How Mini Split Heat Pumps Work
Ductless heat pumps work the same way as ducted heat pumps—by moving heat rather than creating it through fossil fuel combustion. These all-electric heating and cooling systems are able to seamlessly integrate into your home without connecting to your central ductwork. Mitsubishi Electric Heating & Air Conditioning Systems are a good solution to keep comfortable in room additions, like garages, bonus rooms, and sunrooms, or entire homes.
Ductless heat pumps have an outdoor compressor that acts as the engine for the heating and cooling system, along with indoor air handlers in each room or “zone” to distribute conditioned air. The indoor and outdoor units are connected via lines of refrigerant, electric wiring, and a condensate line.
Yes! Heat Pumps Perform Well in Cold Weather
Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps are designed for cold weather performance and can be your primary home heating system. They can heat your entire New England home—even when it is as low as -13° Fahrenheit outside!
Why Choose a Ductless Heat Pump?
There are several reasons to consider installing a Mitsubishi Electric Heating and Air Conditioning system in your Massachusetts or New Hampshire home.
Energy Savings
Since heat pumps move heat instead of creating it, they’re some of the most energy efficient HVAC systems on the market today. Ductless mini splits also allow you to customize the temperature settings in each zone throughout your home, so you won’t waste energy conditioning the air in any unused rooms.
All-In-One Heating & Cooling
Ductless heat pumps offer year-round comfort without the need to manage multiple pieces of equipment in your home. Having one system for your heating and cooling needs also means you’ll only have one system to maintain and repair as well.
Improved Indoor Air Quality
Heat pumps don’t use combustion to provide heating, meaning that they also eliminate the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning that comes with burning gas or oil. Each air handler is also equipped with filters that will catch dust, pollen, and other contaminants.
