Ductless, It’s Just The Way To Go.
Many have asked what exactly “Ductless” heating and air conditioning units are, and how they work. So, here are some simple answers to help you make a simple and money saving decision for your future heating and air conditioning needs.
A ductless heat pump is a cost effective alternative to central air conditioning. Unlike central air conditioners these ductless systems (also called mini splits) are duct-free. Ductless heat pumps are efficient and distribute the air evenly throughout your home. They move air directly without losing energy to heat ductwork or letting air escape in the ducts. The results are energy savings.
Ductless heat pumps offer greater flexibility for heating open spaces in your home or business. It is a great solution for homes, room additions, garages, and bonus rooms, and they can easily replace baseboard heaters, zone heating systems, wood stoves and space heaters used to supplement the heat in key areas of the home. With a multi zone system, each zone of your home or office operates independently through its own control system, so people in different rooms can set the temperature at a level that keeps them the most comfortable. Since each of the ductless heat pump zones will have an individual thermostat, only that area where someone is present needs to be conditioned saving additional energy and money.
A ductless heat pump is easily installed and is usually completed in less than a day and has very little impact to your home. The ductless system has two main components: an outdoor unit or compressor/condenser and an indoor unit. The hook-up between the outdoor and indoor units generally requires only a three inch hole through a wall for the connecting pipe, electrical and drain lines.
The outdoor unit is connected to an indoor unit mounted on the wall, on the floor or in the ceiling.
The indoor units are quieter than a standard domestic fan. In comparison to other systems, ductless heat pumps offer more flexibility in interior design options. The indoor units are designed to blend harmoniously with your home and office interiors.
A remote control easily adjusts your setting to maximize the efficiency and comfort.”

The Difference Of Ductless.
SIMPLE
- One system with heating and cooling
- No ducting
- Quick and easy installation
- The power to control the temperature in any room of your home
- Long term solution, good for new additions or when replacing existing air conditioner
- The pump operates quietly both indoors and outdoors
CLEAN
- Air purifying filters: Ductless heat pumps offer multi-stage filtration that can drastically reduce dust, bacteria, pollen, allergens and other particulates in the air.
- Lowers your carbon footprint: Energy efficient, environmentally friendly and completely customizable. Ductless heat pumps use a refrigerant called R410A, which is known for its zero ozone depletion potential. Ductless heat pumps follow ENERGY STAR guidelines, which means they are far more energy efficient than the minimum standards set forth by the U.S. federal government. They are both efficient at saving you money and reducing your total carbon output.
EFFICIENT
- Save money on electric bills. They do not waste energy starting and stopping all day like traditional heat pumps
- Up to 40 percent more efficient than window air conditioners
- No energy is wasted cooling or heating unoccupied rooms
- Easy, low cost installation
- Incentive opportunities: Our systems are ENERGY STAR qualified and may be eligible for federal and state tax credits or local utility rebates
