Ductless Heat Pumps, also called Mini Splits, bring you all the energy efficiency of a traditional Heat Pump without the need for ductwork. They make a great alternative to baseboards and other less efficient electric zonal heating, as well as an excellent back-up for wood or pellet stoves, giving you the freedom to burn when you want to, not when you have to. If you want to enjoy the comfort of radiant heated flooring and still keep your heating bill down, we also recommend augmenting your system with a Mini Split.

Ductless Heat Pumps function the same as traditional Heat Pumps, using the natural properties of refrigerant to move ambient heat from the outside air into your home, even on a cold day. They can also, of course, reverse the process to cool your home on a hot day. From the outdoor unit, thin copper tubing delivers refrigerant directly to individual, discreet blowers inside, thus eliminating the need for ductwork and adding to overall efficiency.

The extraordinary flexibility of Mini Splits make them ideal for retrofits and new construction alike. If you have existing ductwork and are considering a Mini Split anyway, we’d be happy to advise you.
