Cooling systems are essential for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. From AC installations to routine maintenance, we offer a comprehensive range of cooling services. We will work together with you to ensure energy-efficient solutions tailored to your needs.
Central air conditioners are designed to provide cooling to the entirety of a home. These systems comprise of a compressor unit located outside, which channels air to an indoor coil, which then creates conditioned air that is distributed via air ducts. These ducts are then connected to vents, with each room having one that supplies cold air while the other returns existing air for recirculation. This is the most common type of cooling found in homes.
Heat pumps act very similar to central air conditioning systems, except they have dual functionality. Heat pumps also operate with outdoor compressors and indoor coils, but this process can be changed to provide heat instead of cooling. Heat pumps help make your HVAC system more efficient by streamlining both heating and cooling into one system. But this is coupled with a lighter performance. Note: To tell if your cooling system is a central air conditioner or heat pump, turn on your heating. If the outdoor unit begins working and making noise, this means you have a heat pump. Another way to tell is by finding the outdoor unit’s model number and looking it up on the internet.
As their name implies, ductless mini-split systems work without distributing air through air ducts. Instead, mini-split cooling systems utilize one outdoor compressor, with each room or area of a home having an attached indoor unit. With each area having a dedicated indoor unit, you have the advantage of more flexibility with your cooling, as you can cool only certain rooms instead of the whole house. This type of cooling system is not as common, possibly due to its initial cost being more than traditional systems. Mini-splits are more popular in other countries.
