Ductless Air Conditioning Systems

If you are building a new house or putting in an addition, you may be one of those people that are considering getting away from more traditional HVAC systems and going with ductless air conditioning systems. This is becoming the norm when it comes to new construction all across the country. Is it the right choice for you?

Much of that can only be determined by knowing what benefits a ductless air conditioning system (sometimes referred to as a ductless mini-split system) offers. Here is what some of those are.

Ease of Installation

This is one of the most obvious benefits of ductless air conditioning systems. Few jobs are more tedious during residential and commercial construction than placing ductwork in the walls and floors of a structure. This becomes even a bigger installation difficulty factor when doing such types of remodeling as converting a detached garage into an office or living space. It’s a task that becomes so much easier when the placement of ductwork is taken out of the equation. That’s because there is then no need to do such things as tear up existing flooring or walls. 

Cost Savings

There are several ways that a ductless mini-split system saves a home or business owner money. One is that they tend to be much more energy-efficient than traditional HVAC systems. This is because one main outdoor unit can be paired up with several controllable indoor units for more effective zone cooling. That also eliminates the need to do such energy-saving steps as closing vents in unused rooms or installing expensive smart controls and automatic vents in your ductwork. The ductwork that goes throughout a home or business is also the major source of energy loss in a traditional HVAC system. That cost factor is now eliminated by using an air conditioning system that does not require ductwork.

Cleaner Air to Breathe

There is a reason why there are so many companies that offer duct cleaning services. That’s because the ductwork that goes throughout a home or business is a major reason that indoor air quality is up to 5-times more polluted than outdoor air quality. Ductwork is known for collecting pollen on its sides, getting lined with dust & pet dander, and traps moisture which then becomes a source for undesirable mold and mildew growth. With ductless air conditioning systems, you instantly reduce the air quality problems that having ductwork throughout a home or business creates.

More Personalized Comfort

Unless you have a fancy smart controlled automatic zoned HVAC system, you will set a single temperature for just a few areas of your home or business. Why is that not desirable. Because the person watching a movie in the family room may not want that room the same temperature as the person using the study. Ductless mini-split systems will have individual control units placed in each room they are installed in. This makes it much easier to personalize the comfort of the temperature in each room that uses them.

Space Savings & Lower Maintenance

These are two benefits of air conditioning systems that have no ductwork that should never be overlooked. They are designed to take up much less space than a central HVAC system. Smaller-sized units and no ductwork also mean that there are fewer parts on a system that can potentially break down and need repairs and this also equates to routine maintenance on the system being less extensive and time-consuming.
