An air conditioning system is an invaluable appliance to have in your home. It will help enhance the comfort levels in your home when it's quite hot outside. However, there's a variety when it comes to air conditioners. That means not every type of air conditioner will work ideally for your home.
Therefore, you need to evaluate a few things when choosing an air conditioning system for your home. Among the major decisions you will have to make is selecting between a ductless and a ducted system. Both of these types of air conditioning systems have their pros and cons. However, here are some key reasons why you should consider the latter.
1. Ducted Air Conditioning Systems Offer Consistent Cooling Throughout Your Home
At the touch of a button, you can cool your entire home, thanks to the central temperature control of ducted air conditioning systems. The refrigerated air will be pumped through the series of ducts and into the vents installed in various rooms. Split systems only allow you to cool the rooms or areas in which they are installed.
That means you may have to close off some areas to enhance the efficiency of the system. Also, installing split systems in every room can be quite costly, which means you may have to forego some areas. Ducted air conditioning is more flexible and conducive in this regard.
2. Ducted Air Conditioning Systems Are Quieter
Most of the modern air conditioning systems are designed to minimise noise pollution. However, split systems rely on multiple outdoor units, which can be a little noisier than their ducted counterparts. That's because, for a ducted system, the noise-producing components are often hidden in the ceiling or even under the floor. That greatly reduces the level of noise this type of air conditioning system produces.
3. Ducted Air Conditioning Systems Are Less Intrusive on Your Interior Design
Split systems tend to intrude into the look of your rooms. That's because the indoor units are quite large and highly visible. The vents of ducted systems, on the other hand, are smaller and installed on your ceiling or floor, unlike split systems that are installed on the walls. That means only the smallest part of ducted air conditioning systems is visible. Therefore, if you are concerned about aesthetics, particularly the interior décor of your home being affected by the wall units of split systems, ducted air conditioning systems would be the ideal solution for your home.

Hello! My name is Jake. I am the kind of guy who finds out about a subject and then who must learn everything he can about it. A subject I have focused on in recent times is HVAC. This might seem a little strange. However, my interest was sparked when an HVAC contractor visited my home to install a new air con system. He was really friendly and he took the time to answer my questions. Since then, I have been doing everything I can to learn about HVAC. I hope you enjoy reading what I have written on my blog.
