Why Choose a Ductless Air Conditioning Unit?

A ductless air conditioning system is the best option for cooling homes with no ductwork. Hurley & David HVAC technicians will help you choose the best size system for your home and will manage all installation and maintenance.

Ductless systems are also used in older homes or new constructions that don’t have ductwork. This type of air conditioning is energy-efficient and energy efficient.

No ductwork is required

Ductless air conditioners are an excellent alternative for homes that do not have ductwork or rooms where traditional ductwork might be difficult to reach. A ductless AC system, in contrast to central AC systems which use an attic unit and ducts for distribution of air throughout the home, employs individual indoor units connected to the outside condenser. These units can be placed along walls or on the ceiling, offering versatility for both aesthetic and practical.

A ductless system isn’t only easier to install but also more efficient. ENERGY STAR certified ductless systems can aid in saving energy by heating and cooling the rooms that are actually in use. This is a great method to reduce waste while maintaining the perfect temperature in your home for all its inhabitants.

These systems are also very easy to maintain. You can easily clean the evaporator units as well as compressors by cleaning the filters and running defrosters regularly. Regular maintenance by an expert will ensure that the system is operating as smoothly and efficiently as it is possible for as long as it can.

Many people choose ductless systems to supplement their central AC systems. They can be used to create an additional room or convert a garage or basement into living space or increase the temperature of a room which is usually too cold or hot.

Another benefit of ductless systems is that they are much more affordable than the latest, high efficiency, ducted systems. These systems can save you hundreds per year by obtaining the energy STAR certification. These systems are also more efficient when they are combined with a heat pump, which heats and cools the house.

Energy efficient

One of the primary advantages of ductless systems over conventional heating and cooling units is that they’re more efficient in energy use. These ENERGY STAR qualified systems are designed to cut down on energy consumption and help you save money by actively cooling only the areas of your house that are occupied. These systems are ideal for homes that have a new garage or addition, or rooms that are hard to heat and cool using ductwork.

Ductless systems utilize alternating current electricity to power their equipment which converts it into direct current, which is then directed through the air handlers in your home. The air handlers use only a small amount of power to cool an entire home using ductwork because they don’t need to work as hard in order to regulate temperatures and move air. This means they can have a higher SEER rating than an ordinary AC unit that does not have a ductless unit.

It only takes 3 inches to connect the lines from the outdoor unit to an indoor air handler. This is less than the typical 12 inches of ducting that is required by HVAC systems.

Each air handler in your home operates independently from the other, which means you can cool your bedrooms, but leave the living area at a higher temperature and conserving energy by not cooling it. Each air handler also has its own thermostat programmable which can be used to adjust the temperature to suit each family member’s preferences.

As the economy continues to grow, many people are contemplating the possibility of adding a gym to their home, bedroom, or other addition to their house. If you are planning to add a home gym, bedroom or other accessory to your home your heating and air conditioning system might be strained trying to regulate the temperature in a different area of your home without ductwork. A ductless mini-split system can be installed in these areas to provide you with a separate temperature control and help your home avoid unnecessary cooling or heating. This can lower your energy bills and your carbon footprint.

Easy to Install

Installing ductless air conditioners is relatively easy, especially if you work with an HVAC company that is professional. They are typically installed high on an exterior wall. The installer only needs to drill a small hole into the drywall to allow for pipe. The ductless system is attached to the home using clamps to hold the piping.

The cooling power of a single ductless unit can range from 9,000 BTUs to 24,000 BTUs, which means it is able to cool rooms that are 400 square feet or more. It is possible to require more than one ductless unit to cool a large house with several floors.

Some ductless systems have multiple indoor units connected to the outdoor unit. Each unit is equipped with its own thermostat, which means that the occupants of each room can select the temperature they prefer. This is a great method to achieve true cooling zoning at your office or home.

It is extremely useful to to control the temperature in each zone of your home, especially when you have several people living with you who prefer different temperatures. You can save money with the ductless system by cooling only rooms that are in use.

Save Money

Ductless AC systems are typically more affordable to run than traditional AC systems. They also eliminate any energy loss that may be caused by leaking ductwork. This can decrease the efficiency of your system. This will aid in keeping your energy costs at a lower level throughout the year long. You can further minimize your energy consumption by selecting an ENERGY STAR certified system. A ductless system that has a higher SEER rating will be more efficient, which means it will use less energy to cool your home.

A ductless system can also help you save money by offering comfort in zones. By using a remote control you can choose different temperature settings for each room in your house. This allows you to keep bedrooms and the living room at different temperatures without affecting other rooms of your house. This feature is particularly useful if your children or pets spend the majority of their time in a single room.

The ductless unit is similar to a heat-pump, but without the air ducts. The indoor unit, sometimes known as an air handler blows air on evaporator coils filled with refrigerant. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the air, and then it is ejected outside via tiny holes in your wall or ceiling. The air handler is mounted in a variety of locations, including an attic, a home addition or garage.

Mini-split ductless systems can be used as standalone units or in combination to provide cooling for the entire house. They are ideal for retrofitting or adding air conditioning to an existing residence or renovations or new construction that don’t have the space or budget for air ducts. They are also a great option for homes that have low ceilings, such as a garage or attic.

A single-zone ductless system is typically enough to cool a small dwelling and connects only one indoor air handler with the outdoor unit. Multi-zone systems can connect up to eight indoor air handlers via the use of a single condenser. This lets you control the temperatures of each room independently, which is especially helpful for large homes.
