What is a ductless HVAC system?

A ductless HVAC system, or mini-split system, is a ductless heating and cooling system designed to deliver warm or cool air to a single room, or several, without the need for connective ductwork. Mini split systems are a great option for room additions, sunrooms, garages, or areas of the home that need to be warmer or cooler. These ductless split systems can be single-zone or multi-zone.

How does a mini-split air conditioner work?

A ductless or mini-split air conditioner works just like a conventional split central air conditioner. It has an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. Unlike a bulky window air conditioner, a ductless air conditioner is mounted to a wall, ceiling, or placed in the floor. A small hole is cut to lead to the outdoor unit, where warm air is expelled. Other than that, the ductless air conditioner works just like a traditional one, just without the ductwork. Ductless air conditioners and ductless systems products provide cool comfort when you need it most.

Which mini-split heat pump do I need?

That’s a great question, and you’re smart to be asking. The mini-split heat pump provides the power behind the heating and cooling. You’ll need one powerful enough to heat and cool your space. Depending on your climate, you may want one with hyper-heating performance. Even in outside temperatures as cold as -13º F, our Pro-Heat INVERTER technology will keep your home comfortable. Pro-Heat Plus takes hyperheating technology to a new level providing 100% heating capacity down to -5° F outdoor ambient (without wind chill) temperature. The best way to find the right mini-split heat pump for your space is to consult with an experienced HVAC professional.

How much is a new mini-split system?

Your mini-split system cost will vary widely depending on the heating and cooling capacity, efficiency ratings, choice of indoor unit, and other factors. Contact your local Trane dealer for specific pricing information.

What does ductless system maintenance look like?

Ductless system maintenance is similar to traditional system maintenance, and regular maintenance can help prolong the life of your system. One big difference is the air filters are cleanable and don’t have to be replaced every few months.
