Not every home has the space for bulky air conditioning ductwork, especially older country homes where additions have expanded the living space over the years.
But that doesn’t mean your family has to sweat through the summer this year. A ductless air conditioner is perfect for older homes, home additions, and homes where greater control over spending and comfort is needed. Ductless air conditioners are perfect for Durham’s smaller homes built around the 70s.
Ductless air conditioners are made of multiple parts. We sometimes call them ductless split systems because they split the air conditioning task between the multiple parts. This type of system includes an outdoor compressor unit, refrigerant lines and one or more indoor air conditioning units. The indoor units are supplied with coolant from the outdoor compressor. The refrigerant lines are small enough to run through your walls, and the units placed in each room are very space-friendly.
Ductless air conditioners consist of three parts.
- An indoor unit.
- An outdoor unit.
- A small line connecting the two.
The outdoor compressor cools the air, the connecting line send the cool air to the indoor air conditioning unit, which keeps you cool.
The line running from the outside of the house to the inside is about as wide as a drinking straw. We drill a small hole for the connection between the units and insulate it so it’s completely unnoticeable.
The interior units are silent and unobtrusive, with simple controls to create comfortable microclimates within your house.
We monitor the industry and only carry ductless air conditioner units from the most innovative manufacturers.
