What’s a Ductless Mini-Split System? 

A ductless mini-split system offers individualized climate control over certain “zones” rather than regulating an entire home’s temperature. They differ from most central AC and heating systems because they don’t rely on ductwork. Mini-split systems are ideal for many households looking to stay cool this summer. They offer many benefits, such as: 

Lower Energy Bills, More Savings 

Per the U.S. Department of Energy, a lot of energy loss occurs in a home’s ductwork which can account for over 30 percent of the energy usage used for the AC. This means ductless mini-split systems can help homeowners significantly with their energy bills because they don’t require air ducts, preventing the energy loss and costs associated with them.  

Additionally, because they don’t have air ducts, ductless mini splits also don’t have to deal with inefficiencies and higher energy bills due to problems in the ductwork, such as air leaks and blockages that affect airflow. While installing a ductless AC may cost more upfront, it can save homeowners money over time.  

No-Hassle Installation 

Installing ductwork in a house can turn into a daunting task. The contractor may have to remove parts of the ceiling and baseboards to get the job done, which can inconvenience homeowners. Thankfully, installation is easier with ductless mini-splits. That’s because, as the name suggests, they don’t need ductwork, so installation is not only easier but much less invasive to the home.  

They’re also beneficial compared to central AC systems because: 

• They can fit into small spaces that don’t have room for ductwork, giving homeowners more options when choosing the units’ location. 
• These units come in different designs, offering more flexibility. Many also allow for future add-ons if a homeowner wants to expand the AC’s reach. 

Improve Indoor Air Quality and Comfort

When it comes to feeling comfortable in their homes, homeowners want every area to be just right. However, achieving that ideal temperature throughout the house can be challenging, especially when some rooms get more sun exposure or have different insulation. That's where mini-split systems come in. These units allow homeowners to customize temperatures in different areas of the home, which means no more fighting over the thermostat or dealing with hot or cold spots. 

Additionally, using a ductless system can improve indoor air quality. Traditional ductwork can harbor allergens and other pollutants that circulate throughout the home. Mini-splits offer a solution as they don't require ducts, making them an excellent choice for those with allergies or who just want cleaner air in their homes. With improved comfort and better air quality, it's no wonder these units are gaining popularity among homeowners.
