms within your home. They replace baseboard electric heating systems as well as window air conditioners and space heaters.
Customized Temperatures
Ductless systems provide homeowners with greater control over cooling and heating. They do not require ductwork, and can be put in within areas such as sunrooms or garages. Mini-split systems are extremely energy efficient and could reduce your utility bills.
They utilize an outdoor unit of a smaller size to generate heat by drawing it from the air outside, and then transfer the heat inside to keep you warm during winter. In summer, they switch to act as air conditioners by removing heat from the air inside your home. Ductless systems work more quietly than conventional systems. The air handling unit in the indoor space has filters built-in to improve the quality of your home’s air.
You can customize your temperature settings for each room with ductless heating and cooling, which is perfect for families who have different preferences. Each air handler for indoor use comes with its own thermostat, which allows you to adjust it according to your family’s needs and lifestyle. This flexibility lets every member of your family to enjoy their ideal home environment.
These systems are more energy-efficient than conventional furnaces and air conditioners because they don’t need to cool or heat your entire home in one go. They can save energy because they don’t need to be as efficient in order to maintain an ideal temperature.
The absence of ducts helps reduce energy losses, which further cuts down on your heating and cooling costs. Your ductless system will be even more efficient if you choose an efficient unit that makes use of environmentally friendly refrigeration.
In addition to their efficiency and cost, ductless systems are quieter and less difficult to install than conventional HVAC systems. They can be mounted on walls or ceilings and their compact design makes them less noticeable than ductwork. They can also be erected more easily in new construction or renovations than traditional systems. And with their easy-to-use smart controls, you can monitor your energy usage and adjust your settings remotely from computers or smartphones.
Energy Efficiency
Ductless systems feature a unique design that provides more energy efficiency than forced-air systems. These systems consist of an outdoor unit and one or more indoor air handlers. They are connected via flexible piping that carries electricity and coolant to create heat. The absence of ductwork reduces thermal leakage as well as other waste sources that are caused by duct systems which means that they are more efficient in energy use and cost savings. Moreover as these systems do not require combustible fuel for operation and produce no harmful emissions or carbon dioxide which makes them an environmentally friendly option for your home or business.
There is no need to sacrifice energy efficiency in order to achieve the desired temperature of air. For instance, you can cool the master bedroom down to an ideal temperature of 65 degrees without overcooling other rooms of the house, which conserves energy and keeps the whole family content.
The same goes for heating your home. You can set the basement, home office, or any other room with an air handler to a lower temperature for comfortable and consistent warmth throughout your home. You don’t need to worry about wasting energy when you leave a room for a few minutes, because you can turn on the heat with your remote.
If you’re cooling an extra room or heating a small apartment, the ductless system is an ideal way to cool and heat your home and save cash all year long. It can even replace an air conditioner that is portable and reduce your energy bills by providing both cooling and heating for your space.
A ductless system can also be a great replacement for space heaters, which will save you from having to juggle the use of multiple air conditioning units during the summer and space heaters during the winter. It also improves the indoor air quality and gives your space more sleek appearance. It’s not a surprise that ductless systems are becoming increasingly well-known.
Easy Installation
Mini-split ductless systems were designed to heat and cool areas without ductwork or in situations where the expense of installing ductwork is not included in a renovation or addition. A ductless system is perfect for sunrooms, remodeled rooms and basements. It’s also ideal for kiosks in offices or areas that are not in use. With a single-zone or multi-zone solution, each indoor unit has its own thermostat, making it possible to heat and cool only the rooms that are being used at any given time.
The installation of a air-conditioning and heating system that is ductless is a lot simpler and less costly than traditional HVAC systems since there is no need for ductwork. A licensed technician will install the outdoor unit on a concrete pad outside your home and connect it to the air handlers in your home. Installers will run conduits 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 house there may be multiple indoor units that be required to be set up to ensure maximum comfort.
Ductless systems are eco-friendly because of their high energy efficiency. They do not increase the amount of waste generated by a typical household, and they drastically reduce the carbon footprint of a home.
Ductless systems boast some of the highest SEER ratings available in the market and allow homeowners to enjoy substantial savings on their heating and cooling costs. In comparison to traditional split systems with SEER ratings of 14-17, today’s best efficient ductless systems can provide up to 50 percent savings on energy bills each month.
A ductless system requires minimal maintenance to operate at its peak. It is recommended to clean your air filters at least once a week, and we suggest regular professional maintenance. This will ensure that your ductless system is operating efficiently and effectively for years to come. A ductless system can last for up to 25+ years with proper care and maintenance. Our skilled technicians are ready to answer any questions you have about ductless heating or cooling.
Maintenance
Ductless systems can provide a range of benefits for maintenance that traditional HVAC equipment is not able to match. Energy efficiency is one of the advantages, since it reduces operating expenses and has a positive effect on the environment. The absence of ductwork also helps keep indoor air quality high. The ductwork of a home’s traditional HVAC system can be contaminated with dirt, grime and pet dander, bacteria, rodent droppings, and more. The ductless units, which are not visible, systems are easy to clean and maintain.
The installation of HVAC systems with ductless ducts is less expensive than traditional HVAC systems. This is because the installation of ductwork is labor intensive and costly, especially in older homes with uninsulated walls and ceilings. The non-invasive nature of the installation process that requires the installation of outdoor and indoor units, removes the need for this expense and can be completed in one day.
Comparing ductless HVAC with window-type systems, they are much quieter. The system’s smaller physical size contributes to this, along with their incredibly efficient operation. They also require much less maintenance, requiring only the occasional requirement to change the air filter, and an annual inspection.
Ductless heat pumps are also ideal for retrofits and new construction. They can be used to replace less efficient air conditioners, space heaters and radiant heating systems. They can also be used in apartments, condos, and mobile homes, where ductwork may not be practical.
