Going Ductless Is A Smart Investment That Benefits The Home, Says Tassio Temperature Control

Sometimes, a simple, elegant piece of technology can deliver more with less. Ductless mini splits are a triple threat, compact wall units that generate heating, cooling, and ventilation. No ducts are required, and no dull whirring noises they operate in near silence.

Also, ductless units use minimal energy. Typically, users spend up to 30 percent less to cool and up to 60 percent less to heat when they upgrade from their traditional air system, according to ENERGY STAR®.

Mini-splits

Just about every Canoga Park customer who made the switch has something positive to say about these appliances. Tassio has performed installations for energy-conscious families and owners of historic homes where ductwork isn’t an option. Some homeowners are just plain fed up with energy loss and repair costs from their leaky ducts.

No matter what piqued users' curiosity, the team at Tassio Temperature Control is glad users are here. Mini-splits are an excellent option to explore if users want an alternative to traditional air conditioners, furnaces, or heat pumps. Going ductless is a smart investment that benefits the home long-term, potentially for decades.

No Ducts? How Does It Work?

The evaporator resembles a modern rectangular light fixture, it mounts easily to a wall or ceiling

Ductless units pack powerful heating and cooling technology into a small setup. They rely on two central modules, the evaporator (indoors) and the compressor (outdoors).

Users control the temperature using a remote controller, or on a mobile device when coupled with a smart thermostat. The evaporator resembles a modern rectangular light fixture. It mounts easily to a wall or ceiling. 

Even distribution of air

The evaporator harvests heat and humidity from home, sending it outside. Then, using slotted vents, the evaporator evenly distributes the treated air through the room it’s installed in.

A small refrigerant line connects it to the outdoor compressor, a small box with a fan. On hot days, the compressor releases discarded heat that the evaporator collected. On cool days, the process works in reverse, expelling concentrated heat into your home, like a heat pump.

What Are the Benefits of Going Ductless?

Here are just a few advantages:

• Energy Savings

Are users looking to cut down on their electricity usage? With up to 30 percent less energy use on cooling and 60 percent less on heating, it’s one of the most cost-effective products on the market.

Lower utility bills are a major plus. Additionally, they will reduce carbon footprint, helping to preserve California’s clean air for the next generation.

• Easy to Maintain

A simplified setup means fewer parts to keep track of. They are also much easier to access, making cleaning and maintenance a breeze.

To top it off, removing ducts from the equation eliminates the need for duct cleaning and inspections.

• Less Noise Pollution

Most furnaces and AC units produce a humming or rattling, with a distinctive “shudder” at the end of each cycle. These noisy interruptions can break concentration as users work or keep awake while they lay in bed. 

With just a fan and an evaporator, ductless units make the home a much quieter place.

• Versatility

With all-in-one heating and cooling, users have perfect temperature control at their fingertips.

Users also have less machinery to keep track of.

• Individualized Temperature Control

Do users live in a family-sized home? Install multiple modules, and each family member can have it their way, no more arguing over the thermostat.

Users can blast cool air during yoga sessions without giving anyone else a case of shivers. Users can also save energy by switching off the air in empty rooms.
