Heat / Cool Ductless Heat Pump MSZ-GL

Unlike traditional heating and cooling systems, a ductless heat pump system does not require ductwork. Most people who use ductless heat pump do so to heat and cool additional rooms in their home or business, such as bedrooms, basements, garages, or sunrooms.

There are three components in a mini-split heat pump, with most systems typically consisting of one or more indoor units, an outdoor unit, and a remote controller or thermostat to control it. Condenser units have a large fan at the back and coiler at the back of the box.

The operation process is very straightforward:

• The fan draws air from the outside environment into the heating coil.
• A refrigerant then transfers the heat or cold into the house through a mini-split unit’s indoor system.

 
Ducted HVAC systems heat and cool your entire home without allowing you to set individual systems temperatures in each room. A thermostat can only sense the ambient temperature at the location where it is installed. Thus, the higher floors may be warmer than your basement.

Ductless systems are often installed in older homes or buildings heated by boilers or electric baseboards. A Ductless Mini-split can also help provide additional cooling and heating to the upper floors of a larger home. This system can be especially useful for delivering air conditioning to the top floors of house, where a central air conditioner usually struggles to do so.

Single-Zone Ductless Heat Pumps consists of one unit and one outdoor unit, while multi-zone systems contain one outdoor unit (condenser) and up to eight indoor units. Ductless systems have capacities ranging from 0.5 TON for a single zone to 4 TON for multiple zones. With a multi-zone system, up to eight indoor units can function with one outdoor unit at differing temperatures.

The air coil design provides exceptional heat transfer and low air-resistance for optimal energy- efficiency. The high-efficiency variable capacity inverter compressor also aids in reducing energy usage by being able to adjust output to any level between 25% to 110%.

The direct-driven fan blades perform vortex suppression to reduce the sound of the airflow the condensing section of the system, providing quiet comfort.

The condensing units come standard with an electronic expansion valve (EEV) to regulate refrigerant flow and optimize the system’s process to be as efficient as possible.

Depending on the size of your home, the capacity of the system, the difficulty of installation and the accessories you need, the cost of a Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump or air conditioner installation can range in price.

A ductless HVAC system’s price is largely determined by its spacing. The more space that needs to be heath or cooled, the larger the indoor and outdoor units need to be. In general, a ductless system’s price is likely to be comparable to that of a central air conditioner.

In contrast to central air conditioners, ductless systems do not rely on ductwork and blower systems to circulate air. However, in addition to an outdoor unit, an indoor unit must be installed in each room that requires temperature control, adding to the overall cost of the system.

A Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump usually has a lifespan of 10-15 years, but can last up to 20 years with proper maintenance.
