Ductless Mini-Split Air Conditioner Installation in Portland, OR
Enjoy increased control and greater energy efficiency from your trusted contractor for Ductless AC Solutions.
What Is a Ductless Mini-Split Air Conditioner?
A ductless mini-split air conditioner is a type of split system air conditioner that consists of two main components: an outdoor compressor/condenser and one or more indoor air-handling units. These indoor units are typically mounted high on a wall and connected to the outdoor unit via refrigerant lines, eliminating the need for ducts.
This setup allows for individualized temperature control in different rooms or zones, enhancing comfort and energy efficiency.
Should I Consider Installing a Ductless Mini-Split?
Ductless mini-splits are fairly simple to install. They are great options for older homes that have non-ducted heating systems, such as radiant panels, space heaters, or hydronic (hot water) heating systems. Also, newer energy-efficient can benefit from a ductless mini-split, as these newer constructions typically require a smaller space conditioning system.
Energy Efficiency and Increased User Control
There are many advantages to having a ductless mini-split system installed. Firstly, they offer increased energy efficiency in comparison to traditional window-mounted air conditioning units. They also allow you to have more control over the temperature of each room or space, so those areas that are not frequently inhabited can be turned off when not in use.
Those who have installed a ductless mini-system have generally found themselves facing lower energy costs as a result.
