As the name implies, a ductless system is a heating & cooling system that doesn\u2019t rely on a network of ducts. Rather, it utilizes one outdoor condenser unit, which is connected via refrigerant lines to air handlers that are installed throughout the living space.<\/p>\n
A ductless system works similarly to an air conditioner, moving heat from one place to another. A reversing valve is all that\u2019s needed to switch the flow of refrigerant, allowing for summertime cooling and wintertime heating. To cool the home, heat is absorbed from indoors and moved outside, and to heat the home, heat is absorbed from the outside and moved indoors. This provides a variety of benefits, including:<\/p>\n
Since a ductless heating and cooling system can both heat and cool your home, it allows for year-round comfort. Just with the flip of a switch, the system can go from cooling mode to heating mode, and vice versa.<\/p>\n
Installing ductwork, or repairing it if you already have it in place, is a big job. Without this ductwork, you\u2019ll save space in your home, as the system uses a small outdoor unit and up to 4 indoor air handlers that are mounted high up on the walls of each of the rooms you want them in, out of your way.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the elimination of ductwork means the elimination of common indoor air quality problems that they introduce.<\/p>\n
Ductless systems operate on less electrical power than other systems. Additionally, they work more efficiently than other heaters in the wintertime, because instead of using power to generate heat, they transfer <\/em>heat.<\/p>\n Are you looking to install a ductless heat pump in Eugene, OR<\/a>?
