Mini-split systems are favored for their simplicity. This includes their installation, affordability in comparison to other systems, and energy efficiency, resulting in lower utility bills. There are many kinds of mini splits to consider, each serving an effective purpose for what you want. This post will cover everyday scenarios that point to which mini-split unit would be best suited for you.
To start, if you have been seeking to circulate cool or warm air within a garage, there is a mini split that would work well for that environment. This unit would be a ceiling cassette mini split; it is designed to bypass the need for ductwork to release cooling or heating within a space. They typically stay out of sight and disperse airflow evenly. Though garages can possess ductwork, with this unit you would not have to worry about increased safety measures such as having fire dampers for the ducts. This type of unit is an easy and practical way to have efficient airflow for garages.
Furthermore, for those who have home gyms, offices, or sunrooms, a wall-mounted mini-split unit would work in your favor. These types of rooms benefit from wall-mounted units because you do not have to worry about floor space. They also cool efficiently, especially for fitness purposes. The unit will effectively keep these smaller-sized spaces cooled or heated at an affordable price. They complement indoor home spaces but also benefit ones disconnected from the home.
Lastly, if you possess spaces or properties that typically have low ceilings, such as basements, older homes, and even cottages, a floor-mounted mini-split would perform well for you. Because they are designed to be placed on the floor, they are excellent for spaces that have limited wall space. Their space-saving design is also accompanied by efficient cooling or heating for areas with limited capacity. So, if you are seeking to keep areas like a basement cool or warm, we encourage you to consider this style of mini split.
Just as these scenarios vary, the categories of mini-splits available vary too. With everyday situations such as turning a spare room into a workout room, or creating an office space in your basement, these units can provide a solution, creating strong airflow in your space. However, these units will only perform well with proper installation, so please seek a professional. If any style of these mini-split units caught your eye, Air Integrity HVAC is here to provide high-quality service to every customer!
