Ductless Heating and Cooling
Ductless heating and cooling provides homeowners the opportunity to enjoy the ultimate comfort in their homes. They offer individual comfort zones as well as cost savings.
Ductless systems consist of an outdoor unit, and indoor air handlers which are used to cool or heat specific rooms in your home. They are a replacement for baseboard heating systems windows, window air conditioning and space heaters.
Customized Temperatures
Ductless systems offer homeowners greater control over their heating and cooling. They don’t require ductwork to operate, and they can be used in places like sunrooms, garages and basements that wouldn’t be feasible with a conventional system. These mini-splits are also very efficient in terms of energy consumption, and could help you save a lot of money on your energy bills.
In winter, they utilize an outdoor unit to generate heat, and then transfer it indoors. In summer, they change to become air conditioners by taking heat from the air inside your home. Ductless systems work more quietly than conventional systems. The air handling unit in the indoor space also includes built-in filters that improve the quality of the air in your home.
With ductless heating, you can control the temperature in each room individually. This is great for families that have different preferences. Each indoor air-handling unit comes with its own thermostat, which allows you to set it according to your family’s requirements and lifestyle. This flexibility allows every member of your family to enjoy their ideal living environment.
They are more energy efficient than conventional furnaces and air conditioners because they don’t need to heat or cool your entire house all at once. This is because they don’t have to work as hard to maintain a perfect temperature, and also conserve energy by not heating or cooling rooms that aren’t in use.
The absence of ducts will help reduce energy consumption, which in turn cuts down on the cost of cooling and heating. Your ductless system is more efficient if you choose an efficient unit that makes use of eco-friendly refrigeration.
In addition to their cost-effectiveness and ease of use, ductless systems are also quieter and easier to install than conventional HVAC systems. They can be mounted on walls or ceilings and their compact design makes them less visible than ductwork. They’re also easier to install in new construction or renovations than conventional systems would be. With their simple-to-use smart controls, you can track your energy usage and adjust your settings remotely on a smartphone or computer.
Energy Efficiency
Ductless systems are unique in design that offers more energy efficiency than forced-air systems. These systems consist of an outdoor unit as well as one or more indoor air handlers. They are connected with flexible piping that carries coolant and electricity to generate heat. The absence of ductwork reduces heat loss and waste that comes with duct systems. This translates into higher efficiency in energy and savings. These systems are also environmentally sustainable since they don’t release harmful emissions or produce carbon dioxide.
A ductless system can offer zoned comfort to meet your needs to the fullest extent which means you don’t need to sacrifice energy efficiency to get the air temperature you want. You can cool your master bedroom down to 65 degrees, without overcooling the other rooms. This saves energy and makes the entire family happy.
The same applies to heating your home. You can set the basement or home office, or any other room that has an air handler to a lower temperature to ensure an even and comfortable temperature throughout your home. You don’t have to worry about wasting electricity when you leave an area for a few minutes since you can turn on the heat with your remote.
Whether you’re cooling an extra space or heating an apartment, a ductless system is an ideal way to heat and cool your home and save money all year round. It can be used to replace an AC unit that is portable and lower your energy bills by providing heating and cooling.
A ductless system is a great replacement for space heaters. This will save you from having multiple air conditioners in summer and space heaters in winter. Additionally, it gives an improved look in your home and improves indoor air quality. When you consider all the advantages of a ductless system, it’s not surprising that they’re becoming increasingly popular!
Easy Installation
Mini-split systems with ductless are designed to heat and cool spaces that do not have ductwork or where a new addition or renovation does not include the expense of installing ductwork. A ductless system is great for remodeled rooms, sunrooms and basements. It is also ideal for office kiosks and residential spaces that are not open during the day. With a single-zone or multi-zone solution each indoor unit is equipped with its own thermostat, which allows it to cool and heat only the rooms that are being utilized at any given moment.
Installing a HVAC system that is ductless is simpler and more affordable than traditional systems, as there is no requirement for ductwork. A licensed technician will simply install the outdoor unit on a concrete pad outside your home and connect it to the air handlers within your home. Installers will run a conduit to connect the indoor units with the outdoor unit. The outdoor unit houses the equipment, control wires, and refrigerant. Depending on your home’s size it may be necessary to have multiple indoor units to achieve maximum comfort.
Ductless systems are eco-friendly due to their energy efficiency. They don’t add to the amount of waste produced by a typical household and they also significantly reduce the carbon footprint of a home.
Ductless systems boast some of the highest SEER ratings available in the market which allows homeowners to enjoy substantial savings on their cooling and heating costs. The most efficient ductless systems available today can save up to 50% on energy bills compared to split system SEER ratings that range from 14-17.
To ensure it is operating at its best, a ductless system only requires minimal maintenance. You’ll typically need to clean your air filters once a week, and we recommend regular professional service. This will ensure that your ductless system is operating efficiently and effectively for many long time to come. A ductless system will last up to 25years or more with proper maintenance and care. Our experienced technicians are happy to answer any questions you may have regarding ductless heating and cooling.
Maintenance
Ductless systems provide many maintenance benefits that are not offered by traditional HVAC equipment. This includes energy efficiency, which contributes to lower operating costs and environmental impact. The absence of ductwork helps to maintain a high indoor air quality. The ductwork of a traditional HVAC system is susceptible to contamination by grime, dirt and bacterial. It is also contaminated by pet dander or rodent droppings. The ductless units, which are not visible, systems are easy to clean and maintain.
The installation of ductless HVAC systems is also less expensive than traditional HVAC systems. This is due to ductwork being labor-intensive, and installation can be expensive, especially in older homes that have uninsulated ceilings and walls. The noninvasive nature of the installation process, which involves mounting indoor and outdoor units, removes the need for this expense and can be completed in one day.
As compared to window-style air conditioners ductless HVAC systems are much quieter. This is due to the smaller size of the units, as well as how efficient they are. They also require much less maintenance, requiring only the occasional need to replace the air filter, and a yearly inspection.
Ductless heat pumps are also great for retrofits and new construction. They can be substituted for less efficient space heaters and window air conditioners and radiant heating systems. They can be installed in condominiums, apartments and mobile homes where ductwork isn’t practical.
You should consider upgrading to a air-conditioning and heating system that is ductless if you are looking for an option that will be able to handle the northern climate. A professional can assess the requirements of your home and assist you in selecting the best ductless system for your home and ensure it’s installed properly. Contact us today to start.
