If you are in the market for a way to get your home cooler, you may be looking at all the various options that are available to you. One of the options that may be available to you is a mini split system, also known as a ductless system. A ductless system is a great option for some households, but it is not ideal for everyone. Learning more about this type of AC unit and getting answers to the questions you have will help you determine if it is a good fit for your home. Here is more information about this type of unit. 

What is a Mini Split or Ductless System? 

A mini split system is a split unit that operates independently of the ducts in your house. This helps the system to deliver cool air directly from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit. Multiple indoor units can be installed in various rooms around your house. Ultimately, this allows you to cool only the spaces you need to cool and not worry about the spaces that no one is currently using or occupying. 

Is a Mini Split or Ductless Unit Ideal For My Home? 

If you have hot spots in your home, it is a sign that a traditional air conditioning unit may be struggling to cool that particular space. For example, you may have a sunroom or a room on the second floor of your home that remains hot, no matter how cool the rest of your home gets. A mini split unit is a great choice, as the mini split unit delivers air directly to your trouble spots, and prevents your main unit from continuously running. Ultimately, this can really help give your main unit a break.

What Are the Costs Associated With a Mini Split or Ductless Unit? 

When it comes to a ductless or mini split unit, there is not a one-size-fits-all answer to how much your costs will be. The costs vary, depending on how many indoor units you install. This is because you will need to do some drilling through walls for each unit, and of course, pay for each additional unit. But on average, you can expect to spend about $2500 for a full installation. While that might sound like a lot upfront, it can save you on both your heating and cooling bills in the long run, and help pay for itself.
