Ductless mini-splits are an excellent solution for heating and cooling areas that a traditional ducted system can’t reach, such as finished basements, sheds, garages, living rooms, and new additions. These systems don’t require ducts and are called “mini” because they are smaller than conventional HVAC units. They are “split” between an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. Each indoor unit is designed to heat or cool a specific room or area. Ductless mini-splits are known for being more efficient and quieter than traditional systems. With proper installation and maintenance, these systems can last 10-15 years.
