Why Choose a Ductless Air Conditioning Unit?

The ductless system is the best option for cooling homes that do not have 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 can also be utilized in older homes as well as new additions that don’t have ductwork. This type of air conditioner is energy efficient and energy-saving.

No need for ductwork

Ductless air conditioners are a great alternative for homes that do not have ductwork, or for rooms where traditional ductwork would be difficult to reach. A ductless AC system, unlike central AC systems, which rely on an attic unit and ducts for distribution of air throughout the home, uses individual indoor units connected to a condenser outside. These units can be mounted on the walls or ceiling, allowing for flexibility in both aesthetic and functionality.

A ductless system isn’t only easier to install but also more efficient. ENERGY STAR certified ductless systems will save you money by cooling and heating the rooms that are in use. This is a great method to reduce the amount of waste and keep your home at the ideal temperature for everyone in the.

These systems are easy to maintain. You can easily clean the evaporator units as well as compressors by cleaning the filters and running defrosters regularly. Additionally regular maintenance performed by a professional technician will ensure that the system runs smoothly and efficiently for as long as it is possible.

Many people opt to use ductless systems instead of their traditional central AC systems. They are ideal for adding a second space to a house and for converting garages or basement into a living space and also for boosting the temperature in a room that is often too hot or too cold.

Another benefit of a ductless system is that they are more cost-effective than modern, high efficiency, ducted systems. These systems can save you hundreds of dollars per year, thanks to the energy STAR certification. These systems are more efficient when paired with a heat pump which cools and heats the house.

When deciding whether you think a air-conditioning HVAC system is the best option for your needs, it’s essential to consult with a reputable HVAC company.

Energy efficient

The fact that ductless systems are more efficient than conventional cooling and heating systems is a major reason to go with them. These ENERGY STAR-certified systems are designed to decrease your energy usage and help you save money. They accomplish this by actively cooling areas of your house that are used. This makes them ideal for homes with a brand new addition or garage, or that have rooms that are difficult to heat and cool with ductwork.

Ductless systems utilize alternating current electricity to power their equipment, which converts it to direct current that is delivered to the individual air handlers inside your home. The air handlers use a fraction of power to cool a home with ductwork, because they don’t have to perform as much work to regulate temperatures and move air. This allows for a higher SEER rating than a conventional AC unit that doesn’t 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 standard 12 inches of ducting that is required by a HVAC system.

Each air handler in your home operates independently from the others and this means that you can cool the bedrooms, but leave the living area at a higher temperature and conserving energy by not cooling it. Each air handler has its own programmable temperature control, meaning you can fine-tune it to suit the preferences of each member of your family.

Many are thinking of building a home gym or bedroom to their home as the economy continues to grow. If you do this, your current heating and cooling system could be overwhelmed by the need to control temperatures in an additional area of your house without ductwork. Installing a mini split ductless system in these areas will allow you to control the temperature independently and prevent your home from being overheated or cooled. This can reduce your energy bills as well as your carbon footprint.

Easy to Install

Installing ductless air conditioners is simple, particularly if work with an experienced HVAC company. These units are often mounted high up on an exterior wall, and the installer needs to cut a tiny hole in the wall and then feed the piping through. The ductless system is then attached to the house by clamps that hold the piping before fixing it to the wall.

The cooling capacity of a single ductless system can range from 9,000 BTUs to 24,000 BTUs. This means that it is able to cool rooms of up to 400 square feet or more. It’s possible that you’ll need more than one ductless system in order to cool a large home 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 people in each room can select the temperature they prefer. This is a great way to create a true cooling zone within your office or home.

It is extremely beneficial to to control the temperature in each zone of your house, especially when you have several people living with you who have different preferences for temperature. With a ductless air conditioning system it is possible to cool only the spaces that are occupied and save money by not cooling rooms that aren’t in use.

Contact us today if are interested in upgrading to an AC ductless system or adding air conditioning to your gym or garage. We’ll assist you in selecting the most suitable ductless AC system to meet your needs, and take care of all maintenance and installation.

Getting the most out of your ductless system is dependent on proper maintenance, including regular filter replacements, as well as periodic cleaning and inspection of the evaporator coils and condenser unit. Our technicians can assist you to make a maintenance schedule that’s suitable for your ductless system and the space it is serving. You can also learn more about maintaining your ductless system by reading our ductless maintenance guide.

Save Money

Ductless AC systems are usually cheaper to operate than traditional AC systems. They also prevent any loss of energy that may be caused by leaking ductwork. This can reduce the effectiveness of your system. This can help to reduce your energy costs throughout the year. You can further minimize your energy consumption by selecting a ENERGY STAR certified system. A ductless system that has an increase in SEER will be more efficient and use less energy.

A ductless system can also help you save money by offering zoned comfort. You can use a remote control to set different temperatures for each room of your home. You can keep your living room and bedroom at different temperatures without impacting other rooms in your home. This feature can be particularly beneficial if you have children or pets who spend much of their time in a single room.

A ductless system works similar to a heat pump but without air ducts. The indoor unit (also known as an air handler) blows air over evaporator coils which are filled with refrigerant. The refrigerant sucks up heat from the air, then it is ejected outside via a small hole in your ceiling or wall. The air handler can be placed in many different places such as garages, attics or even a home addition.

Mini-split ductless systems are used as standalone units, or combined to cool the entire house. They are perfect for retrofitting an old home or adding air conditioning and for renovations or new construction where there is no space or budget for air ducts. They’re also an excellent choice for homes with low ceilings like a converted attic or garage.

A single-zone ductless system is typically enough to cool a small home, and it connects just one indoor air handler to the outdoor unit. Multi-zone systems connect up to 8 indoor air handlers to a single condenser. This lets you individually regulate the temperature in each room, which is especially useful for large homes.
