What Is a Ductless Mini-Split System?

It's an efficient way to control the temperature in individual rooms, without affecting the other parts of the building.

The Benefits of Ductless Mini-Splits
Ductless mini-split systems are becoming increasingly popular in both residential and commercial settings as they offer several benefits over traditional HVAC systems. They are similar to a window AC unit in that each indoor unit is designed to cool a single room or space, but they operate like a traditional air conditioner with an outside condenser unit. This design eliminates the need for ductwork, making them a convenient and efficient solution for temperature control.
A few of the advantages homeowners gain by installing ductless mini-splits include:
- Energy efficiency – Ductless mini-splits don't have duct losses, meaning that the conditioned air is directly delivered to the room without being lost in the ducts.
- Zoning – Allows for temperature control in individual rooms or areas, reducing overall energy consumption.
- Flexibility – Can be easily installed in retrofits and additions, where adding ductwork is difficult.
- Improved air quality – The air handling unit is located inside the room, preventing air pollution and reducing the spread of pollutants.
- Quiet operation – Outdoor units operate quietly, reducing noise pollution.
- Cost-effective – Mini-splits are generally cheaper to install than central HVAC systems with ducts.
While mini splits can be a flexible and affordable option for certain applications, it's important to consider factors such as efficiency, indoor air quality, and system size when choosing a system that fits your specific needs. It's recommended to consult with a licensed HVAC technician to assess your requirements and recommend the best system for your situation.

How Does a Ductless Mini-Split Work?
A ductless mini-split works by circulating refrigerant between an outdoor and indoor unit. The outdoor unit contains a compressor, and the indoor unit has an evaporator.
These components work together as follows:
- The compressor pumps refrigerant from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit
- The refrigerant then evaporates in the indoor unit, absorbing heat from the room
- The cooled refrigerant is then pumped back to the outdoor unit, where it is condensed and the heat is released to the outside
- The cooled refrigerant then returns to the indoor unit to repeat the process
This continuous cycle allows for efficient heating or cooling of the room, depending on the mode of operation. The system is controlled by a thermostat and operated by a remote control.
