Do you have rooms or buildings on your property that are left cold during the winter? Not only does this make spare rooms, garages and outbuildings uncomfortable, it can cause other issues. Plumbing can be vulnerable to freezing and lack of heat can lead to moisture and mold problems. Adding climate control is a solution and with ductless mini-split heat pumps, you can control temperature in your separate spaces all year round.
What is a Mini-Split Heat Pump?
Heat pumps use the outside air to bring in heat or cool the air, depending on the need. They are an energy efficient option for heating and cooling, but most are large and used with a duct system. Mini-split heat pumps are much smaller and designed to offer the same efficiency for smaller spaces. There are only two components and no ductwork – just an outside compressor and the inside unit that emits the climate-controlled air.
Mini-split heat pumps can be used in any room or building that needs separate climate control. If you have an addition to your home that was not connected to your HVAC system or a garage without conditioning, a mini-split is perfect. It has its own controls to help manage energy costs and can be used separately to keep these spaces warm during the winter and cooler during the summer. Mini-splits can also be used to add “zones” to your home to improve climate control in certain areas.
If you want to add heat or AC to a room or small space without the expensive of connecting it to your existing HVAC system, consider a mini-split heat pump. Contact your local HVAC service provider to learn if it is the right option for your unheated space.
