If you don’t have a central HVAC system, you essentially have two choices to cool your home: a window AC unit or a ductless split air conditioner. The split air conditioner is a system without air ducts that uses two units, one indoors and one outdoors, to cool your home. It offers a number of benefits that a window unit or central air can’t match, making it an affordable and convenient option.

Why You Should Install a Split Air Conditioner

1. Efficient

Because a split air conditioner doesn’t need to push air through ducts, it can be up to 30% more energy-efficient than a similarly sized central cooling system. For the best efficiency, look for products with an Energy Star® certification.

2. Adjustable

Ductless split air conditioning is designed to be extremely customizable. In addition to adjustable power settings on each unit, you can have as many as four different cooling zones hooked to the same system for four different temperatures in separate rooms.

3. Quiet

Window units tend to get loud with their fans and blowers in constant motion. While a modern split system does make some noise, it’s much quieter and will help create a more comfortable, relaxing atmosphere.

4. Doesn’t Block the Window

A split system can be installed anywhere in the room for convenience and aesthetics. While removing a window air conditioner provides an easy way in for an intruder, a ductless split system lets you lock your window normally.
