All ductless mini-splits work very similarly to a traditional central air conditioning system. They have three main components, which are the indoor air handler units, copper tubing with refrigerant inside, and a condenser unit. In the summertime, the indoor air handler unit will pull in hot air from your home over its evaporator coil. Inside the coil is refrigerant, which is responsible for absorbing heat from the air. The outdoor condenser unit has a compressor that pumps the refrigerant to the outdoor unit. At the condenser unit, the refrigerant releases its heat into the air outdoors.
There are many great benefits you can enjoy from investing in a ductless mini-split system for your home.

Zone temperature control
Non-invasive installation
Heating and cooling in one system
When you decide that a ductless mini-split system is right for your home, it’s now time to determine what units you need. Since each main room of your home will get its own mini-split unit, it’s imperative that you pay close attention to what each room specifically needs. For example, if your living room is much bigger than your bedroom, you’ll need a mini-split with a larger cooling capacity for your living room. Our HVAC technicians can help you determine the appropriate cooling capacity for each room of your home. If you want to get a general ballpark idea for each room, you can multiply its total square footage by 40 BTUs.
Another factor you’ll want to consider is the placement of your units. They can go on the wall, on the floor like a radiator, or on the ceiling where they’re in a discreet location. Typically, it’s going to be the cheapest-to-install wall units and the most expensive ceiling-mounted units.
