Why Install Ductless Mini Splits?
The energy efficiency of a home’s heating and cooling system is tied directly to monthly energy bills. Because of this, many homeowners install energy-efficient systems to lower their monthly heating and cooling costs. One option to consider for efficient heating and cooling is installing ductless mini splits. This blog post will share some significant benefits of ductless mini-split systems.
Save on Energy Bills
There are plenty of reasons people love their traditional forced-air HVAC systems with ductwork, but the ducts can account for energy losses. Ductless mini splits are more efficient than central air systems since they don’t use air ducts, preventing the energy losses that occur in ductwork.
Zoned heating and cooling with ductless mini split AC and heating systems also make it easier to use only what is needed since each zone or room with an indoor unit can have different temperatures, meaning homeowners don’t have to use more energy than necessary to keep rooms comfortable that aren’t in use.
Mini-splits are more energy-efficient, minimizing heating and cooling costs. Homeowners may also be eligible for federal tax credits when they install certain energy-efficient ductless mini splits, offsetting the initial installation cost and opening the door for long-term savings.
Quick and Easy Installation
Installing a new ducted forced air system takes longer than the more simple, less-invasive process for a ductless mini split. A simpler installation means less time dealing with installation and more time enjoying a comfortable home. In most cases, the biggest change made involves drilling small holes for a conduit to pass through. The actual scope of the installation depends on a home’s setup, but it’s quicker and easier compared to the need to install air ducts behind walls and ceilings.
Because they don’t require air duct installation, ductless mini splits are also great options for adding heating and cooling to homes that have little square footage to spare for ductwork or retrofitting older homes without air ducts. Additionally, they can be used to heat and cool home additions or separate structures, such as guest houses that aren’t connected to the main home through ductwork.
More Customizable Heating and Cooling for Total Comfort
Nothing beats the flexibility of a mini-split system. Instead of pushing heated or cooled air at one temperature through a shared duct system to the entire home, ductless mini-split indoor units can be individually controlled for the optimal temperature in different zones of a home. This allows for customized comfort.
Zoned air control can improve comfort in the home without tacking on an extra price tag. In fact, it can often save money. Homeowners can adjust temperatures in different parts of a home to reduce energy usage and save money when parts of a home aren’t frequently occupied. Working with knowledgeable professionals makes tailoring a ductless mini split system for the needs of a home easy and paves the road for long-term satisfaction.
