A ductless mini-split is a type of air conditioning system that uses an outside condensing unit to cool air locally. The cool air is not delivered through ducts but through a wall-mounted or ceiling-mounted blower unit. Several indoor blower units can operate separately in different rooms connected to one outdoor condenser.
Ductless HVAC systems have four basic advantages over conventional central air conditioners:
- Typically, ductless systems are more efficient. Because cool air is delivered immediately and does not travel through ducts, it maintains its desired temperature, in turn using less energy.
- Ductless systems offer the option for zone heating and cooling. The nature of ductless systems means that home or business owners can set the temperature for different rooms – up to four – while using the same ductless mini-split unit.
- Ductless systems are smaller and can be more attractive. Ductless mini-split systems typically take up less space on the exterior of your home and do not require ductwork for delivery.
- Ductless systems are often less expensive to maintain. Because they do not require ductwork, ductless mini-split systems are typically less expensive to maintain.
