Hendersonville, TN Ductless HVAC Systems

How Ductless Heating and Cooling Works

Ductless systems utilize an outdoor unit, similar to that of a conventional heating system, air conditioning system, or heat pump. The ductless mini–split is actually designed much like a heat pump—the refrigerant within it transfers hear from one area to another.

In the summer, ductless air conditioning is achieved as heat is absorbed from the air inside your home and moved to the area around the outside unit as part of a heat exchange process, made possible by a chemical blend called refrigerant. In the winter, the process is reversed.

The Benefits of Going Ductless

One of the main advantages of choosing ductless heating and cooling is how these systems are installed. You do not need to have expansive, and often bulky, ductwork snaking its way through your home. Rather, individual blower units are mounted on various walls of your home instead of just one central blower.

These units are each attached to the outdoor unit by refrigerant lines. Typically, one outdoor unit can accommodate up to 4 indoor units. But should you really choose a ductless system? Consider the benefits we’ve listed below.

• No Need for Home Renovations: If you don’t already have ductwork installed in your Hendersonville, TN home and are looking to upgrade your HVAC system, there’s no need to settle for the disruptive installation of a central unit and air ducts. Rather, ductless mini splits can be installed fairly easily and involve minimal change to your home’s actual structure.
• Highly Efficient: Ductless air conditioning is much more efficient than using portable AC units or room air conditioners—neither of which are subject to the same regulations as ductless units and central cooling and heating systems.
• Effective Cooling and Heating: With a ductless system, you’re provided with both cooling and heating for your entire living space, plus you can control them all from a central thermostat or individual thermostats for each zone, which brings us to…
• Zoning: When you have separate indoor units, you can control each one independently of the others. So if someone is in a bedroom that they want to keep cooler while you’re in the warmer living room, they’ll have that option without making you uncomfortable.
