Mini Split Systems For Your Louisville Home

Mini splits are smaller versions of traditional HVAC systems, also known as ductless systems. A split system includes two units: An outdoor compressor/condenser unit and an indoor air handler.

“Ductless” means it does not use a duct system (those long, curving silver pipes installed throughout your home) for distributing air.

Single Zone Mini Split Systems For Your Louisville Home

A single-zone mini split system consists of a single outdoor and single indoor unit. Additionally, it is designed to control the temperature of an individual room.

Multi Zone

Multi-zone mini split systems are composed of two to eight indoor units for one condenser. Despite being connected to one another, each unit in a multi-zone system can function independently and be set to a different temperature.

Mounting Options For Mini Split Systems For Your Louisville Home

The air handling units for mini splits can be installed in a variety of ways. As a result, this allows you to control the look of your room.

Most indoor units have profiles of about 7” deep and usually come with sleek, high-tech-looking jackets. To coincide with your home’s décor, there are a variety of ways of mounting a mini split.

Wall Mounted Mini Split Systems

Wall-mounted mini split systems are installed near the top of a wall.  In fact, they’re the most popular mini split option due to being the least expensive choice.

Floor Mounted Mini Split Systems

A floor-mounted mini split is similar to a wall-mounted unit, only they’re installed near the bottom of a wall.

This is a great option if you want to mount your mini split on the wall but you have windows that are too high or ceilings that are too low for a wall-mounted split.

Ceiling Cassette

Ceiling cassette systems mount flush to the ceiling.  For example, this design is an excellent choice for those who want to keep their indoor unit out of sight, out of mind.

As a bonus, the ceiling mounted design delivers a wider air flow than wall mounted units.

Concealed Duct Mini Split Systems

We install these units in the ceiling so they can be connected to one or more ducts. They are very flexible and can be ducted into one or more rooms. Ceiling concealed units are great for covering multiple bedrooms or a single large room that needs multiple vents.

Daikin Inverter Technology For Mini Split Systems

The Daikin inverter system is a highly efficient technology that uses only the energy it needs by controlling the motor speed within the unit’s compressor.

Your system will operate quietly and continuously, maintaining a consistent temperature while conserving energy.  This function can help reduce energy consumption by up to 30% or more (compared to traditional fixed-speed ducted systems), according to the Department of Energy.
