What Makes Ductless AC Different?
At its heart, a ductless air conditioner is no different from a traditional split-system air conditioner; it uses the same cooling cycle and transfers heat in the same manner. However, ductless AC incorporates several key upgrades that massively improve energy efficiency and comfort.
- Variable-Speed Compressors: The compressor is the heart of any air conditioner, but it most air conditioners, it can only run at one or two speeds. If you’ve ever wondered why your air conditioner has to cycle on and off occasionally, that’s because of the limitations of standard compressors. Ductless units use variable-speed compressors to precisely match your home’s cooling needs in real-time, which means less wasted energy and better comfort.
- Direct Cooling: Did you know the average central air conditioner loses about 30 percent of its cooling power to leaks in the duct system? Having your ducts cleaned and sealed can reduce that loss, but there’s no way to stop leaks entirely. Ductless AC sidesteps that problem by delivering cooling power directly to your living spaces.
- Compact Design: While standard air conditioners are bulky and noisy, ductless air conditioning incorporates high-efficiency technology to take up little space and make almost no noise. Moreover, because the system runs continuously, what little noise it does make will quickly fade into the background.
Is It Time To Go Ductless?
The most significant benefit of a ductless air conditioner is its extremely high energy efficiency. If you’re serious about saving as much as possible during the cooling season, there’s no better solution. Ductless systems pay for themselves quickly by reducing your utility bills without sacrificing comfort.
Because of their unique design, ductless units are great for smaller homes, apartments and condominiums where space is at a premium. They’re also an excellent alternative to window units for older homes without duct systems, or for new additions and renovations where it would be impractical to extend the duct system into the new space.
