Ductless/Hybrid Mini-Split Systems

Mini-split heating and cooling units let you regulate the temperature in specific rooms or areas. An indoor air-handling unit and an outdoor compressor/condenser are the two primary parts of a mini-split system (evaporator). They are simple to install, typically requiring only a three-inch hole in the wall for the conduit that holds the copper tubing, condensation drain line, and power and communication cables connecting the outdoor and inside units. Mini-split heat pumps are excellent retrofit additions to homes with "non-ducted" heating systems, such as hydronic (hot water heat), radiant panels, and space heaters. They are not only excellent alternatives for entire homes or new buildings (wood, kerosene, propane). They can also be a viable option for room extensions where it is impractical to extend or build distribution ducting and for energy-efficient new homes that only need a modest space conditioning system.
