The #1 benefit of a mini-split air conditioning system is the money that you’ll save by having one.
These savings are two-fold. The first is for everyone and involves the reduced electricity required to run. Because mini-splits are installed in each room, you only need to cool the room you’re currently occupying.
This, coupled with a more energy efficient system, will lower your monthly electric bill, keeping everybody happy.
The second aspect of savings is really only for smaller homes. Compared to traditional systems, ductless air conditioning is easier to install and thereby costs less money.
Instead of tearing apart your house to install a full network of ducting, mini-splits mount onto a wall with only a small whole drilled in to run lines to the outside compressor.
The reason why this isn’t as beneficial for larger homes is that mini-split units can be quite costly. If you were to add a unit to four bedrooms, your kitchen, living room, den, and an office, then you could nearly double the installation costs of a traditional system.
