air conditioning without the ductwork: efficient and modern ductless options
The technology used to develop new solutions to common HVAC challenges continues to advance in innovative new ways that reshape the spectrum of options homeowners have when updating or replacing their home comfort systems. One of the most versatile modern developments in air conditioning is the ductless mini-split system. Mini-split systems have several benefits, which make it the best choice for many homeowners whose other options previously consisted only of major construction renovations or individual window unit air conditioners. Weaver Energy has numerous satisfied customers who have opted to have Fujitsu mini-split systems installed in their homes, and it’s easy to see why:
- Mini-splits require no pre-existing or new ductwork, as the refrigerant is circulated through each room via thin copper tubing that is connected to an outdoor unit. The copper tubing runs discreetly through a small three-inch or four-inch opening in the wall to the indoor unit. Installation is completed in a fraction of the time because of the design of these components. For buildings with existing ductwork, there are also plenty of ducted mini-split options to meet the needs of any home.
- Fujitsu mini-splits are also heat pumps, giving these units the benefits of both heating and cooling capabilities.
- Several indoor units can be connected to a single outdoor unit, allowing for multiple different zones with their own unique temperature control and schedule.
- The indoor units are available in a variety of sizes and styles (ceiling cassette, floor mount, wall mount, etc.) to suit all space and décor needs.
- Mini-splits are highly energy efficient and can reduce energy bills by up to 24%. Some mini-splits have Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) ratings up to a 33 SEER. Without the energy that is lost in traditional ductwork in attics in walls, mini-splits have a great advantage.
- Weaver Energy is a Fujitsu Elite dealer, which grants our customers an additional two years of warranty on all Fujitsu mini-split units that we install.
There are many other benefits to choosing a mini-split system, from its quiet operation, to its proven reliability.
