What Is a Mini Split System and Is It Right for Your Home?
A mini split system is an electric ductless heating and cooling system. The system has two key elements: an indoor component (the air handler) and an outdoor component (a heat pump).
You can have a mini split system installed in almost any home, but they’re best suited in these cases:
- Older homes
- Rooms without ductwork
- Additions and converted spaces
Since mini split systems are electric, they’re more energy-efficient and eco-friendly than traditional gas or oil HVAC systems.
