Ductless Heating and Cooling
The ultimate in home comfort is made possible by ductless heating and cooling. These systems can be customized to provide comfort zones with cost savings and more.
Ductless systems are comprised of an outdoor unit as well as indoor air handlers that heat and cool the rooms of your home. They replace baseboard heating systems, window air conditioning and space heaters.
Customized Temperatures
Ductless systems provide homeowners with greater control over heating and cooling. They don’t require ductwork in order to operate, and they can be used in places such as garages, sunrooms, and basements that would not be feasible with a conventional system. These mini-split systems are also extremely energy efficient and could help you save money on your utility bills.
They use an outdoor unit that is small to generate heat by drawing air outside, then transfer that heat indoors to keep you warm during winter. In the summer, they function as air conditioners, and remove heat from the air in your home. Ductless systems operate more quietly than conventional systems. The indoor air-handling unit comes with filters built-in that enhance the quality of your home’s air.
You can alter your temperature settings on a room-by-room basis with ductless cooling and heating, which is perfect for families who have different preferences. Each indoor air handling system comes with its own thermostat that you can adjust according to the needs and preferences of your family. This level of personalization means that everyone in your family can enjoy their ideal living space.
Since these systems aren’t forced to cool and heat your entire home at once They’re also more energy efficient than conventional air conditioners and furnaces. This is due to the fact that they don’t need to work as hard to maintain a perfect temperature, and they can save energy by not cooling or heating rooms that aren’t being used.
The absence of ducts can reduce energy consumption and reduces cooling and heating bills. Your ductless system will be even more efficient if you select the most efficient model that utilizes environmentally friendly refrigeration.
Ductless systems are more affordable and more convenient than traditional HVAC systems. They are also more quiet and easier for installers to install. They can be installed on ceilings and walls and their smaller size makes them less obtrusive than ductwork. They’re also easier to install in new construction homes or renovations than conventional systems could be. With their simple to use smart controls you’ll be able track your energy consumption and adjust your settings remotely from your smartphone or computer.
Energy Efficiency
Ductless systems are unique in their design and provide higher energy efficiency than forced air systems. These systems comprise an outdoor unit, as well as one or more indoor air handlers, all connected via flexible piping that transports electricity and refrigerant to create heat transfer. The absence of ductwork reduces the amount of waste and thermal leakage that is associated with duct systems. This translates into greater energy efficiency and cost-savings. Moreover as these systems do not require combustible fuel for operation and produce no harmful carbon dioxide emissions, making them green choices for your home or business.
You don’t need to sacrifice energy efficiency in order to attain the desired temperature of air. You can cool your master bedroom to 65 degrees without overcooling the other rooms. This saves energy and makes the entire family content.
The same is true for heating your home. You can set the temperature of your basement or home office or any other room with an air handler to a more moderate temperature for comfort and a consistent temperature throughout your home. Also, you don’t have to be concerned about wasting energy if you leave a room for a while and you can switch on the heating in the room using the remote control.
If you’re cooling an additional room or heating a small apartment, an ductless system can be an ideal way to heat and cool your space and help save cash all year long. It can even replace a portable air conditioner and reduce your energy bills by providing cooling and heating for your space.
A ductless system can be a fantastic alternative to space heaters, preventing you from having to juggle the use of multiple air conditioning units during the summer and space heaters in the winter. Plus, it provides an easier-to-clean look to your home and improves the quality of indoor air. It’s no surprise that ductless systems are becoming increasingly well-known.
Easy Installation
Mini-split ductless systems are made for heating and cooling spaces that do not have ductwork, or in locations where the expense of installing ductwork is not included in a new or renovated addition. Ductless systems work well for rooms that have been renovated, such as homes and sunrooms, home additions and a remodeled basement. It is also suitable for office kiosks and off-hours residential spaces. With a single-zone or multi-zone solution, each indoor unit has its own thermostat, allowing it to cool and heat only the rooms that are being utilized at any given moment.
Installation of a ductless HVAC system is easier and cheaper than traditional systems since there is no need for ductwork. A certified technician will install the outdoor unit outside of 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 wiring, control wires, and refrigerant. Based on the size of your house you may require several indoor units to ensure maximum comfort.
Ductless systems are green because of their high energy efficiency. They don’t add to the waste generated by the average household, and they reduce carbon footprint considerably.
Ductless systems have the highest SEER rating available in the industry. This allows homeowners to save on their cooling and heating bills. The most efficient ductless systems available today can save as much as 50% on energy bills compared to split system SEER ratings between 14-17.
To keep it running at its best, a ductless system requires minimal maintenance. It is typical to clean your air filters at least once every week, and we recommend regular professional maintenance. This will ensure that your ductless system will continue to function efficiently and effectively for many years to be. A ductless system can last up to 25years if it is properly care and maintenance. Our technicians are on hand to answer any questions you might have about ductless heating and air conditioning.
Maintenance
Ductless systems provide a number maintenance benefits that aren’t accessible with traditional HVAC equipment. This includes energy efficiency, which leads to lower operating costs as well as environmental impact. The absence of ductwork ensures that indoor air quality remains high. The ductwork that is typical to an HVAC system is vulnerable to contamination by grime, dirt and bacteria. It could also be contaminated by pet dander or rodent droppings. By contrast ductless systems’ subtle units are easy to maintain and can be cleaned with a quick swipe of a cloth.
The installation of HVAC systems with ductless ducts is cheaper than traditional HVAC systems. This is due to ductwork being labor-intensive and installation can be expensive, especially in older homes that do not have insulation ceilings and walls. This expense can be cut by the non-invasive nature of the ductless HVAC installation procedure. It involves the installation of both indoor and outdoor units.
As compared to window-style air conditioners the ductless HVAC systems are quieter. The system’s smaller physical size contributes to this, as does their extremely efficient operation. They also require less maintenance, requiring only the occasional need to change an air filter and a yearly inspection.
Ductless heat pump systems are also a great choice for retrofits or new construction. They can be used to replace less efficient air conditioners, space heaters and radiant heating systems. They can be installed in mobile homes, apartments, and condos in which ductwork is not feasible.
If you’re looking for a heating and cooling solution that is able to handle the northern climate, you should consider upgrading to a ductless system.
