Ductless air conditioners review

Ductless air conditioner is one of devices which importance difficultly to overestimate as on work and at home. The AC unit which was established in a room promotes any activity whether it works or rests. A distinctive feature is independence of a weather environment, it can work both as a cooler in the summer and as a heater in the winter.

Ductless cooling systems are A/C units which are established without ducts for air-conditioning. The device will be suitable for rooms without external walls and windows. The circle of application such equipment is extraordinary wide, it is established at offices, in houses, at universities, schools and hotels.

Ductless air conditioners consist of two core components: inner which consists of the fan, the evaporator and the control panel, and also external which consists of the condenser and the compressor.

Advantages of ductless air conditioners

The basic advantages of such subtypes of ductless AC units as ductless mini split air conditioners and ductless split air conditioners are small size and flexibility for heating and cooling of separate rooms. Many models can have to four inner modules connected to one external. The quantity of inner modules depends on that how much capacity it is necessary for heating or cooling of each separate room. As each of zones will have its own thermostat, you can cool only those rooms which you need.

Advantages of ductless air conditioners in comparison with the central air conditioning systems

Ductless cooling devices have many advantages in comparison with the central air conditioning systems. Installation of ductless units is much easier; it is not required to mount ducts for air. The external module is much smaller than the external module of central home cooling systems. Ductless equipment is much more favorable than installation of central air conditioning systems or installation of window units. Even if it costs more then central air cooling systems or window units, it is much more economic in service. It requires fewer places in comparison with the central air conditioning systems. It does not require special ducts for air. Channel losses can make more then 30% energy for space air-conditioning, especially if channels are in space which does not need air-conditioning (for example an attic).

Advantages of ductless air conditioners in comparison with window air conditioners and portable air conditioners

It does not use space in a window as it made by window AC units, thereby does not reduce light in a room. Unlike window devices it does not require an external wall or a window. In difference from window types of cooling equipment it should not be mounted and dismantled from a window seasonally.

In comparison with window A/C units of inner secretion

• 1. More effective energy consumption, more cooling and less power consumption.
• 2. Less exploitation cost in comparison with other types of room cooling devices.
• 3. Work more silently than portable or window units.

Thanks to advantages described above ductless air cooling solutions become more popular every day.

Disadvantages of ductless air conditioners

Some people do not like appearance of inner blocks of system. In comparison with the central air conditioning system it is less integrated. Ductless air conditioner costs rather expensively in comparison with other types of AC units.

Ductless air conditioners prices

The prices for ductless air cooling devices vary in 1500$ - 5000$ depending on capacity and efficiency.

Ductless air conditioners installation

The ductless air conditioner is simple enough in installation. Observing the instruction you can install it by yourself or call expert who will make it for you (recommended). The external block must be established on a solid platform. Inner blocks are established on walls or in a ceiling.
