Advantages of Duct Free Split Systems
For the most part, ductless air conditioners and heat pumps use the same cooling cycle as any other climate control system. However, these advanced units have several key advantages over traditional split systems.
- Variable-Speed Compressors: The compressor is the essential component of an air conditioner that converts gaseous refrigerant into liquid form, releasing heat outside the house. Most air conditioners have to cycle on and off occasionally because their compressors run at only one or two speeds. Ductless systems use state-of-the-art variable-speed compressors to run continuously, improving energy efficiency and eliminating uncomfortable temperature changes.
- Efficient Design: The average central air conditioner loses around 30 percent of its cooling power to leaks in the ducts. Ductless systems, for obvious reasons, do not have that problem. Moreover, a ductless air conditioner allows for zoned control, saving even more energy.
- Unobtrusive: Ductless units are compact and sit high and out of sight on interior walls. They also run almost silently.
These advantages make ductless systems ideal for smaller homes, condominiums and apartments where space is at a premium. The energy efficiency of ductless systems is ideal for any homeowner who cares about the environment or just wants to save money.
