Ductless Air Systems
Ductless Mini-Split Systems
No ductwork? No problem! Ductless air systems, also known as ductless mini-split heat pumps, provide efficient electric heating & cooling without relying on traditional forced air ductwork. These systems are an excellent solution for homes with temperature inconsistencies, older construction, or new additions.
Schultheis Bros. is a trusted provider of ductless air systems in Pittsburgh, Greensburg, and throughout Western Pennsylvania. As a Mitsubishi Electric Elite Diamond Dealer, our team delivers expert design, installation, and service to help homeowners achieve reliable comfort in every room.
What Is a Ductless Air System?
A ductless air system uses three primary components to deliver heating and cooling directly to specific areas of your home:
- An outdoor unit that manages heat transfer
- One or more indoor units mounted in individual rooms
- A remote or wall-mounted controller for room-specific comfort
Instead of pushing air through ducts, ductless systems deliver heating and cooling exactly where it is needed. This allows for precise temperature control, improved efficiency, and flexible installation options.
Where can a Ductless Air System be used?
Ductless systems are ideal for that room in your home that is either always too hot or too cold. Many Pittsburgh homes benefit from ductless technology due to older layouts, additions, and unique architectural features.
Ductless systems are commonly used in:
- Rooms that are always too hot or too cold
- Enclosed sunrooms
- Home additions not connected to existing ductwork
- Finished basements and attics
- Upstairs bedrooms with uneven airflow
- Offices, workout rooms, and computer rooms
These systems offer targeted comfort without disrupting your existing HVAC setup.
Benefits of Choosing a Ductless System
- Adds Comfort: Adding a ductless system can make a room a comfortable zone on hot or cold days.
- Remote Controlled: Conventional thermostats that control your whole home are a thing of the past. Control the comfort of each room individually through a portable remote control.
- Energy Efficient: Mitsubishi Electric Heating and Cooling systems use INVERTER technology that uses the exact amount of energy required to heat or cool a room.
- Environmentally Friendly: The ductless unit uses R410A refrigerant, which has zero Ozone Depletion Potential
- Slim and Silent: The outdoor unit is quiet and slender, allowing it to be placed in a wide variety of locations compared to a traditional condenser. The indoor wall unit can be painted to match your interior decor.
- Anti-Allergen Filter: The ductless unit comes with an anti-allergen filter that
can be easily removed for washing.
