What is a Mini Split System? The Mini-split system has twomain components. There is an outdoor condenser and an indoor air handling unit. A conduit, which houses the power cable, refrigerant tubing, and a condensate drain, links the indoor and outdoor units. Where can they be used? Mini splits can be effectively used in both residential and commercial buildings. They are currently most commonly used in multi-family housing or retrofit as add-ons to homes with "non-ducted" heating systems. They can also be a good choice for room additions and small apartments, where installing ductwork (for a central air-conditioner or heating systems) is not feasible or practical. Other opportunities for effective use include school classrooms, perimeter cooling for office buildings, additional cooling for office buildings, additional cooling for restaurant kitchens and cooling for small offices. Advantages: Mini-splits are small in size and very flexible for zoning because no ductwork is needed for heating and cooling individual rooms or areas. Each unit has its own thermostat, so you can adjust it to the requirements of the room or area. Since mini-splits have no ducts, they avoid the energy losses associated with the ductwork of central forced air systems. Duct losses can account for more than 30% of energy consumption, especially if the ducts are in a non-air conditioned space, such as an attic. Ductless mini split-systems are available in both air conditioner and air conditioner / heat pump models. Ductless min-split systems range from13 SEER to 21 SEER. Very few conventional split DX systems run up to 21 SEER.
