Built to Withstand the Extreme Desert Temperatures

Ductless Systems, also referred to as Mini Splits, make a great option for a new room addition where existing ductwork has not been installed. They are also ideal for heating and cooling small spaces like a single room or supplementing your current AC system. Ductless is also becoming more popular as a replacement to central air conditioning systems due to it’s super energy efficiency and the ability to zone areas of the home with different temperatures. Precision Air & Plumbing offers the high quality Daikin line, which provides a zoning solution that will give you total control over the comfort of each area fitted with a Daikin ductless unit.

Whether you opt for central air or a ductless system, it’s an investment. We encourage you to do plenty of research before making your decision. Initial cost is a major factor, of course, but it pays to consider long-term costs as well. At the same time, you should think about the indoor comfort needs of you and your family. You may think that central air conditioning is the way to go, but you shouldn’t dismiss ductless without learning what it’s about and what it can do for you.

Like central air conditioning systems, ductless options have indoor and outdoor components, but they aren’t built into existing forced-air systems. Outdoor units are usually mounted on outside walls, but they may also be installed farther away if necessary. Depending on the heating and cooling needs of a home, more than one outdoor unit may be needed. Similarly, there are one or more indoor air-handling units. These units may be mounted high on walls, on ceilings or on floors.

While the initial cost of having a ductless system installed tends to be higher, ductless systems are much more energy efficient than central air conditioners, so you will spend a lot less to keep your home comfortable over time and should recoup your investment with ease.

The Benefits of a Ductless System

• Flexibility – Ductless units can be installed in a variety of places so that heated and cooled air is limited to specific parts of the home, which creates superior comfort and results in lower energy bills.
• Heating and Cooling – In areas where temperatures rarely or never dip below about 20 degrees Fahrenheit, ductless systems can heat homes as well as cool them with reversible heat pumps that move warm air in either direction.
• Zoned Comfort – By opting for a multi-split ductless system, you can set different temperatures in different rooms, resulting in significant energy savings.
• Less Energy Loss – With a central air conditioning system, cooled air has to travel through ducts to get where it needs to go resulting in energy losses of up to 30%. Ductless systems eliminate this issue entirely.
• Simple Installation – As long as it’s performed by an authorized and experienced contractor, ductless air conditioning installation is a snap. Our experienced technicians determine the appropriate places to mount indoor air handlers and perform load calculations to ensure the equipment has the right capacity.
• Design – While it’s necessary to have indoor units installed to deliver cooled and heated air to specific rooms, the newer high-quality ductless systems have compact, low-profile indoor units that do little to detract from interior decor.
