The short answer to the question above is: in a number of ways! If you’ve followed our blog at all, you know that we are big proponents of ductless mini split systems around here. Today, we want to narrow our focus on the benefits of ductless mini splits to look specifically at the ways in which using this type of system can save you money. The only thing better than living comfortably, after all, is paying less to do so! When you schedule your ductless mini split services with our team, you can enjoy great comfort at a great price.
Zone Control
You can use zone control systems with a forced air cooling system, such as a traditional heat pump or a central air conditioner. However, it is typically an upgrade that homeowners choose to make. It is not part and parcel with the system. When you choose a ductless mini split air conditioner, though, you get zone control as part of the package. The individual blower heads are all controlled independently of another, allowing you to maintain different temperatures in different areas.
No Leaks
Air ducts are a fine means by which to distribute conditioned air throughout a home — provided that they are in great working condition. If not, then your system is going to waste energy as it makes up for air losses through the ductwork. By eliminating the ductwork from the system entirely, you eliminate the risk of any such problems.
Heat Transfer
Because ductless mini splits are heat pumps, that means that you can both heat and cool your home with the same system. You also heat your home with outstanding efficiency! By making use of ambient heat in the air outside, you eliminate the need for generating new heat when warming your home.
