What Is a Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump System?
This system, with an outdoor unit and a quiet, wall-mounted indoor unit, is often referred to as a mini-split heat pump. Heat pump systems have been used in southern climates for decades to heat and cool homes.
With mini-splits, you can change the heating or cooling in individual areas of your home, making these mini-split heat pump systems more energy efficient.
Single Zone Ductless Systems – indoor and outdoor
Without using ductwork, manage the temperature in just one room with these ductless mini-split units. They’re easy to install and can lower energy bills over time.
Depending on the layout of your home, the number of rooms, and your heating & cooling requirements, you may be looking to install a multi-zone system for your home to control your comfort in multiple rooms or your whole home.
Multi-Zone Ductless Heat Pumps
For homes with more than one occupant, multi-zone systems allow everyone to control the temperature in their own room. Some people like to sleep in a cold room, while others prefer to be warm when they get out of bed. There are no disputes when it’s easy to regulate temperatures with individual thermostats, remote controls, or even smart devices.
Another great benefit is that you only need one outdoor compressor to power several indoor units. The compressor can bring designated rooms to different temperatures without having an unintended impact on the rest of the home. It’s the best choice by far for residences with multiple rooms.
In many parts of Canada, like the greater Hamilton area, where temperatures sometimes go down to –30 C, a cold-climate air-source heat pump may be recommended.
