When it comes to cooling your home, the type of air conditioning system you choose can make a big difference in both comfort and cost. If you’re not interested in central air for your new home or the advanced age of your home makes the conversion difficult, ductless air conditioning systems, also known as mini-split systems, may be the solution. Our local HVAC contractor in Michigan and Florida can help you get started with one or multiple units.
In the meantime, here’s why you should consider for your cooling needs.
Ductless AC systems are known for their versatility in installation. Unlike traditional centralized systems that require extensive ductwork, consist of an outdoor unit connected to one or more indoor units via small pipes that only require a small hole through the wall. This flexibility makes ductless systems ideal for older homes without existing ductwork, additions, or specific areas in the home that need targeted cooling.
One of the standout features of ductless AC systems is their energy efficiency. These systems are designed to avoid the energy losses associated with ductwork, which can account for more than 30% of energy consumption, especially if the ducts are in an unconditioned space like an attic. Ductless systems use advanced compressors and fans that can adjust speeds to the exact requirements of the room, reducing electricity usage and lowering utility bills.
With ductless AC, you can control the temperature in individual rooms or zones. Each indoor unit operates independently and is controlled by its own thermostat. This means you can cool only the areas that are in use, which is more energy-efficient than cooling an entire house with a central air conditioning system. It also allows family members to set their preferred temperatures in their own spaces, leading to enhanced comfort for everyone.
Ductless air conditioners are notably quieter than most traditional air conditioning systems. The major components that generate noise are located in the outdoor unit, far removed from the indoor space. This makes mini-splits ideal for environments where noise is a concern, such as bedrooms, studies, and offices.
Indoor air quality is another significant . Since there are no ducts to collect dust, allergens, and other air pollutants, ductless systems generally provide a cleaner indoor air environment. Many models come with multi-stage filtration that further reduces dust, bacteria, pollen, allergens, and other particulates in the air.
Maintaining a ductless AC system is generally simpler and less costly than maintaining a ducted system. The filters in the indoor units are easy to access and can be cleaned or replaced by the homeowner, helping to save on maintenance costs and ensure optimal performance. Additionally, professional maintenance is straightforward, as our local HVAC technicians can easily access all parts of the system.
Whether you’re adding a cooling system to a home without existing ducts, seeking to improve energy efficiency, or wanting a quiet and high-quality indoor air system, ductless AC is worth considering.
