Benefits of Ductless Heating and Cooling
Ductless heating and cooling systems provide substantial benefits over other methods of temperature control:
- Easy Installation – For those who want to add cooling or heating to a space that doesn’t have ductwork and vents, a ductless system offers an alternative that doesn’t require costly retrofitting. Ductless systems can provide comparable or better output over standard HVAC.
- Superior Energy Efficiency – The energy efficiency of ductless systems is hard to beat. Even the best HVAC systems can lose heat through ductwork, but ductless systems don’t have that issue. Window units and portable systems are also far less energy efficient than ductless units.
- Targeted Temperature Control – With a ductless mini-split air conditioner, air is delivered only to the space where it’s needed. Instead of air conditioning vacant rooms, these units provide temperature regulation only to specific areas.
- Ductless mini-split systems offer home and business owners a cost-effective way to replace inefficient window air conditioning units, space heaters and electric baseboard heaters. They can be installed in home additions, new construction, condominiums and apartments, or to improve temperature control in specific rooms. Ductless mini-split systems can even be fit for buildings that currently use ducted forced-air systems.
- Ductless mini-split systems also allow homeowners to create “zones” in their home, which means they no longer have to cool or heat rooms that aren’t occupied.
