Why Go Ductless?

Ducted furnace systems have been the industry standard for almost a century. These systems can carry air throughout a home to make sure it is evenly heated and cozy. However, heating an entire room is far more expensive than heating each room individually. Ductless systems provide high-efficiency heat on a budget.

Ductless systems can offer advantages such as:

  • Localized climate control
  • Reduced carbon emissions
  • Total efficiency for heat delivery
  • Simple installation
  • Improved air quality

What Maintenance Do Ductless Mini-Splits Require?

Ductless mini-split systems, like any HVAC system, require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance and longevity. 

Here are some common maintenance tasks for ductless mini-split systems:

  • Clean or Replace Filters: This is one of the most important maintenance tasks. Clean or replace the indoor unit's filters regularly (typically every 1-3 months). Clogged filters reduce efficiency and air quality.
  • Clean the Indoor Unit: Dust and debris can accumulate on the indoor unit's coils and blower wheel. Periodically clean these components to ensure proper airflow and efficiency. You may need to remove the unit's cover to access these parts.
  • Check the Outdoor Unit: Inspect the outdoor unit for debris, such as leaves, dirt, or snow. Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear to ensure proper ventilation and airflow.
  • Check Refrigerant Levels: Low refrigerant levels can affect system efficiency. If you notice a significant drop in cooling or heating performance, it may indicate a refrigerant leak. Consult a professional technician to address this issue.
  • Inspect and Clean Condensate Drain Line: Make sure the condensate drain line is clear and not clogged. A clogged drain can cause water leakage and reduce system efficiency.
  • Inspect Wiring and Electrical Components: Regularly check the electrical connections and wiring to ensure they are secure and undamaged.
  • Inspect and Clean the Fans: Check the fans in both the indoor and outdoor units. Clean the blades and ensure they are functioning correctly. Dirty or damaged fans can reduce efficiency.
  • Schedule Professional Maintenance: While you can perform some basic maintenance tasks yourself, it's a good idea to schedule professional maintenance at least once a year. A qualified HVAC technician can thoroughly inspect and service your ductless mini-split system, ensuring that it operates efficiently and identifying any potential issues.
  • Calibrate Thermostats: If you have multiple indoor units in a multi-zone system, make sure the thermostats are calibrated correctly to maintain consistent and comfortable temperatures in each zone.
  • Seal Any Leaks Around Indoor Units: Ensure that there are no air leaks around the indoor units where they are mounted on walls. Proper sealing helps maintain the system's efficiency.

Remember that maintenance needs may vary depending on factors such as the environment, system usage, and the manufacturer's recommendations. 

Always refer to your system's user manual for specific maintenance guidelines and consult with a professional HVAC technician for comprehensive maintenance and servicing. 

Regular maintenance can help extend the life of your ductless mini-split system and keep it running efficiently.
