If you’d like to stay cool in the summer, consider installing a mini split system in your home. Mini splits provide cool air to different rooms and zones in your house. But that’s just the beginning. Here are five benefits of installing a mini split in your home.

Easy Installation

Mini splits are easy to install. If you lack ductwork in your home, ductless mini splits don’t demand the addition of ducts throughout the house or a large central unit that takes up basement, attic, or outdoor space.

You can get mini splits installed within a day and they require no more than a small hole drilled in the wall to reach a reasonably sized outdoor compressor/condenser. They’re ideal for older homes as well, and don’t demand extensive additions or risk potential damage to the walls, ceilings, and floors.

Energy and Cost-Savings

As self-contained units, ductless mini splits don’t experience the energy loss of ducted systems which can leak cool air and cost you money. Mini splits focus on specific rooms or zones as well, which means you’re not wasting energy elsewhere in unoccupied areas.

Mini splits are excellent in energy efficiency, often having SEER ratings of 14 and above. By keeping your electricity bills down, they’ll practically pay for themselves during the hottest months of the year.

Reduce Humidity

Mini splits reduce humidity in large areas—even more than dehumidifiers. Some mini splits have a dry mode setting that removes humidity from the air and drains it away from the home.

Most mini splits, however, maintain a process of cycling air through their systems capturing and condensing the moisture in the air and lowering the overall humidity. Also, low humidity means less unsightly condensation forming on the windows and less opportunity for mold and mildew to grow indoors.

Fresh, Clean Air

Have concerns about a resident with allergies, asthma, or another respiratory issue? Most mini splits contain filtration systems that remove dust, debris, allergens, dander, pet hair, and other noxious particles before releasing cleaner air back into the room.

Mini splits will keep things smelling fresher as well, and with periodic filter cleaning they continue to provide fresh air for years to come.

Quiet Cooling

Mini splits, unlike clunkier centra-air units, are much quieter in operation. They operate throughout the day and night with minimal noise and fuss, and since the condenser-compressor resides outdoors, the bulk of the noise flows that direction.

If you prefer cool air and untroubled sleep and relaxation indoors, a mini split brings peace and quiet to your lifestyle.

These are just five benefits of installing a mini split in your home. Consider them before the temperatures start to rise in your area.
