Can My Home Benefit from Ductless Cooling?

Can My Home Benefit from Ductless Cooling?

When summer arrives, many people start to think about outdoor fun in the sun. Pool parties, barbecues, and beach days are all activities to look forward to once the nice weather arrives. But, cool comfort is always nice to come home to, so having home air conditioning is a priority for many people. While most people know about central air conditioning and portable AC (like window air conditioning units) ductless cooling might be new to them.

Ductless cooling can be a great option for many homeowners, because it can be used in a wide range of applications. What’s more, there are some real benefits to choosing ductless cooling for your home. Ductless systems generally operate using heat pump technology, and that makes for a highly-efficient cooling method. They’re usually quiet, easy to control via remote, and don’t take up living space because they’re mounted high on the wall or ceiling.

Ductless air conditioning can help you get the cooling you need for your home.

While ductless systems can be installed in virtually any home, there are some homeowners who can especially benefit from a ductless system installation. Here are a few situations where ductless cooling can help:

 

  1. You have baseboard heat. Most homes that use baseboard heat don’t have ductwork. That can make installing a central air conditioning system impossible or impractical. With ductless cooling, you don’t need ductwork in your home, and the installation requires minimal construction.
  1. Your home has hot and cold spots. If you have central air but notice some areas of your home are much cooler than others, a ductless system can help balance out your home cooling. This helps you not only stay more comfortable, but can help your central air conditioner not have to work so hard – and operate more efficiently.
  1. You’ve added a space to your home. If you’ve added an addition or seasonal room to your home, it may not have been built with access to your home’s duct system. If this is the case, and you’d like to have air conditioning in those spaces, a ductless cooling system can be very helpful.
  1. You’ve converted an area of your home. Likewise, if you have converted a garage, attic, or basement into a living space, you may want air conditioning in that area. A ductless system can solve that problem easily!
  1. You’d like more efficient cooling. If you’re currently using window AC units or other portable air conditioners, you might not be getting the best energy efficiency possible. According to ENERGY STAR, a ductless cooling system uses up to 30 percent less energy than similar window air conditioning systems – and that can help you save on summer cooling costs.

Ductless systems can help you heat your home, too.

In addition to all the great benefits ductless air conditioning can provide, some ductless models are available that can provide heating during the cooler months as well. That’s especially beneficial for additions and converted spaces that don’t have access to your home’s heating system. And, just like ductless cooling, ductless heating also offers energy-efficient comfort. 

At Trademasters, we can help you choose the best ductless model for your home comfort – and your budget! To learn more about how we can help, simply give Trademasters a call at 703-644-6400 or contact us online. We will be more than happy to assist you.
