Why Would You Want Ductless Mini Splits?

If you are considering adding more air conditioning to your home or cooling rooms not currently part of the duct network, it may be more difficult and expensive than you realize. You could opt for a less costly window unit, but they can be noisy and unattractive. If you're looking for a way to add cooling to a space without installing ducts or settling for less, ductless mini splits offer a versatile, middle-of-the-road option with more than a few benefits.

  • Ductless – Unlike a central air unit, mini splits do not hook into a duct system. This makes them an optimal choice for add-ons or areas that do not have ductwork.

  • Quiet – Window air conditioners tend to be noisy. A ductless mini split has two separate parts, with the noisiest piece, the condenser, sitting outside the structure. This allows for quieter operation than you get with a traditional window unit.

  • Energy efficiency – Leaky ductwork can lose as much as 20 percent of conditioned air, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Ductless mini splits do not work with ducts, so there is no wasted energy as air passes into your living spaces.

  • Security – With a window unit, you are opening a space that might give intruders easy access to your home. Ductless mini splits require just a small hole to run tubing through. The tube connects the outside condensing unit to the indoor air handler.

  • Zoning – As many as four air handlers can run off of one outdoor unit, and since each air handler has its own thermostat, ductless mini splits allow you to condition specific areas or zones. Why spend the money to cool a space no one is using?

Easy installation, security, quiet operation, efficiency and no need for ductwork -- all these features add up to savings and convenience for homeowners.
