Advantages of Ductless Heat Pumps

With the sweltering summers and frosty winters that often characterize the New England climate, your heating and cooling needs are versatile. You'll want maximum options in kind. Have you ever considered a ductless heat pump system?

Customers seek this handy alternative for many reasons, whether they are adding a new renovation to their home, downsizing, or inhabiting a home without a duct system. Whatever the reason for your curiosity, the potential benefits of a ductless heat pump system are abundant.

For starters, they are energy efficient. A ductless heating and cooling system leverages refrigerator piping technology that can reduce your energy output by as much as one-third in comparison to other systems. The duct systems used in central heating and cooling often lose oodles of energy, especially when ducts occupy attics. Without those energy-leaking ducts, your energy bill won't be leaking quite as many dollars and cents. In the process, you can lay claim to reducing that dreaded carbon footprint as well.

For those of you concerned about the aesthetics of a bulky HVAC system, the ductless HVAC system may be your go-to option. The compact size of the units makes them less obtrusive than other AC and heating units. They also afford more flexibility as to where you may place them within the home; with ceiling, wall, and floor fixtures among popular options. Even the outdoor handling units of these systems may be placed some distance away from the indoor component, enabling installation in a location largely hidden from view in most cases.

Do you share living quarters with someone who's breaking out the sweaters and blankets while you're looking for a little icy relief from the fridge? With a ductless heating and cooling unit, you may finally call that long-awaited truce in the War of the Thermostats. Both ductless heat pumps and a ductless mini split allow you mastery of your temperature domain, with the use of individualized remote thermostats in each living space. As a result, you get independent temperature control systems and thermostats in multiple rooms. So go ahead, and make a room as toasty or as cool as you want.

Even the prospect of heating and cooling installation is enough to give many people headaches. A ductless heat pump system can cut time and money costs significantly. Often, just a single drilled hole can connect your indoor and outdoor systems with ease. You won't need to balance space heaters with finicky window AC units. You can get a unit that enables heating and cooling in one adaptable system. Better yet, you're saved from the teeth-on-edge humming and clattering often synonymous with traditional AC units.

If the noise quality upgrade doesn't sell you quite yet, consider the uptick in air quality you could experience with finely tuned humidity levels.
