An air conditioning option you may not have considered, or even heard of, is a mini-split system. Mini-split systems have been favored in Europe and Asia for quite some time and are becoming continuously popular in the United States. Comparable to a forced central air conditioner they have an outdoor and indoor unit, and periodically with various indoor units.
With the mini-split model of air conditioning you are capable to establish individual zones in your home, with each zone having its own thermostat. This allows you to only cool the areas of your home that are occupied. Many models are able to have four single zones attached to one outdoor unit. The number of zones will be determined by how much cooling is required and how successfully the room is insulated.
Mini-split systems are a successful answer to both your air conditioning and heating needs because they are compact, not noisy and help you thrive in a more comfortable home environment. Not to mention, the economical levels of mini-split systems mean that you’re able to have better control of your home’s comfort while also being mindful of your monthly energy spending.
Mini-splits are smart options for new home additions such as sun rooms. They aren’t noisy like a window unit because, just like a central air conditioner system, the condensing unit is outside. They also have sleek, contemporary designs and don’t block out light from windows like a window unit. There are many different installation options as well, including the ability to have the indoor unit equipped in a ceiling.
Your air conditioning really comes down to what is right for you and your house. If you’d like to discuss if a mini-split system will work for you give our professionals a call at 925-233-6238.
