Central Mini Split Systems

Central mini splits represent a unitary ducted system, offering an electric alternative to traditional gas and oil heating systems for residential spaces. These systems, adept at both heating and cooling, operate with the efficiency of mini splits but have been uniquely engineered to seamlessly integrate with ductwork. While mini splits typically utilize lines connecting outdoor condensers t individual indoor air handlers, central mini splits are connected to ductwork akin to a furnace. This design not only enhances their versatility but also positions them as a cost-effective solution, contributing to energy conservation and substantial savings on utility bills.

    Central Mini Split = Ducted vs. Regular Mini Split = Ductless

    Central Mini Split Systems use the same technology as mini splits; however, they have been specifically designed to work with ductwork that connects to your furnace. Whereas mini split systems are ductless and use a line that runs from the outdoor condenser to the individual indoor air handlers.

  • SEER (cooling) and HSPF (heating) are standardized measurements of the electrical efficiency of the systems. Use these specifications to determine relative efficiency between the systems.
  • Proper sizing - the BTU outputs or Tons (12,000 btu = 1 Ton) measure the output capacity of a system. The system selected should match both size and location of your home.
