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 right size system for your home, and will handle all installation and maintenance.
Ductless systems are also ideal for new additions to your home or for older homes which do not have ductwork. This type of air conditioning is energy-efficient and energy efficient.
No ductwork is required
Ductless air conditioners are a great option for homes without ductwork, or in rooms where traditional ductwork would be difficult to reach. A ductless AC system, in contrast to central AC systems, which rely on a unit in the attic and ducts for distribution of air throughout the home, employs individual indoor units linked to a condenser outside. These units can be placed on the wall or ceiling and provide a variety of aesthetics and functional.
A ductless system is not only more convenient to install, but also more efficient. ENERGY STAR qualified ductless systems can help you reduce your energy costs by heating and cooling the rooms that are being used. This is a great way to reduce waste and maintain your home at a comfortable temperature for everyone in the.
These systems are easy to maintain. You can easily clean the evaporator units as well as compressors by washing the filters and running defrosters regularly. Regular maintenance by technicians will ensure that the system is operating as smoothly and efficiently as possible for as long as it can.
Many people use ductless systems to supplement their central AC systems. They are a great way to add an additional room, convert a garage or basement into a living space, or boost the temperature of a space that is often too hot or cold.
A ductless system has the benefit of being more affordable than the latest high-efficiency ducted systems. The ENERGY STAR certification for these systems could save you hundreds of dollars per year. These systems are also more efficient when combined with a heat pump, which heats and cools the house.
It’s important to work with an established HVAC company when deciding if a ductless system is right for you. Garden City HVAC’s expert technicians can answer all your questions and help you pick the best ductless system to suit your requirements. Contact them today to get started!
Energy efficient
The fact that ductless systems are more energy-efficient than conventional cooling and heating systems is an important reason to go with them. These ENERGY STAR qualified systems are designed to reduce energy usage and help you save money by cooling only the areas of your home that are used. These systems are perfect for homes that have a new garage or addition, or rooms that are hard to heat and cool using ductwork.
Ductless systems use alternating current electricity to power their equipment, which converts it into direct current, which is then fed through individual air handlers inside your home. The air handlers run with a smaller amount of power to cool the entire home using ductwork since they don’t need to work as hard to move and regulate temperatures. This lets the system attain higher SEER ratings than a conventional AC system that doesn’t have a dedicated air ductless unit.
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 standard 12 inches of ducting that is required by a HVAC system.
Each air handler operates independently, so you can cool your bedrooms and keep the living room at the same temperature. This will help save energy because it’s not chilled. Each air handler has its own temperature control, so you can tailor it to the preferences of each member of your family.
Many people are considering the possibility of adding a gym or bedroom to their home as the economy continues to grow. If you add an exercise room, bedroom or other accessory to your home your heating and air conditioning system could be overwhelmed trying to control the temperature in an area of your home without ductwork. Installing a ductless mini split system in these areas will allow you to control the temperature independently and stop your home from being overheated or cooled. This can help you save money on your energy bills as well as reduce your carbon footprint.
Easy to Install
Installing ductless air conditioners is easy, especially if you are working with a professional HVAC firm. These units are usually mounted high on an exterior wall. The installer will only need to drill a tiny hole into the drywall to allow for pipe. The ductless system then gets connected to the house using clamps that secure the piping, and then fixed to the wall.
A single ductless unit can cool rooms to 400 square feet. If you own a huge home with multiple stories, you might need to install more than one ductless unit in order to cool the entire house.
Some ductless systems come with multiple indoor units that are connected to the outdoor condenser unit and each unit comes with its own thermostat so the residents can set the temperature they prefer in their own room. This is a great method to create cooling zones within your business or home.
It is very useful to be able to regulate the temperature of each area of your home, especially when you have several family members who have different preferences for temperature. 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 rooms that aren’t being used.

Our manual for maintenance on ductless systems will help you learn more about how to maintain your system.
Save Money
Ductless air conditioning systems are generally more affordable to operate than traditional AC systems. They also reduce any energy loss that could be caused by leaks in air ducts. This can decrease the efficiency of your system. This can help keep your energy bills lower throughout the year. You can cut down on energy usage by selecting an appliance that is ENERGY STAR certified. A ductless system that has higher SEER ratings will be more efficient, which means that it will require less energy to cool your home.
Another way in which a ductless system can save you money is through providing zoned comfort. You can utilize a remote control to set different temperatures for each area of your home. You can maintain your living room and bedroom at different temperatures, without having an impact on other rooms in your home. This feature is especially useful for families with children or pets who spend the majority of their time in one room.
A ductless system works similarly to a heat pump, but without air ducts. The indoor unit, also called an air handler, blows air over the evaporator coils that are filled with refrigerant. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the air and is then released outside through a small opening in your ceiling or wall. The air handler can be mounted in many different places such as garages, attics or home addition.
Mini-split ductless systems are used as standalone units, or combined to provide cooling for the entire house. They’re ideal for retrofitting or adding air conditioning to an existing home, as well as new construction or renovations that don’t have the space or budget for air ducts. They’re also a great option for homes with low ceilings such as a garage or attic.
A single-zone ductless unit is usually enough to cool a small dwelling, and it connects just one indoor air handler to an outdoor unit. Multi-zone systems can connect up to eight indoor air handlers via the use of a single condenser. This lets you control the temperatures of each room in a way that is especially beneficial for homes with large rooms.
