Summer is in the air, and a functioning air conditioning system is imperative. To improve household comfort, you need a system right for your family and lifestyle. The HVAC experts at Conshohocken, PA’s Unique Indoor Comfort share three common unit types to help you make the ideal decision.

What Air Conditioning System Should You Choose?

Wall-Mounted AC

A wall-mounted AC is a packaged central air conditioner that includes all parts in one simple, easy-to-install unit. Commonly placed near the foundation, this air conditioning option utilizes ducts to draw heated air from the indoors and replace it with cool, comfortable, and quality air. It’s used in both regular residences and small businesses. 

Ductless Mini-Split

The ductless mini-split system is an excellent choice for newer homes that don’t contain ductwork. The system involves multiple components — indoor air-handling units and an outdoor compressor. Installed high on the wall, these systems efficiently pump air downward for a cozy, comfortable draft that circulates throughout your room. With a unit installed in every room, you can control the temperature individually. If you’re busy in your home office, pump up the air. When you’re not using the bedrooms, turn it down.

Heat Pumps

Similar to the traditional split system, heat pumps work efficiently for both heating and cooling. During the summer, expect indoor heat buildup to release itself outdoors, with warm air making its way inside during the winter months. There are multiple pump types, so ask your HVAC contractor about the right choice for you. Geothermal pumps are more advanced and ideal for cooler climates, for example. If you have a hard time heating up your home during winter, this option might be right for you.
