The benefits of installing a split-system
Split systems can make even cooling and heating of space easy and comfortable. Useful for a single space or multiple rooms such as garages, porches, or sunrooms, split systems are an efficient and simple way to manage temperatures inside a given area. 24SevenHVAC, an HVAC company, discusses the benefits of getting mini-splits installed in a property.
Mini-splits are often used in multifamily housing or as retrofit add-ons to houses with "non-ducted" heating systems, such as hydronic and space heaters. They are also a smart choice for room additions and small apartments, where extending or installing distribution ductwork for a central air-conditioner is not possible.
Advantages of split systems
- Zoning: Split systems offer great flexibility for zoning and cooling individual rooms. The entire space can be split into zones with their thermostat enabling complete control over the cooling of zones. With split systems, owners can save money and energy by limiting cooling to specific areas as per need, unlike traditional ACs with one thermostat that cools the entire space irrespective of need.
- Easy installation: A split system requires much less effort to install compared to other types of air conditioning systems.
Split systems require no ductwork and need only 3 inches of opening to connect the indoor and outdoor unit. It also allows the outdoor and indoor units to be up to 100 feet apart, allowing cooling in all parts of the building without placing the outdoor unit in a conspicuous location.
- Energy efficiency: Due to the absence of ducts, split systems avoid energy losses. Traditional air conditioners with ducts lose 30% in cooling energy due to leaks and lack of insulation.
- Flexible interior design: In split systems, the indoor air handlers can be suspended from a ceiling, mounted flush into a drop ceiling, or hung on a wall. These systems can be controlled via remote for easy use. Floor-standing models and models with elegant and sophisticated jackets are also available in the market.
Split systems are generally less obtrusive when compared to window units that require the installers to cut a hole in a wall or dedicate a window to the traditional air conditioner.
- Quiet operations: Without ducts, split systems can operate as silently as 19 decibels, which is much quieter than a window unit. The ductless condenser, being much slimmer in profile, makes it easy to be positioned in various locations according to noise and space factors.
- Increased security: A window unit requires a window space or a big hole in the wall and therefore offers an opening to intruders. A split system air conditioner offers a lot more security because it only needs a small hole for the conduit.
