If you have a heating and cooling system you’re happy with, there’s no reason to fix what isn’t broken. But if you’ve recently built an addition, converted storage space into a bonus room or office, or want to add temperature management in your sunroom or garage, it’s going to take some extra help.
A lot of families made changes to the layout of their homes over the last year by adding office space or converting under-utilized space to get more out of it. Relying on your existing system to compensate for conditioning the extra square footage will only make the rest of your home uncomfortable, drive up your monthly utility bills, and put unnecessary wear and tear on your home’s systems.
Instead, we recommend installing a mini split heat pump to help compensate for the added space. These units are quiet, quick to install, and highly efficient.
Why We Love Mini Splits for Additions, Bonus Rooms, and More
Regardless of the brand or type of your existing heating and cooling systems, it was carefully sized and customized to fit the layout of your home. The very nature of an addition is to change the layout of your residence, which can make an enormous difference and be a lot more cost effective than moving. Still, it’s important to be sure you won’t lose comfort and efficiency after the fact.
How Can Mini Splits Supplement Your HVAC?
A mini split has two main components: a wall-mounted unit, approximately 3 ft wide and 1 foot tall, and an outdoor compressor. The unit finds trace amounts of heat outside and uses a refrigerant to bring it into your home (while filtering your air as well).
When you’re looking to cool your home, the heating process works in reverse, moving heat from inside your home to the outdoors safely and very quietly.
