The Mini Split Heat Pumps

If you have recently has added a room to your house or office or if you have transferred to an apartment with no installed heat pumps, then you may opt for mini split heat pumps. These are miniaturized ductless heat pumps that are split in two components for enhanced function. Similar to standard air-source heat pumps, these have outdoor compressor-condenser units and indoor air-handling units which are linked with a conduit, which houses the suction tubing, refrigerant tubing, power cable, and a condensate drain.

The advantage of mini split heat pumps are their miniaturized size that can be feasible in heating or cooling any zone or room. Each zone has its own thermostat that the air conditioner works only when someone occupies the room, saving energy and of course, money! Further, you can save energy and money as these heat pumps are ductless. This means that there is no loss of energy associated with ductwork of central forced air systems. According to research, such duct-related energy loss accounts for 30% and more energy consumption.

Installing mini split systems has advantage too. They are easier to install than other types of space conditioning systems. These are good for interior d
