The Pros & Cons of Ductless HVAC Systems for Commercial Properties

There’s always a variety of options to choose from when it comes to commercial HVAC systems. One of them is the ductless unit, which most heating and air conditioning maintenance companies highly recommend. Although these are mostly found in residential applications, they’re also considered a viable option for business spaces. To help you decide whether it’s ideal for your property, here are its pros and cons.

Advantages:

  • It should be noted that mini-split air conditioning systems don’t require any kind of ductwork, making them a breeze to install, especially in an existing building. They act as an air conditioner as well as a heater that can work in most climate zones.
  • HVAC repair experts note that the installation process of a ductless system is simple, making it possible for some of these projects to be completed within the day, even if you have a complex layout.

  • The cost of cooling your space can also be reduced by up to 30 percent due to the elimination of duct temperature loss. Moreover, given that it’s both a heater and an air conditioner, it’s easy to maintain.

Disadvantages:

  • The initial cost of installing a ductless HVAC system can be higher than simply replacing a conventional system. After all, the need for multiple mini-split units can result in considerable HVAC expenses for your business.
  • Ductless units are more exposed and visible, although many people seem to forget that they’re there soon after they’re installed.

  • This units’ filters must be changed or at least cleaned on a strict schedule. This is because clogging can reduce the system’s effectiveness and prompt damage and mechanical failure.
