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 assist you in selecting the appropriate size system for your home, and will take care of all maintenance and installation.
Ductless systems can be installed in older homes or new additions that do not have ductwork. This type of air conditioning is energy efficient and efficient.
No ductwork is required
Ductless air conditioners are a great option for homes without ductwork, or for rooms where traditional ductwork would be difficult to access. Contrary to central AC systems that use one unit in an attic and ducts to circulate air throughout the home the ductless system makes use of individual indoor blower units connected to a single outdoor condenser. These units can be placed on the walls or ceiling, allowing for flexibility in both aesthetic and functionality.
In addition to being easier to install and maintain, a ductless system is more efficient. ENERGY STAR qualified ductless systems can aid in reducing your energy consumption by heating and cooling the rooms that are in use. This is a great way to reduce the amount of waste and keep your home at a perfect temperature for everyone in the.
These systems are very easy to maintain. You can easily clean the evaporator units as well as compressors by washing the filters and running defrosters periodically. Regular maintenance by technicians will ensure that the system is operating as efficiently and smoothly as it can for as long as it can.
Many people choose ductless systems to supplement their central AC systems. They are great for adding an extra room to a home, for converting a garage or basement into a living space and also for boosting the temperature in rooms that’s often too hot or cold.
Another advantage of the ductless system is that they are more cost-effective than modern high-efficiency, high-efficiency duct systems. The Energy STAR certification for these systems can save you hundreds of dollars per year. These systems can be more efficient when you add a heat pump, which also cools and heats your home.
When deciding whether a air-conditioning HVAC system is the best option for your needs, it’s essential to speak with a reputable HVAC company.

Energy efficient
One of the main reasons to choose ductless systems over conventional heating and cooling units is that they’re much more efficient in energy use. These ENERGY START-certified systems are designed to decrease the energy use and help you save money. They do this by actively cooling areas of your home which are not being used. These systems are ideal for homes that have an addition or new garage or rooms that are difficult to heat and cool using ductwork.
Ductless systems are powered by alternating current electricity, which is then converted into direct current and then fed to the air handlers in your home. The air handlers run using a small smaller amount of power to cool a whole home with ductwork because they do not have to work as hard to move and control temperatures. This enables the system to attain higher SEER ratings than an ordinary AC system that doesn’t have a system that is ductless.
It only takes 3 inches to connect the lines from the outdoor unit all the way to an indoor air handler. This is less than the typical 12 inches of ducting required by a HVAC system.
Each air handler in your home operates independently of the others, which means you can cool the bedrooms while leaving the living space at a warmer temperature and conserving energy by not cooling it. Each air handler has its own temperature control, so you can adjust it to suit the preferences of each member of your family.
Many are thinking of the possibility of adding a gym or bedroom to their homes as the economy continues to grow. When you do this, your existing heating and cooling system could be overwhelmed by the need to regulate temperatures in an additional part of your home without ductwork. Installing a mini split ductless system in these areas will let you manage the temperature in a way that is independent and stop your home from being over-cooled or overheated. This can help you save money on your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint.
Easy to Install
Ductless air conditioners are simple to install, particularly when you are working with a professional HVAC company. These units are often installed high on an exterior wall, so the installer only needs to drill a small hole in the drywall and then feed the piping through. The ductless system then gets connected to the house using clamps to secure the piping before fixing it to the wall.
A single ductless unit can cool rooms to 400 square feet. You may need more than one ductless system to cool a large house with many floors.
Some ductless systems have multiple indoor units connected to the outdoor unit. Each unit has its own thermostat, which means that the occupants of each room can select the temperature they prefer. This is a great way to create a true cooling zone in your home or office.
Having the ability to control every zone in your house is especially useful when you live with several people who each prefer different temperatures. With an air conditioning system that is ductless it is possible to cool only those rooms that are in use and save money by not cooling empty rooms.

Our ductless maintenance manual will provide you with more information about maintaining your system.
Save Money
Ductless AC systems are typically more affordable to run than traditional AC systems. They also eliminate the potential loss of energy caused by leaky ductwork, which can significantly reduce your system’s efficiency. This will aid in keeping your energy costs at a lower level throughout the year long. You can further reduce your energy consumption by selecting an ENERGY STAR qualified system. A ductless system that has a higher SEER rating will be more efficient, which means that it will use less energy to cool your home.
Another way that ductless systems can help you save money is by providing zones of comfort. By using a remote control you can choose different temperature settings for each room in your home. This allows you to keep bedrooms and living rooms at different temperatures, without affecting other rooms in your house. This feature is especially useful if you have pets or children who spend a lot of their time in a single room.
The ductless unit is similar to a heat pump, but without the air ducts. The indoor unit (also called an air handler) blows air over the evaporator coils, which are filled with refrigerant. The refrigerant sucks up heat from the air and then ejected outside via a small gap in your ceiling or wall. The air handler can be mounted in a variety of places, including an attic, home addition, or garage.
Mini-splits with ductless technology can function as standalone units or be combined to provide whole-home cooling. They’re perfect for retrofitting or adding air conditioning to an existing home, as well as new construction or renovations that do not have the space or budget for air ducts. They’re also an excellent choice for homes with low ceilings, such as in an attic that has been converted or a garage.
A single-zone ductless system is typically enough to cool small homes and connects just one indoor air handler with the outdoor unit. Multi-zone systems can connect up to eight indoor air handlers using one condenser. This allows you to control the temperature of each room independently, which is particularly beneficial for homes with large spaces.
