How a Ductless Mini Split System Works
A ductless system works in a similar way as a heat pump. Heat pumps circulate refrigerant between an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. They work by moving heat energy. In the cold weather, the heat pump takes the heat energy from the outdoor air and brings it into your home to warm the house. In warm weather, the heat pump reverses operation by taking the heat from the air inside your home and transferring it to the outside.
A heat pump distributes the warmed or cooled air through your home via the duct system. A ductless mini split delivers the conditioned air through the indoor unit, so no ductwork is needed.

Benefits of a Ductless System
Ductless mini split systems are extremely versatile and can be used for many applications. A ductless system can be installed to cool a single room, a home addition, basement, or to create zones for air conditioning and heating in your home. There are several advantages to choosing this type of system for your home.
The benefits of ductless systems include:
- Avoid installing ductwork
- Energy efficiency
- Savings on heating and air conditioning costs
- Zoned temperature control
- Cleaner, healthier air
- Easy maintenance
- Rebates from ENERGY STAR for replacing older systems
Installing ductwork in a smaller home or a historic home may not be possible, but you don’t have to give up on the idea of having air conditioning. Ductless mini split systems can easily be installed without the expense or hassle of having a duct system installed.
