Global Heating & Cooling 
We’re already halfway through the spring season, and summers are around the corner. If the rising temperatures and humidity levels are compelling you to make your home’s heating and cooling more efficient, a ductless mini-split system could be your best bet. However, despite the great features, they cannot be efficient in all situations and indoor conditions.
To determine whether a ductless mini-split system would be a good pick for your home, here are all the factors you need to keep in mind.
Check the Measurements
If your home or room covers a thousand square feet or less, then mini-split systems will be the best heating and cooling unit for you. If these units are installed in spaces larger than 1000 sq. ft.,they will continue to work the entire day, leading to more wear and tear, shorter life expectancy, higher repair and maintenance costs, and increased energy consumption.
Insulated Spaces
Ductless mini-split systems work great in homes, rooms, or other spaces that are well-insulated. Compromised insulation will require these units to operate for longer and more frequently than they should. Good insulation will keep these units from using more energy, reducing your monthly electricity bills, and increasing the units’ useful life.
Home Modifications and Renovations
If you live in a large home with a built-in air conditioning system and extensive ductwork for the airflow, in such a case, a ductless mini-split system could work as an add-on to the existing system. For instance, if you’re renovating your home or constructing a new home, you don’t have to modify the entire existing duct network and install new air filters and vents. Instead, you could invest in a ductless mini-split unit for that particular space that isn’t connected to the existing ductwork and save yourself hundreds of dollars.
Cold and Hot Spots
If your home is more or less exposed to the sun’s heat, it may be colder or warmer than other rooms or areas in the house. Additionally, if any of the spaces have a refrigerator and other heat-emitting appliances, it could also have higher temperatures compared to other rooms. Installing a ductless mini-split system can fix the problem of hot and cold spots and keep the temperatures balanced throughout your home.
