How Does a Ductless Mini-Split Work?
Ductless mini-split systems transfer heat between indoor and outdoor units using refrigerant. They consist of an outdoor compressor/condenser and one or more indoor air-handling units mounted in individual rooms.
The outdoor unit captures and releases heat, while the indoor unit circulates conditioned air directly into each zone. In cooling mode, the system absorbs heat from the indoor air and expels it outside; in heating mode, the process reverses to bring warmth indoors.
Benefits of Ductless Mini-Split Systems
- Energy Efficiency: Ductless systems consume less energy than conventional HVAC systems, allowing for precise temperature control in individual rooms.
- Zone Control: Customize temperatures in different zones of your home or office for maximum comfort and efficiency.
- Flexible Installation: Ductless mini-splits are compact and easy to install in homes lacking traditional ductwork, ideal for older buildings, room additions, and more.
- Improved Indoor Air Quality: These systems provide filtration to reduce airborne contaminants, enhancing air quality within your space.
- Quiet Operation: Mini-split systems are designed to operate quietly, making them suitable for bedrooms, offices, and living rooms.
