Benefits Of Mitsubishi Mini-Split Systems

Most people choose window air conditioners if they don’t have the ductwork to support central air conditioning. But there is an alternative to those loud, inefficient, light-robbing units: a ductless air conditioner.

Also known as mini-split systems, these compact, quiet systems consist of two components that connect through a small pipe in an external wall: the indoor air handler and the outdoor condenser (or heat pump, depending on the model).

A single condenser can handle up to four air handlers, creating customizable cooling zones in your home.

Ductless A/C Advantages

Ductless systems are extremely efficient, with most models having SEER ratings of 20 or more – well more than the required 14 rating (and far higher than window units, which typically run in the 14-15 range).

But efficiency is just one benefit of a mini-split system. You’ll also enjoy improvements in:

• Installation flexibility – Air handlers can be installed wherever you need them and sized to the cooling load of the room where you place them.
• Savings – Ductless systems require less energy to drive and can be arranged so they don’t have to cool unoccupied rooms. Upgrading to a high-efficiency unit can also bring rebates and tax breaks, which can save you even more.
• Air quality – Ductless systems can drastically reduce dust, bacteria, pollen, allergens and other air-borne nasties.
• Ease of use and installation – No more lugging AC units out of storage! Ductless systems install quickly – usually in a day – and require only a small three-inch hole in your wall for piping.
• Environmental performance – Not only are ductless systems more efficient, they also use a refrigerant called R410A – a more ozone-friendly option than yesterday’s Freon.
