Older homes (pre-1970s) often had no ductwork\nbuilt into them, and adding ductwork poses major challenges, such as using up\ncloset space and the attic. A ductless system lets a home add air conditioning\nthroughout the rooms without requiring window units or construction to put in\nductwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add-On Rooms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Expanding your square footage with a new bedroom, a den, or\na home office? You may find it\u2019s difficult to heat and cool the new space with your\ncurrent HVAC system. Instead of trying to extend the ducts or installing a new\ncentral AC and heater to handle the extra space, you can instead use a ductless\nmini split.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room Conversions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You want to turn your garage into a workshop, or the attic\ninto a bedroom. But neither of those spaces are part of the HVAC system\u2014how can\nyou make them into part of the household living space? Simple, use a ductless\nmini split. All it takes is one wall unit and a unit outside, and you\u2019ll have the\nspot cooling and heating you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Home Construction\/Remodeling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have plans to build a new home or make extensive\nchanges to your current one, you don\u2019t have to worry about pesky, space-consuming\nducts if you don\u2019t want to. Plan on using a ductless system, and you\u2019ll enjoy\nbetter freedom to design the house the way you want it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improving Indoor Air Quality for People With Asthma and Allergies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ducts are a source of numerous pollutants since they serve as a reservoir for dust and dander and lint. Whenever the central blower fan comes on, all these particles get blasted out into the living spaces. Well, a <em>ductless<\/em> system has no ducts to collect all these pollutants. This makes going ductless ideal in homes where people have allergies and asthma problems\u2014it\u2019s cleaner air for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><a href=\"\/contact\/schedule-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Call Michall Daimion Heating &amp; Air Conditioning, Inc.<\/a>, The Main Line\u2019s Premier Service Provider since 1976.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To give you a few quick examples of the usefulness of ductless mini splits, here are situations where going with a ductless installation is beneficial.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[93,92,94],"class_list":["post-454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-air-conditioning-service","tag-ductless-air-conditioning","tag-ductless-mini-split-heat-pumps","tag-phoenixville"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=454"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":458,"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454\/revisions\/458"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daimion.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
