Ductless Systems
You may have heard about ductless heating and cooling systems, but do you know about their advantages?
A Flexible Solution
The most common HVAC systems are central air conditioners and heat pumps that use ducts to deliver conditioned air throughout a building.
Ductless systems are more flexible than traditional systems, because ductless systems don’t use ductwork. All that’s needed is a small outdoor unit and one or more indoor units, along with access to electricity and a place to mount the units. Ductless systems can be installed in either new or existing construction.
More Affordable
Traditional heating and cooling units can run inefficiently for a number of reasons, costing you money in lost energy. The actual units are larger than a ductless system, also costing you more money overall, because they naturally consume more power. Also, conditioned air can be lost through gaps in the ductwork before it ever reaches its intended destination, illustrating yet another example of lost energy for which you also pay.
Ductless systems are smaller than traditional HVAC systems, which means they use less power. In addition, the temperature-controlled air of a ductless system is delivered directly into a room instead of throughout an entire building. This means that you don’t heat or cool rooms that aren’t occupied. Translation: less needed power, less money spent.
Improved Indoor Air Quality
Did you know the quality of indoor air is typically lower than that of outdoor air? Ductwork collects dust, allergens, bacteria, as well as many other contaminants. Traditional forced air systems blow air directly through these contaminants and consequently throughout your house.
Ductless systems offer multi-stage filtration that greatly reduces this type of air contamination and creates a healthier indoor environment.
Easy to Install
Ducted systems can take several weeks to install. They interrupt daily life in the home and can take up valuable real estate due to their size.
Conversely, ductless systems can be installed in as little as a day, depending on the number of units required. The pipes required for the systems only dictate a three-inch hole that makes them easier to integrate into a building.
“We loved Andy! He did a maintenance/cleaning on one of our Mitsubishi mini splits. He was so thorough and knowledgeable, and just a pleasure to talk to. Such a great attitude and you can tell he enjoys what he does. We definitely want him back for any hvac related issues in the future!
Also, Brenda and Shay in the office are so nice and more than helpful!
Love Scott Brothers Heating & Air and have told all my neighbors!”
“Andy has been out several times to address some ongoing issues with one of the mini-splits that were installed in our home. He is extremely personable, friendly, and quite knowledgeable about the equipment he is servicing (as well as ALL things electronic)! Although it is somewhat frustrating to have new equipment not performing properly, Scott Brothers have been responsive in coming out as much as necessary in order to mitigate the problems we have had. Andy continues to troubleshoot the issues and has spent as much time as necessary in order to troubleshoot and make the indicated repairs. We are hoping things have finally been rectified but are confident that if there are any other issues, Andy will be here to take care of things. We really appreciate his work ethic and the fact that the and the Scott Brothers Company are standing behind their work and equipment.”
“From consultation with Brandon, scheduling with Wanda to installation of split unit by Robert and Tyler, all went well. Brandon was very professional and beyond patient answering my questions and addressing my concerns. Installation meant a special trip to my vacation home, and Wanda was extremely helpful in scheduling the job within a timeframe that worked for me. Robert and Tyler showed up promptly with their sights set on completing the job in a timely manner, and both were personable and professional. Process went smoothly. Working with team was refreshing.”
