Whether it’s muggy, humid, or hot outside, we are unconcerned as long as the air conditioner is are running smoothly. Many people believe the only way to get reliable and successful indoor air comfort in the summer is with central air conditioning. The reality is, there are several benefits of a ductless mini-split ac unit – a unit in that is installed through an opening in a wall.

Cost

Ductless mini-splits are cheaper to purchase and install than most central air conditioners. Also, they are cheaper to operate in comparison to a central system. Wall units are more efficient for people who just use particular rooms within their home or office or have smaller homes that don’t require much cooling. Property owners can cool a room when necessary and turn off the unit when the room no longer needs cooling. With a wall air conditioning unit, you only pay for the rooms that need cooling rather than spending the extra money to cool the entire house; areas that remain vacant and unused.

Maintenance

Ductless mini-splits are much easier to repair and cheaper to replace compared to a central air system. You just replace the individual wall unit rather than buying a brand new air conditioner.  Also, when a central air conditioner system breaks down, you are stuck dealing with the undesirable indoor air quality. However, if a wall unit stops working, you can simply move to a different room that has a functioning unit while repairs for the malfunctioned AC is ongoing.

Lifespan

Depending on the make and model of the AC unit, mini-splits can last up to 12 years or more. It also depends on how well the unit was maintained and the frequency of its usage. Smaller sized brands, or lower-end wall AC units tend to last a maximum of 9 to 10 years. For models such as these, it is not advisable to pay for repairs if they break down. Even though AC systems are more affordable nowadays, it is better to buy a brand new AC unit than waste your money on expensive maintenance.

Professional Service

Ductless mini-splits do break down from time to time just like any other ordinary house equipment. It is good to be positive about replacing your mini-split unit before it stops working, especially if it the only means you have to cool your home or office. Do not be stuck in the hot damp, sticky weather this summer without good indoor cooling.

Instead, ensure that your mini-split is inspected or replaced before something like this takes place. The moment a wall air-conditioner device shows signs of damage or malfunction, call a licensed HVAC technician to inspect or service it as soon as possible. Indications of possible breakdown include clinking sounds, burning smells, strange sounds, and decreased or stained performance.
