Ductless heating and cooling systems are becoming popular due to their energy efficiency, convenience, and cost effectiveness. What many homeowners are discovering is that they’re also incredibly quiet compared to traditional HVAC systems, with many ductless units performing as low as 19dBA. That’s why the heating and cooling specialists at R.R. Services in southeastern Massachusetts often recommend them to anyone renovating an old house or building a new home.

If you’re curious why ductless systems are so quiet in comparison to older systems, consider the following facts.

3 Reasons Ductless Heating & Cooling Systems Are So Quiet

1. No Ducts Equal No Noise

ductless heating and coolingDuctless and short-ducted systems deliver treated air directly into a home, while traditional HVAC systems rely on ductwork to operate. Because of this, older systems depend on noisy fans that struggle to push heated and cooled air into each room — which also requires more energy and drives up utility costs.

2. They’re Designed to Be Silent

Modern ductless systems from Mitsubishi Electric utilize special advanced technology to reduce noise. The entire unit is designed to work together efficiently and quietly, thanks to special parts such as vibration dampeners and an insulated compressor compartment.

3. They Don’t Turn On & Off As Much

Central heating and air units frequently shut off before turning on again, which makes a noticeable clanging sound, especially if the outdoor compressor is located near a window. Thanks to their advanced design, ductless systems make little sound as they cycle on and off.
