You’ve no doubt seen them…you probably even know people who have them. But you’re still not sold on the concept. Or, maybe you just haven’t had the time or inclination to dig a little deeper.
In either case, allow us to be of some assistance. We’re talking about ductless air system. They also go by:
- Ductless air conditioners
- Mini-splits
- Wall-mounted AC systems
- Ductless heat pumps
For now, what they’re called isn’t the point. What matters is what a ductless air system can do for you. Here are four practical applications.
No Existing Ductwork
Some homes just weren’t built with air ducts in mind. If you live in such a home, it might be cost prohibitive to add them. So, now you’re left with the choice of window or portable AC units. These are two good options, but a ductless air system is even better. That’s because it can provide cooling and heating in one very energy efficient package.
It also can cover one room, your whole house, or any amount of space in between.
Room Addition
If your heating and AC systems were properly sized, they’re probably not up to the challenge of covering a new addition. Back in the day, that would have meant upgrading both systems to accommodate the additional square footage. Now you have a more practical and affordable solution – install a ductless air system in the addition and enjoy year-round indoor comfort.
Beefing Up Your Existing Systems
Let’s say you have a two-story home where you enjoy perfect comfort downstairs but, come summer, the upstairs bedrooms are like ovens. That’s just one way your current AC system can let you down and a ductless air system can fill the gap. Have one installed just for the upstairs and enjoy all the comforts of home upstairs and down.
Heat & Cool Your Garage
Thinking about buying an antique car you plan to store in your garage? You’re going to want central air and heat to help protect it. Have exposed water pipes in your garage? You can prevent frozen and burst pipes in a well-heated garage.
