Should You Get A Ductless Air Conditioning System?
Should you get a ductless air conditioning system? It’s not an easy or cut-and-dried answer. First, let’s explain that 
traditional air conditioning in homes and businesses in Englewood, Florida are usually referred to as “central air.” In Florida, central air makes sense because you want whole-home air conditioning. A ductless air conditioning system is also an option. Ductless systems for both cooling and heating are popular.
Before you make a decision on which is right for you, here are some considerations you will want to talk with your air conditioning professional from Symbiont Service Air Conditioning and get your questions answered before you make any final decisions.
Should You Get A Ductless Air Conditioning System?
Here are some questions to think about before you give us a call.
- Efficiency and zoning. When you have zoned air or heating, you’re heating or cooling a specific space in the home. For example, you may want the living areas cooler during the day and the bedrooms cooler at night. When you have zoned cooling you can do that. Zoned cooling and heating is more energy-efficient. In this case, a ductless system might make more sense because it has a washable filter, provides excellent filtration and is designed to operate at the highest levels of efficiency. Traditional central air may require more annual maintenance and more frequent filter changes.
- If you suffer allergies you want a system that provides the highest indoor air quality. A ductless system is powered by electricity and its filtration system captures and removes contaminants that trigger allergy symptoms.
- Ductless systems are quieter than traditional whole-house systems. If you have a window unit, as some in Florida do, you know they are noisy and, frankly, unsightly.
Compare the cost of a traditional versus a ductless system
Installation cost and long-term and ongoing costs need to be considered when investing in an air conditioning system for your home or office. It’s difficult, if not impossible, to tell you how much your system will cost. The reason for that is, every home configuration and size is unique. An air conditioning unit needs to be sized to your unique home. You don’t want a system that is too big or one that is too small; these would both lead to being not energy efficient.
