MINI-SPLITS = DUCTLESS AIR CONDITIONING
Ductless air conditioners are cost-effective and easy to install
Retrofit solution. The air handler in a ductless heat pump system can be permanently installed on a wall or ceiling. This system provides the convenience and efficiency of central air conditioning without the ductwork system.
When a house doesn’t have an existing ductwork system to distribute conditioned air, it can be expensive and problematic to install a conventional central air conditioning system.
In the past, homeowners would have to make do with portable room air conditioners or deal with the difficulty and expense of trying to conceal newly installed ductwork. A ductless air conditioning unit is a great option for homeowners who want the comfort and convenience of central air conditioning in a house that doesn’t have a ductwork system.
High Efficiency and Savings
You might consider cooling your small living space with a window air conditioner. A ductless AC system is much more efficient, though. They operate on less power and have high efficiency ratings. As a result, they save you money.
No Need for Ductwork
Installing or extending ductwork can be an expensive project. Ductless air conditioning systems don’t require ductwork to deliver conditioned air into your living space. As a result, you avoid losing conditioned air via leaky ductwork, and you eliminate the need to schedule professional duct cleaning or repairs. You save even more money!
Easy to Install
All a ductless AC system installation requires is a three-inch hole in the wall where your unit will hang. A professional can have your ductless air conditioner cooling your living space on the same day of your installation.
Better for the Environment
Ductless AC systems have high energy efficiency ratings, which means they help reduce your household’s carbon footprint. But that’s not the only reason they’re better for the environment. They also operate using R-410A refrigerant, which doesn’t deplete the ozone like it’s predecessor R-22. Investing in ductless AC is an investment in going greener.
What Zoned Heating and Cooling Means
A ductless heating and cooling system is an innovative solution for home additions, updates to homes without air ducts and newly-built homes. Ductless systems allow for zoned climate control. A zoned heating and cooling system allows you to set a different temperature in each zone. With this system, you can satisfy different temperature preferences.
Single-zone Ductless HVAC Benefits
A single-zone ductless HVAC system has one indoor unit and one thermostat. It’s the best choice for an addition to your home, especially when the existing heating and cooling system doesn’t have the capacity for the addition. If you’re converting an unused area of your home into a finished space, such as an attic, enclosed porch or basement, a single-zone ductless system provides optimal comfort and energy efficiency.
Multi-zone Ductless HVAC Benefits
Multi-zone systems have up to four zones, and each zone has its own indoor unit and thermostat. They’re an ideal choice for replacing an HVAC system or when building a new home. They’re also a wise choice for homes with two or more floors. A distinct advantage of multi-zone setups is the ability to turn off the heating and cooling to a zone that you’re not using. This lowers energy use and reduces your home’s carbon footprint.
Dallas Mini-Split Air Conditioner Installation
In Dallas today, ductless ‘mini-split’ air conditioners provide homeowners and contractors with a permanent air conditioning system option that is perfect for retrofit applications.
Unlike a conventional central air conditioning system that relies on a network of ducts and a large, centrally located air handler – a ductless mini-split system includes smaller air handlers that are permanently mounted on the wall or ceiling. Each air handler is supplied with electricity; and a refrigerant line connected to an outdoor compressor, along with a condensate drain line.
Mini-splits usually have remote as well as console controls. Depending on its size, a single exterior compressor unit can supply one or more room-size air handlers, and each air handler can be controlled independently.
