With fall just beginning, it is important to consider what winter will mean for you and your current HVAC system. After months of putting your air conditioner to work, it is now time to think more about your heating system and whether or not it is adequately satisfying your needs. With just a few months remaining before temperatures drop, now is the perfect time to install a ductless HVAC system for winter. This option will surely keep your home comfortably warm until spring, and with many other benefits, this could be the best system for you.

General Troubleshooting

Also known as a ductless mini-split system or ductless heat pump, a ductless HVAC system is made of two individual units. There is one indoor wall-mounted unit which is responsible for pumping air into your home, and an outdoor condensing unit. Without the need for ductwork, installation becomes a breeze. A simple hole drilled in the wall is all that is needed in a majority of cases.

Beyond the installation process, ductless HVAC systems offer a large number of benefits. They are extremely energy-efficient, especially when compared to other options. Without complicated ductwork, air is delivered directly to your space with very few chances for leakage. These units are also less noisy than their counterparts, making for a more quiet and peaceful environment. They are also less noticeable visually, as many units are small/compact and can be placed almost anywhere in the home.

Ductless HVAC systems are ideal in a variety of situations. For starters, these units make targeting specific rooms a possibility. If you have rooms that are not constantly in use, such as spare rooms, you can direct your heating to specific units and warm specific rooms. This will cut back on your energy bill while still delivering excellent results.

Things to Consider Before Installation

While a ductless HVAC system will surely keep you warm in the winter, there are some important things to consider in advance. Initial installation costs can often be higher than that of other units, though as discussed this will quickly be canceled out by energy savings. Another notable thing is that ductless HVAC systems need to be cleaned and maintained on a regular basis, including regular filter cleaning. At Robillard HVAC, we will gladly assist you with this process. Our experts are always available for regular maintenance to keep things running as smoothly as possible.

The one other common concern for many with ductless HVAC systems is aesthetics, as many initially fear that the physical units will stand out too much (when compared to ductwork and vents). However, many report that they quickly forget the unit is even there after installation. Ductless HVAC systems tend to be some of the least invasive options, and can quickly fade into the background of your living space.

Why You Should Go Ductless

Going ductless is an excellent option for improving your heating and cooling system, all with the added benefit of a streamlined installation process. With this option you can be assured that your fall and winter will be warm and comfortable while you reap the benefits of lower costs.
