Are you in the market for an HVAC system upgrade that's both efficient and flexible? Ductless mini-split systems could be what you're looking for. Our expert technicians and installers are ready to assist property owners in picking the ideal mini-split system for your home. And when it's time to proceed with installation, we are committed to a seamless and expert fit.
Different from standard furnaces that use ductwork, mini-split systems operate on a similar principle to heat pumps. This design involves a direct link between the indoor and outdoor components of your system. Choosing a properly installedmini-split system can bring numerous benefits to homeowners, including:
- Easily installed in different places: A particularly helpful part of a mini-split’s design is how many options you have for installation placement for a number of different areas. Whether you opt for units mounted on the wall, ceiling cassettes or something sleeker, mini-splits offer the flexibility you need.
- Affordable system costs: Traditional HVAC systems can be costly to set up and maintain, especially when it comes to ductwork installation. Mini-splits on the other hand, can be tucked away where they’re needed most. For many installation projects, this means lower overall costs for installation labor.
- Surprisingly robust energy efficiency: Mini-splits are intended to deliver precise, targeted heating or cooling. Independent zone control means energy is only used where it’s necessary. This means you can minimize energy wasted sending climate control to rooms you aren’t actively using, unlike traditional ductwork systems.
Individually Zoned Mini-Split Units vs. Models Compatible with Multi-Zone Designs
When you’re trying to decide between different mini-splits, keep in mind that single-zone mini-splits are suited for specific areas, whereas multi-zone systems enable independent climate control across multiple spaces of your home.
Determining the Best Locations for Mini-Split Installation: Different Types and Their Advantages
The location of your mini-split system is vital for the best possible results. Below are several ways you can install mini-splits along with their advantages:
- Wall Mounted: These units are simple to install, making them a budget-friendly option. Wall-mounted mini-splits efficiently distribute your desired temperatures for both heating and cooling.
- Floor Mounted: An effective option for homes where installation on the wall or ceiling won’t work.
- Ceiling Cassette: Ceiling units are ideal for wide coverage. They're generally installed to integrate smoothly with your ceiling's appearance.
- Concealed Duct: Hidden from view, concealed duct mini-splits are perhaps the most indiscreet option. They are the perfect fit for homes with several rooms or large open layouts, delivering a clean look with powerful performance.
Consider the system’s size, layout and other specific HVAC requirements of your home as you compare mini-split systems. An experienced installer has the knowledge of different brand features to ensure you make an informed choice.
