WHAT IS A DUCTLESS SPLIT SYSTEM?

Ductless split systems are popular in multifamily homes and commercial buildings, but lately, they have become increasingly common in single-family homes. Similar to central heating and cooling systems, ductless split systems have an outdoor compressor component and multiple indoor air handling units. The simple conduit, containing refrigerant and electrical lines, connects the indoor and outdoor components. This design makes installation fast, affordable, and convenient. All that is needed is a 3-inch hole drilled in your wall to connect the components. Because there’s no need for ductwork, the indoor air handling units create zone control heating and cooling and prevent air loss through ductwork.

BENEFITS OF A DUCTLESS SPLIT SYSTEM

There are many benefits to a ductless split system. The installation process is relatively simple, and they are easy to maintain. If you are looking for a professional heating and air conditioning company to install one of these systems, call Alex's AC and Heat. We can help you decide whether going ductless is right for you. For instance, if your home cannot accommodate ductwork, a ductless system will allow you to enjoy the comfort of a central system with an efficient alternative.

With the use of multiple thermostats, ductless split systems also make creating individually controlled temperature zones simple. This is a great way to keep everyone in the house happy while also boosting your energy efficiency. Zoning allows you to heat or cool only those rooms you want to the desired degree.
