Air handlers for this type of HVAC unit are typically wall-mounted and connected to a small outdoor unit. The number of units you need will depend on the configuration of your house, and the size of the rooms.
Because there are multiple units, these systems allow you to control the temperature in each room or zone individually. This independant control means you can reduce energy usage by limiting heating/cooling supplied to areas that aren’t often used.
Mini-split systems are suitable for new construction or to replace an old heater/air conditioner. They are often used to retrofit homes/rooms where it is difficult or expensive to run new ductwork. These systems are typically not used as the primary heating and cooling unit in large homes (1500+ sq. ft.), but may be used to supplement an existing HVAC unit. For example, heating/cooling a garage or add-on room. Mini-splits can be used as the main system for homes less than 1500 sq. ft.
You can install a complete ductless heating and cooling system, or an air conditioner or heat pump individually. We provide free estimates:
