6 Benefits of Ductless AC Units

You may ask, ‘why would I want to choose a ductless AC unit?’. Well, maybe your home doesn’t have any existing ductwork for an AC unit, or you only want to heat or cool only certain areas of your home while still having access to all windows. Each ductless AC unit has its own thermostat, so you can regulate the temperature throughout your home. Not convinced? Below, we give you a few reasons why a ductless system may be the right choice for you, your family, or your business.

1. Easy and Flexible Installation

Installing traditional HVAC systems is a complex, lengthy and costly process if you need to add new ductwork into the walls of your home. Installing a ductless air conditioner, on the other hand, isn’t as labor-intensive. With easy-installation comes lower install fees! Ductless air conditioning systems require only mounting a wall unit and running piping from the outdoor compressor to the wall-mounted unit.

2. Personalized and Precise Comfort with Greater Humidity Control

Each unit has its own thermostat, allowing for temperature control to be zone-specific. This means that specific temperatures are reached for individual small spaces, instead of one unit working to cool your entire home, requiring less energy. Zoned temperature control 

3. Improves Air Quality

Having a ductless system means that no allergens (dander, hair, or other debris) make their way back into your home through the unit. The air comes directly from outside and goes through a filtration system before entering your home. Your air is always clean and healthy.

4. Energy Efficient

As previously mentioned in reason #2, each unit has its own thermostat. This allows you to switch off units in rooms that are not currently in use, so you don’t have to cool your entire home. With a traditional HVAC unit, you may run into leaking air ducts, which would reduce the efficiency of the unit. Avoid this problem entirely with a ductless AC unit. 

5. Silent, Small and Minimal 

Traditional window units are notoriously obtrusive and loud, and HVAC systems are bulky and complex. They take up space in your home and require an extensive installation of ductwork. One of the best things about a ductless unit is that it is compact in size and can fit anywhere. Also, none of the loud, distracting noise generated by the main portion of the unit reaches the interior of your home.

6. Minimal Maintenance

No more worrying about sealing leaks or cleaning out the debris that makes its way inside ductwork. Simply clean the filters, make sure vents are clear, and keep the area around the outside unit clean to maintain the unit’s airflow.
