Ductless Mini-Split Installation

While less common than other heating and cooling systems, ductless air conditioning could be right for your Palm Springs home. Mini-split systems are especially popular for:

• Adding air conditioning to older homes without ductwork
• Eliminating hot and cold spots throughout the house
• Introducing heating and cooling to rooms without central air, including the attic, garage, sun room, or home addition
• Upgrading old HVAC equipment to something more versatile and efficient

Ductless Mini-Split Maintenance

Routine maintenance is the best way to keep any HVAC system running smoothly, including ductless AC units. Some tasks are easy to perform, such as replacing or cleaning the filter and keeping the outdoor unit free of obstructions. Other tasks require the skills, tools, and knowledge of a trained technician.

FAQ About Ductless Mini-Split Systems

Most people are familiar with central air conditioners and furnaces, but these systems aren’t right for every situation. As you consider your home heating and cooling needs, find the answers to your questions about ductless mini-splits here.

What is a ductless mini-split system?

A ductless unit consists of an indoor wall-mounted air handler and an outdoor compressor, which are connected through a small hole in the wall. The system provides both heating and cooling, similar to a central heat pump. The big difference, as the name suggests, is that a ductless mini-split delivers conditioned air without ductwork.

How does a ductless mini-split system work?

In the summer, a mini-split AC removes heat from the air and exhausts it outside. In the winter, it runs in reverse, extracting heat from outdoor air and venting it to the interior. Mini-splits work best in warm climates where the temperature usually stays above freezing, making it ideal for the Palm Springs area.

What are the benefits of ductless mini-splits?

There are many reasons to upgrade to a ductless AC:

• Affordable installation with no need to install ductwork
• Quiet, inconspicuous operation without blocking a window
• Year-round comfort with heating and cooling capabilities
• More even temperatures in every room
• Zoning options with the ability to link four indoor air handlers to a single outdoor compressor
• Superior energy efficiency since no air is lost because of leaky ductwork
