Summers in Jackson, MS, are long, hot and humid. Almost 50 percent of your utility costs are for cooling and heating your home, and a more energy-efficient HVAC system could save you a lot of money. Here are some of the top benefits of installing ductless HVAC in your home:
Save Money
Leaky air ducts waste the cooled air from your air conditioning system or heat pump. According to the Department of Energy, ducts leak up to 30 percent of the conditioned air. A ductless system could save you $300 or more per year on cooling costs.
Design Flexibility
If you’re adding onto your home, you’ll have more design flexibility with ductless HVAC. You won’t have to worry about fitting in bulky air ducts or where to put the air vents on your walls or ceilings. Ductless HVAC also provides more design flexibility for new construction.
Zoned Climate Control
If your household includes more than one person, chances are good that one person likes the house warmer and someone else likes it cooler. A ductless system allows you to set up zoned climate control. You can have up to four zones, and each zone has its own thermostat that you can set to a different temperature.
Less Home Maintenance
Air ducts and vents can accumulate dust and dirt, and they’re also prime hiding places for pests. When you choose a ductless HVAC system, you won’t have to worry about cleaning your ducts and vents. Ductless HVAC systems also don’t have a huge filter that has to be replaced every three months.
Fast Installation
If you’re remodeling or building a home in Jackson, you want it to be ready as soon as possible. A ductless system doesn’t take as much time to install. The simplicity of installing a ductless system also means lower installation costs.
