Bermuda Dunes Ductless Mini-Split Air Conditioning & Heating Systems
What is a Ductless Mini-Split Air Conditioning & Heating System?
How do Ductless Mini-Split Air Conditioning & Heating Systems Work?
A ductless mini-split system works along the same principles as larger, central air conditioning and heating system. Simply put, mini-split systems consist of two parts: an indoor unit and an outside unit. The indoor unit, can be wall-mounted or installed or mounted on the ceiling or floor.
The indoor unit is connected to an outdoor unit containing refrigerant and drains condensation. This outdoor unit acts as a compressor.
The indoor unit has a blower that takes the warm air from the room and blows it over the coils in the outside unit. This removes the heat and the now cooled air, is blown back into the room. In winter, this process is reversed.
Why are Ductless Mini-Split Systems More Energy Efficient?
There are several factors that contribute to a ductless mini-split system being an energy-efficient choice for your Bermuda Dunes home.
Some spaces may be difficult to cool, often the master bedroom is located furthest away from the central air conditioning and heating unit. Because the air has to travel a longer distance through the ductwork, some cooling or heating capacity can be lost over the distance. Older, or poorly sealed ductwork can contribute to this loss.
In most Bermuda Dunes homes, the thermostat is not located in the room or zone furthest away, but closer to where the central AC system is located. Often, the thermostat may be located in a hallway, where there’s a constant flow of cooler air. This means the location of the thermostat will be cooler than the location of the master bedroom, or zone.
So, to compensate, we might set our thermostat to a lower temperature, so these further away rooms or zones are cooled. This means operating the AC unit longer, to accommodate a room or zone. A longer running time means higher electricity consumption.
Unlike the above scenario, a ductless mini-split system is only monitoring the temperature of the room or zone it’s in. Since it only cares about cooling or heating just that space, it does not need to run as long as a central unit. This allows you to have a setting on your central thermostat for the rest of the house, and not run the central AC unit longer just to cool the more challenging spaces.
In addition, because a mini-split system is ductless, it does not suffer from cooling or heating loss through ductwork, and this also lowers the amount of electricity it uses, because it does not have to run longer to achieve the desired temperature.
What Types of Spaces Are Good Candidates for a Ductless Mini-Split System?
Home Additions
Bonus Rooms
Many Bermuda Dunes homes have a three-car garage, with the third garage often referred to as a “bonus room.” Many Bermuda Dunes home owners will convert these into offices, dens, crafting rooms, or even, a guest room. Cooling and heating such a space can be challenging. A ductless mini-split system provides a cost-effective to cool or heat such a space.
Garages and Battery Walls
We see more and more Bermuda Dunes homeowners with solar power considering adding a battery wall to store the excess electricity their solar panels produce. Often, the only available space in the home is in the garage.
In Bermuda Dunes, summer temperatures can be excessive. The temperatures in our garages, with limited air circulation, can be higher than outdoors. A challenge faced is that battery walls do not like excessive heat. High temperatures can degrade battery efficiency.
One option is to run ductwork into the garage and cool it off of the central AC unit. The problem with this is that it adds extra load to the central unit and can drive electricity consumption up.
With this in mind, a mini-split system can be an excellent cost-effective choice for sufficiently cooling a garage to make it an acceptable environment for a battery wall.
