Memphis, TN Ductless HVAC & Mini Splits
Not all homes can use a standard central air conditioning system with ducts. Older homes often lack ductwork and converting to add ducts is often expensive and intrusive. But instead of turning to inefficient and ugly window air conditioning systems, these homes have the option for a ductless HVAC installation. Going ductless is not only an option for older homes, since ductless systems (a.k.a. ductless mini split heat pumps) offer several benefits for homeowners, such as also working as heating systems on top of working perfectly as an air conditioner.

Ductless HVAC Installation—How It Can Benefit You
We already mentioned how a ductless mini split heat pump can take the place of outdated window units. A ductless HVAC system sends cooled and heated air straight into a room with a series of small air handler units mounted up on the walls. Each air handler connects through a small hole in the wall behind it to an outside unit that houses the compressor. Some of the advantages of this type of heat pump include:
- Space saving: Ductless HVAC systems are perfect for older homes because they don’t require space-consuming ductwork. They also work for new home construction and remodeling because they take ducts out of the equation from the start.
- Energy efficient: Because ductless mini splits don’t lose or gain heat through the walls of ducts, they work at higher energy efficiency than conventional central heat pumps.
- Zone control: Each air handler can be operated separately from the others with its own remote control. Only heat and cool the rooms that need it.
- Add-on rooms: A ductless mini split can solve the trouble of heating and cooling and add-on rooms. There’s no need to alter the rest of the home’s HVAC system.
Ductless systems are also easy to care for when parts break down. If one of the indoor air handlers fails, you won’t need to do a full ductless HVAC replacement, only replace the broken unit. And when the day comes when the system is too old, you can count on us for a complete ductless HVAC replacement.
