Long Island Ductless Air Conditioning - An Overview

The ductless air conditioning system is a versatile choice to have as a ventilation system installed in a house or a building. It offers several advantages over the traditional centralized air conditioning system and the window-type air conditioning system. Let us discuss first, in a nutshell, what this system is then we will go over its benefits.

The ductless air conditioning system has two main units. The indoor unit contains the evaporator fan and coils and is responsible for circulating the air within the room or structure to be cooled. The outdoor unit contains the compressor which circulates the refrigerant within the system and the condenser fan and coils which take the heat away from the refrigerant pumped through the coils and out into the surroundings.

The main attribute of this system, as the name implies, is that no Long Island ductwork is needed for it to operate. This alone already gives provides us with several benefits. One, there is less hassle for installation since no ducts are needed and two; it takes less space within the room to be cooled.

Another highlight of the ductless system is that it enables different rooms to be cooled and maintained at different temperatures. This is made possible because of the presence of an evaporator unit within a room that is controlled on its own. Cooling is set when it is needed and by how much. Since all modern systems operate with a remote control, setting things according to your preferences is just a push of a button away.

Energy efficiency is also achieved through this system. First, cold air is circulated immediately in the room without the need to pass through any ducting. Ducting can actually result in loss of the coldness which means that your machine would have to work overtime but fortunately, you won't experience that with ductless AC's. Second, you can choose which units to turn on and which ones to turn off since different areas have their own evaporator units. Third, since the thermostat which detects temperature is within the same room being cooled, energy is saved because temperature is reached easily and maintained as accurately as possible within the room.

Since the compressor is outside, this system is also less noisy to operate. It is also considered more secure compared to a window unit as the only hole made is about 2-3 inches, just enough to allow piping to pass through the wall which connects the indoor and outdoor units.

With all these benefits, it is no wonder that a Long Island ductless air conditioning\ system is gaining more popularity these days. So contact your contractor today and ask about how you can get one installed.
