Your home is a place for rest and relaxation. Heating and cooling is a big part of that equation—but so is indoor air quality (IAQ).
Modern homes are well-insulated—which is excellent for temperature control but not ideal for air quality. Your home can trap molecules that trigger allergies or other respiratory issues. That’s why adequate ventilation and balanced humidity are so important.
Fortunately, ductless mini splits can provide all the essentials for home comfort—warm air, cool air, ventilation, and humidity control. Plus, they’re much more efficient than a standard air conditioner and furnace combination.
According to ENERGY STAR®, you’ll save on average 30 percent on cooling and 60 percent on heating by switching to ductless.
Homeowners in Europe and Asia have known about ductless mini splits for decades. But in recent years, an increasing number of Oregon families have adopted the same technology.
Robben & Sons Heating, Inc. is pleased to supply and install a wide variety of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) options for our customers in Clackamas and beyond. If you’re considering ductless units for your home, consult with one of our Oregon experts. We’re ready to collaborate on a solution that takes your home comfort to the next level.
How Ductless Units Work Their Magic
Ductless units have an indoor module (the air handler) and an outdoor module (the compressor/condenser).
The outdoor module is a miniature box fan. On a warm day, it expels heat and humidity extracted from your home to produce cool air. On a cool day, it extracts heat from the air and sends it into your home.
The indoor module is small and rectangular, resembling an ultramodern light fixture. It mounts to the wall or ceiling and disperses air into the room through vents.
Why They’re Wonderful
Remodeling projects are fun, but what happens when you are trying to remodel a room without ductwork—such as your attic, basement, or garage? A ductless mini split provides you with a flexible solution.
Older majestic homes without ductwork can also take advantage of these systems. Other benefits include:
