How a Ductless Mini-Split System Works
A ductless mini-split comprises two main components-an outdoor unit, which houses the compressor and condenser, and one or more indoor units, which are mounted on the walls of the rooms or areas to be conditioned. These indoor and outdoor units are connected by a conduit.
Unlike traditional HVAC systems that rely on ducts to distribute air, ductless mini-splits deliver air directly into the designated zones of your property.
The Benefits of Installing a Ductless Mini-Split System
Energy efficiency: By avoiding the energy losses that are typical in ducted systems, ductless mini-splits operate with higher efficiency, hopefully reducing your monthly energy bills.
Customized comfort: Each indoor unit can be controlled independently, allowing for personalized temperature settings in different zones or rooms.
Quiet operation: Ductless mini-splits are known for their quiet performance, delivering a peaceful indoor environment that is free of the noise associated with traditional HVAC systems.
Easy installation: The compact size and flexibility of ductless mini-splits allow for installation in various locations on your property.
Improved air quality: With advanced filtration features, ductless mini-splits help reduce dust, bacteria, pollen, and other allergens, leading to healthier air for all who live or work on the property.
Aesthetic design: Modern ductless units come in sleek, compact designs that can blend seamlessly with your home’s interior and can be considerably more attractive than bulky window units or visible ductwork.
The Signs Your Ductless Mini-Split System Needs Repair
Even the most reliable ductless mini-split systems can encounter issues that need professional attention. Acting swiftly when you notice these signs can prevent more severe damage and potentially save you money.
Be on the lookout for these red flags:
Decreased cooling or heating efficiency: If your system no longer maintains the desired temperature, it could be a sign of an underlying issue.
Unusual noises: Grinding, buzzing, or whistling noises coming from the indoor or outdoor units are not normal and should be inspected by one of our professionals.
Ice buildup on the outdoor unit: While some frost is normal in colder weather, excessive ice buildup could indicate a problem with the system's defrost cycle.
Water leaks: Ductless units should not leak water inside your home. This could be a sign of a blocked condensate line or other issues.
Error codes: Many ductless systems have built-in diagnostics. If you see flashing lights or error codes on the indoor unit, give us a call.
Foul odors: Musty or burning smells emanating from your unit could indicate mold growth or electrical problems. The former is a risk to air quality and your property, while the latter is a serious fire hazard.
