When you're remodeling your home, you might have to consider how to heat and cool the newly built or renovated area. In such circumstances, a ductless heating and cooling system is an efficient and cost-effective choice. For those unfamiliar with this type of system, Arnica Heating and Air Conditioning, a respected Mitsubishi Electric^® Diamond Contractor^™ in Manhattan, NY, explains why you should consider a ductless system as part of your home remodel.

3 Reasons to Choose a Ductless Heating & Cooling System for Your Remodel

1. Keep Your Home Comfortable

Unlike a central system, which is operated by single sensor and thermostat, a ductless system has multiple sensors and heats and cools "zones" in your home. This means occupants of different rooms can set the temperature to their liking, giving you and your family the utmost control over comfort. It also eliminates problems like hot or cold spots in the home.

2. Reduce Energy Expenditure

A ductless heating and cooling system is exceptionally efficient, in part because it uses no ductwork. In a traditional system, much of the energy used to heat or cool the house is lost during the trip through the air ducts. In a ductless system, heating and cooling occur in the room, so heat loss is minimized, and you reduce your energy expenditure and save money on utility bills.

3. Lower Remodeling Costs

If you're installing a room addition you intend to tie into an existing traditional HVAC system, you'll have to plan, design, and construct the additional ductwork that goes along with it. A ductless heating and cooling system requires no additional venting and lowers the cost of your remodel.
