Can Ductless Mini Split Air Conditioning Save You Money? YES — and Here’s How

mini split air conditioner

If you’re constructing a new home, adding an addition to your house, or wanting a supplement to your radiator or electric baseboard heating, you may have heard of ductless air conditioners, or ductless mini splits. These ductless mini split systems are gaining popularity across the United States because they save homeowners money.

But how exactly do they save you money? Ductless mini split air conditioning units have simple installations and drive down energy costs. Here is a more in-depth look into how these systems can save you money.

No Ductwork

If you’ve lived in a home with a central air conditioning system, you know that these systems use ductwork to circulate air throughout the house. Ductless mini splits, on the other hand, do not utilize ducts. Instead, they use individual units to direct cool or warm air to spaces. A home could have more than one of these air handling units installed indoors, keeping the house cool or warm without the installation of additional ductwork.

According to Energy Star, 20-30% of air is lost due to duct leaks or improper ductwork installation. By installing ductless mini splits instead of central air conditioners, you could see up to 30% of savings because you will not have to worry about your system overworking to compensate for the lost air.

Simple Installation

Because ductless mini split units do not need duct systems to be installed, installation is simple and more cost-effective. You can have these ductless systems installed in new home additions, garages, finished basements, or anywhere else central air conditioning does not reach. You will not have to worry about these AC units driving up heating and cooling costs or stealing the air from the rest of your home.

The Unit Delivers Both Heating and Cooling

People in older homes are especially interested in ductless mini split units because they offer both heating and cooling in one system. The heating pump and the air conditioner circulate air between the indoors and outdoors, creating a system that is high in energy efficiency. 

Direct Heat and Cool Air to Specific Rooms

One of the greatest advantages to this type of heating and cooling system is that air can be directed to specific rooms or areas of the house. Rooms are grouped into zones, and each zone has its own thermostat. You can see significant savings on energy by heating or cooling only the areas of your home that you are using. 

Saving Big with Ductless Mini Splits

Heating and cooling your home can have a significant impact on your bank account, but the good news is that a new system has emerged that can save you money. If you’re ready to create a greener home, then install an energy-efficient ductless mini split system.
