Sometimes referred to as “ductless air conditioning,” a ductless mini split system offers a flexible HVAC solution that provides targeted heating and cooling to specific rooms or areas of your home. Unlike traditional central air systems, mini splits don’t require extensive ductwork. This makes them an ideal option for homes without pre-existing ducts, such as older homes or newly renovated spaces.

Each system consists of two main components: an outdoor compressor unit, which serves as the core for heating and cooling, and indoor air-handling units that are typically mounted on walls or ceilings in the rooms needing temperature control. The simplicity of this system allows for versatile installation options. You also get the benefit of being able to heat or cool specific areas without wasting energy on unused rooms.
