Do You Know How Ductless Mini-Splits Work?

Ductless mini-split systems can provide added comfort in every area of your Corona Hills, California, home or business. Understanding how these systems work can allow you to use mini-splits more effectively. You’ll be able to create temperature control zoning solutions that provide the most comfortable temperatures. Here is some important information that will help you to understand how ductless mini-splits can improve air conditioning comfort.

The Basics of Ductless Systems

Mini-split AC systems consist of two separate parts that work together to heat or cool a specific area of a building. The indoor section contains evaporator coils and a fan to blow air over these coils. The outside unit consists of a condenser (compressor) that pressurizes refrigerant to extract heat. It then releases the heat outdoors. In a traditional central HVAC system, the air produced goes through ductwork to the various rooms. Ductless mini-splits, however, do not use ducts and provide air conditioning directly to individual rooms and areas.

Benefits of Mini-Split AC Systems

The experts at the U.S. Department of Energy recommend ductless mini-split systems for a number of reasons, including:

• Using ductless systems to configure multiple temperature zones with a single outdoor unit. This makes it easy to set preferred temperatures in specific areas of your home or commercial building.
• Mini-splits are easy to install and require only a small hole drilled into an external wall to connect the indoor and outdoor units.
• Removing ducts from the equation reduces energy loss and can result in lower utility bills. Ductless AC systems are a cost-effective choice for residential and commercial properties.

Opting for these advanced AC systems gives you a flexible solution for improving your indoor comfort. With a ductless mini-split, you can manage HVAC-related energy costs throughout the year.
