Ductless Mini Split Installation in NH | Ductless AC & Heat Pumps

Q: How Does a Home Benefit from Mini-splits?

Mini-split systems can be installed almost anywhere, provided there is a good location for the outdoor unit and indoor unit(s). Indoor units can be installed in almost all locations, either on the floor or on a wall or ceiling. Each indoor unit contains its own local temperature sensor and can be individually controlled from a remote control or with the correct upgrade package, even your phone. If seasonal allergies are a concern, they can also be fitted with enzyme filters that eliminate allergens and irritants inside your home.

Q: Can You Have Both a Mini-split and a Central AC Installed?

The short answer is yes! Even if you have a central heating and cooling system, you can still benefit from a ductless system in areas of your home without existing ductwork such as a new addition, workshop or garage, and even finished basements.

Ductless air conditioners, also known as “mini splits”, are an excellent cooling option for many homeowners in New Hampshire. This is because a significant number of homes in the Northeast don’t have existing ductwork necessary for central air conditioning.

Ductless mini splits are a sleek, versatile alternative to central air conditioning. They don’t need ducts to heat or cool your home, so they can be installed in almost any space — and the configurations are almost endless. So if you’re sick of sweaty summers and loud, bulky window AC units, give Heritage a call! With over 35 years in business, we are the leading mini split service provider in New Hampshire.

What Are the Benefits of Ductless Mini Split AC Systems?

Easy Installation
Mini split systems use less space to fit all of the necessary components of heating and cooling equipment without any ducts. Mini-split systems can be installed in any room as long as the outdoor unit is within a reasonable distance. Outdoor units can be installed on the ground, roof, or mounted to the wall.

Cooling + Heating
As a side benefit, all of Heritage’s ductless AC systems double as heat pumps during the colder months, providing heating to your home in outside temperatures as low as -13°F. Even if you already have a furnace or boiler, you’ll be able to heat your home with greater efficiency by using the heat pump instead.

Zoning Capabilities
Ductless mini splits can be set up to control the temperature in just one room (single-zone) or throughout your home (multi-zone). Single-zone systems are great for additional rooms or a single area that needs better temperature control. Multi-zone mini split systems are a whole-home alternative to central air conditioning, with the added benefit of room-to-room control and excellent energy efficiency. Zoning can meet everyone’s temperature preferences at once, meaning no more fighting over the thermostat!

Energy Efficiency & Cost Savings
Central air conditioning distributes air throughout the whole house, so you have to adjust the thermostat if just one room is too hot or cold. These systems have to work even harder if your ductwork has air leaks or was improperly installed. Mini split systems, in comparison, can reduce energy consumption by 30% simply because they don’t need ductwork.

Quiet Operation
Our Mitsubishi mini split systems are some of the quietest air conditioners available on the market. Their ability to operate without noise makes them perfect for bedrooms and other quiet spaces. Central and window AC units simply can’t compare!

Available Upgrades and Add-ons
Each indoor unit contains its own local temperature sensor and can be individually controlled from a remote control – or, with the correct upgrade package, your smartphone. If seasonal allergies are a concern, they can also be fitted with enzyme filters that eliminate allergens and irritants inside your home.

The Mini Split Installation Process

During your free initial consultation, one of our friendly HVAC experts will inspect your home and ask some questions about your comfort needs and preferences:

What is your current HVAC system? Will this be a replacement or a new installation?
Do you have existing ductwork?
How often do you use your HVAC system
One or multiple zones? How many indoor units?
How important is energy efficiency to you?
Are you interested in any smart home or indoor air quality add-ons?

Based on these factors, we’ll recommend some options, answer any questions you have, and provide a quote. We can also help with the financing process and applying for tax credits you qualify for, if applicable.

In most cases, we can schedule your mini split installation for the next day. Our HVAC team will update you on our arrival and show up on time in Heritage-branded vehicles. Once we get started, the installation process only takes a couple of hours. Multi-zone systems will take a little longer to install than a single mini split.

When the installation is complete, we’ll clean up the work area and show you how to operate your new ductless mini split. If there are any problems after we leave, you can call the Heritage office, and we will do what it takes to make things right!

Mitsubishi mini splits can provide zoned or whole-home heating and air conditioning.

Our ductless HVAC products are highly customizable, allowing you to choose the number of individual units and control zones you want in your home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mini Splits

How are Ductless Mini Splits Different From Other AC Options?

Ductless mini split systems are configured with one or more indoor units (evaporators) powered by a single inverter-controlled, variable-speed outdoor compressor. The compressor delivers maximum comfort by speeding up or slowing down to meet your specific needs. By continuously working, the ductless AC unit doesn’t waste energy like other traditional HVAC systems. These systems are also known for being efficient because no energy is lost while transporting air through lengthy ductwork.

Can You Have Both a Mini Split AC and a Central AC Installed?

The short answer is yes! Even if you have a central cooling system, you can still benefit from a ductless system in areas of your home without existing ductwork such as a new addition, workshop, garage, or finished basement.

Typically, existing ductwork is not designed to accommodate additions or renovations and therefore is only sized to meet the exact airflow requirements of your existing setup. This makes it either impossible or too costly to add a new “zone” to existing ductwork. In these cases, a mini-split solution may be a better option.

Are Mini Splits Good for Heating?

Yes! Most standard units are effective down to about 35 degrees, or you can upgrade to a Hyper Heat system so you can heat your home all year round, even down to -13°F. And depending on the layout and size of your system, ductless heat pumps can actually heat your home more efficiently than traditional fossil fuel systems like gas or oil, saving you money during the heating season.

What Maintenance Do Ductless HVAC Systems Need?

Ductless AC and heat pumps need annual maintenance just like any other HVAC system. These services give us the chance to clean your system, inspect all components, and make small repairs before they turn into big expensive problems, ensuring that your mini split continues to work throughout the year. HVAC systems that are routinely maintained operate more efficiently, need fewer repairs, and live longer than those that don’t get the same care.

What Others Say

    
 
 
       I had a tree come down on the electric service between my house and the pole which not only severed the wire but also destroyed the service on the side of the house. I called Heritage and they dispatched Erik to assist me. He was prompt, courteous, and very knowledgeable, and repaired the damage quickly. Very satisfied, will call again if I need service in the future!

      Justin was a gem. Fixed what others thought was too complicated (it was not). Reviewed other work that I need done- educated me on some safety features. Will use Heritage with no hesitation and hopefully Justin will do all my electrical work!

      Called Saturday afternoon for an appointment for a leaky toilet in a rental property. Not an emergency, so he came out promptly Monday morning as agreed, gave a quick diagnosis, took care of the problem quickly. Heritage is pricey, but do you know how long it can take to get most plumbers to your door? Prompt service meant a lot of value-add in this situation.
