A ductless mini split with heat pump is an amazing way to get not just AC but also heating! This system is extremely efficient and works even at surprisingly low temperatures. However, it’s not as familiar to many people as central heat and air conditioning, so before you have this type of system installed, you’ve probably got some questions. We can tell you all about ductless systems, how they heat, and what the installation process is like.
What should you expect during a ductless heat pump installation?
- Wall-mounted indoor units are positioned in each room or zone for targeted comfort.
- A small 3-inch hole is drilled to connect the indoor and outdoor units.
- Refrigerant lines, power cables, and a condensate drain are run through this opening.
- The outdoor unit is placed near the home’s exterior.
- Installation usually takes one to two days depending on system size.
- Most homes don’t need major construction or ductwork modifications.
