In the Denver metro area, some homeowners reside in charming older houses that stand as a testament to the city’s rich history and architectural diversity. While these residences exude personality and craftsmanship, they often lack the modern convenience of central heating and cooling due to the absence of ductwork. At Indoor Air Quality, Inc., we specialize in offering innovative solutions that preserve the integrity of your home’s design while ensuring year-round comfort. Among these, ductless mini-split systems stand out as an effective, energy-efficient, and aesthetically pleasing option.

Ductless Mini-Split Systems

A ductless mini-split system operates on a simple premise: individual units are mounted in different rooms, each connected to an outdoor compressor. This structure allows for precise temperature control in each area, eliminating the inefficiencies associated with traditional ducted systems.

  • Install Anywhere:
    Since they don’t require ductwork, these systems can be installed in any room, from a converted attic to a finished basement.
  • No Ductwork Required:
    One big advantage of mini-split systems is their independence from ductwork, making them perfect for older homes where installing ducts is impractical or too invasive.
  • Energy Efficiency:
    Mini-splits have advanced inverter technology that adjusts the compressor’s speed to match the room’s temperature needs accurately. This precision conserves energy and reduces utility bills.

    With zoned cooling and heating capabilities, you can set different temperatures for different areas of your home, ensuring everyone’s comfort.
