Ductless Heating and Cooling
Ductless heating and air conditioning gives homeowners the opportunity to enjoy the highest level of comfort for their home. They offer individual comfort zones as well as cost savings.
Ductless systems are made up of an outdoor unit, and indoor air handlers that heat or cool specific rooms in your house. They are a replacement for baseboard heating systems, window air conditioning and space heaters.
Customized Temperatures
Ductless systems give homeowners greater control over their heating and cooling. They do not require the use of ductwork and can be placed in areas like sunrooms or garages. These mini-split systems are also highly energy efficient and can help you save money on your energy bills.
In winter, they employ an outdoor unit to generate heat and then transfer it indoors. In summer, they function as air conditioners, and remove the heat from your home’s air. Ductless systems are more quiet than traditional systems and the indoor air handling units come with filters to improve your home’s air quality.
With ductless heating, you can alter the temperature in each space in a way that is individual. This is great for families with different preferences. Each indoor air-handling system comes with its own thermostat that you can adjust in accordance with the needs and lifestyle of your family. This degree of personalization allows every member of your family to have their ideal home environment.
Since these systems don’t have to heat and cool your entire home at once, they’re more energy efficient than conventional furnaces and air conditioners. This is because they don’t have to exert as much effort to maintain a consistent temperature, and also avoid wasting energy by not cooling or heating rooms that aren’t being utilized.
The absence of ducts can help reduce energy consumption, which in turn cuts down on your cooling and heating costs. The ductless system will be more efficient if it is the most efficient model that utilizes environmentally friendly refrigeration.
Ductless systems are more cost-effective and efficient than traditional HVAC systems. They are also more quiet and simpler for installers to install. They can be mounted on ceilings and walls, and their compact design makes them less visible than ductwork. They’re also more easy to install in new construction or renovations than conventional systems could be. With their easy-to-use, smart controls, you can monitor your energy consumption and alter your settings remotely from computers or smartphones.
Energy Efficiency
Ductless systems feature a unique design that gives more 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 refrigerant and electricity to create heat transfer. The absence of ductwork reduces heat loss and waste that comes with duct systems. This results in higher efficiency in energy and savings. Furthermore as these systems do not use combustible fuel to operate, they also don’t produce harmful carbon dioxide emissions, making them an environmentally friendly choice for your business or home.
There is no need to sacrifice energy efficiency in order to attain the desired air temperature. For instance, you can cool the master bedroom to a comfortable 65 degrees without overcooling other rooms in the house. This saves energy and keeps the whole family happy.
The same is true for heating your home. You can set your home office, basement or any other space that has an air handler at an appropriate temperature to guarantee a comfortable and consistent heat throughout your home. You don’t need to be concerned about using up energy if you leave an area for a short time because you can turn on the heat in the area with your remote control.
If you’re cooling an extra room or heating a smaller apartment, an ductless system can be a great way to heat and cool your home and save cash all year long. It can also replace an air conditioner that is portable and cut down on your energy costs by providing cooling and heating for your space.
A ductless system is a great replacement for space heaters. This will save you from having to use multiple air conditioners in summer and space heaters in the winter. It also improves the indoor air quality and gives your space a more streamlined appearance. When you consider all the advantages of a ductless system, it’s no wonder why they’re becoming so popular!
Easy Installation
Ductless mini-split systems are designed to heat and cool spaces that do not have ductwork or where a new addition or renovation is not covered by the cost of putting in ductwork. A ductless system is ideal in remodeled rooms in older homes, sunrooms, home additions and basements that have been renovated. It is also suitable for office kiosks and off-hours residential spaces. Each indoor unit in a multi-zone or single-zone solution has its own thermostat. This allows you to chill and heat the rooms in use at any time.
The installation of a air-conditioning and heating system that is ductless is much easier and less costly than a traditional HVAC system because there is no need for ductwork. A certified technician will install the outdoor unit on a concrete pad outside your home and connect it to the air handlers within your home. The installers will run a conduit from the indoor units to the outdoor unit which houses the control wiring, the equipment and refrigerant lines. Depending on the size of your house there may be multiple indoor units that need to be put in place to provide optimum comfort.
Ductless systems are green because of their high energy efficiency. They do not increase the amount of waste generated by the typical household, and they drastically reduce the carbon footprint of a home.
Ductless systems come with some of the highest SEER ratings available in the market, allowing homeowners to make substantial savings on their cooling and heating costs. Compared to traditional split system SEER ratings of 14-17, today’s highest performing ductless systems can offer up to 50 percent savings on monthly energy bills.
To keep it running at its peak, a ductless system requires minimal maintenance. It is typical to clean your air filters at least once a week, and we recommend regular professional maintenance. This will ensure that your ductless system operates effectively and efficiently for long time to come. A ductless system will last for 25years or more with proper care and maintenance. Our technicians are available to answer any questions that you may have regarding the ductless heating and cooling system.
Maintenance
Ductless systems provide a variety of maintenance benefits that traditional HVAC equipment cannot beat. This includes energy efficiency, which contributes to lower operating costs as well as environmental impact. The absence of ductwork can help to maintain high indoor air quality. The ductwork in a traditional HVAC system is prone to contamination by grime, dirt and bacterial. It can also be affected by pet dander or rodent droppings. The ductless units, which are not visible, systems are easy to clean and maintain.
In addition the fact that HVAC systems that are ductless are less expensive to install than traditional HVACs. This is because the installation of ductwork is labor-intensive and costly, especially for older homes with uninsulated walls and ceilings. This expense can be cut through the non-invasive nature the installation of ductless HVAC. It involves mounting indoor and outdoor units.
Comparing ductless HVAC to windows-style HVAC systems, they are much quieter. The system’s smaller size contributes to this, as does their incredibly efficient operation. They require less maintenance with just one or two air filters that need to be replaced and a once-a-year inspection.
Ductless heat pumps are also a great choice for retrofits or new construction. They can be used to replace less efficient space heaters, air conditioners and radiant heating systems. They can be used in mobile homes or apartments, as well as condos where ductwork isn’t feasible.
If you’re looking for an HVAC system that can handle our harsh northern climate, you should consider upgrading to a ductless system. A professional can assess the requirements of your house and help you choose the most appropriate ductless system for your home and ensure that it is installed correctly. Contact us today to start.
