What is a ductless mini-split?

A ductless mini-split, or just “mini-split,” is a heat-pump-based heating and cooling system designed to provide precise temperature control in individual rooms or zones. Unlike traditional central air systems, it does not require ductwork to distribute air but wall-mounted heads connected to outdoor condensers.

Are mini-splits good for historic Newport homes?

Yes, mini-splits are ideal for older homes that lack the space for ducts and require minimal construction to preserve historical integrity.

Can mini-splits provide heat in the winter?

Yes, high-efficiency heat pumps are designed to provide reliable warmth and are rated to handle as low as -15°F in standard configurations.

How many rooms can one condenser cover?

Ductless systems are highly flexible and can, in certain situations, cover an entire home with proper insulation and system configuration.

Are there rebates for ductless systems?

High-efficiency heat pumps and mini-splits often qualify for rebates through Rhode Island Energy and Clean Heat Rhode Island.
