Have you heard of ductless air conditioning? Not a lot of people of have heard of it. It is an air conditioning unit that does not have any ductwork. These devices are quiet compared to other units and they are very efficient. Another name for these units is the mini-split system.
Ductless air conditioning units have been around for quite awhile. Indoor units mount on an outside interior wall. A small hole is made in the wall to allow the refrigerant piping, condensation drain and wiring access. The outside unit is compact and can be mounted anywhere on the outside wall as long as it within around fifty feet for the smaller units and around one hundred and fifty feet for the larger units. The length depends on the specific make and model of the unit.
One of the best features of these units is there ability to remove the moisture from the room. One feature that seems to impress owners of ductless air conditioning units is that the unit is permanently mounted inside. This means you know longer have to install it and remove it from a window, which can be quite awkward at times.
The design of these units is quite sleek and attractive. They blend in well in most rooms. They are not bulky and ugly like most window installed units. Ductless air conditioning units are similar to central air systems in that the compressor is outside the house. This eliminates much of the noise from the home or office.
These devices also feature a variable quiet blower and a thermostatic control as well. A wireless remote LCD hand control allows for easy operation. These units are also quite energy efficient. They usually operate with a SEER rating of 10 to 11.
In conclusion, ductless air conditioning units are not for everyone. Check with your local air conditioner dealer and find out what the installation costs are. These may vary depending on the size of the unit and the brand of the unit as well.
