SPLIT AC
Split air conditioning systems are
gaining popularity in American homes. Split AC systems are also ideally suited
to additions, where extension of existing ducts may be difficult or
impractical. Ductless split-system air conditioners combine the zone control of
window or through-the-wall units, with the whole-house cooling capabilities of
central systems.
Like central systems, they have two main components, a
compressor-condenser unit (outdoors) and an air-handler containing an evaporator
coil and a fan (indoors.) In milder climates, some systems function as
heat pumps, providing primary heating as well as cooling. The
compressor/condenser section is located outdoors, and the relatively quiet
evaporator/fan unit is located within the indoor space to be cooled. The
two halves are linked only by the coolant tubing.
Ductless mini-split systems solve
the problem of cooling and/or heating a space when adding duct work is
impractical or too expensive. The matched combination of outdoor condenser and
indoor air handler fits virtually anywhere, and is simple to install and
economical to operate.
Mini-Splits are ideal for a wide
range of applications:
Residential
Homes where it's difficult or not desirable to use a window air conditioner, renovations and restorations, additions, sun rooms, bedrooms, workshops, home offices

Installation requires a hole less
than 3" in diameter to run refrigerant lines between indoor and outdoor
units. Also, the indoor section uses low voltage wiring.
There's a
mini-split system to fit just about any installation, from single rooms to
expansive spaces. Our single, dual and tri-zone models offer an impressive
array of capacities in both A/C and heat pump models.

- Easier installation than central systems
- Air ducts not required
- Zone control provides balanced comfort and energy
savings
- Quieter than window or thru-wall units
- More secure than window air conditioners.
- Eliminates losses common in air ducts
