At Confort Expert in Montreal, our experienced team knows a thing or two about air conditioning! In this article, we outline the elements to consider when determining the most appropriate place to install this device.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, ductless mini-split systems can be configured in multiple ways. You can have one or several indoor air-handling units fed by a single outdoor compressor. The mini-split\u2019s job is to maintain a comfortable temperature in every room of your home. The compressor inside the unit ensures optimal comfort throughout the year by adjusting the heating and cooling functions.<\/p>\n<h2>Elements to consider<\/h2>\n<p>Installing a mini-split air conditioner is relatively straightforward. Unlike a central cooling system, the location of the indoor unit isn\u2019t dictated by ductwork. However, since the indoor unit is visible, it\u2019s important to carefully consider where to place it.<\/p>\n<p>The best location for a mini-split air conditioner is one that allows the unit to circulate air as efficiently as possible. Additionally, the air filter should be easily accessible so it can be cleaned regularly. Moreover, the indoor air handler should be placed where it can easily be connected to the outdoor unit and facilitate the installation of the condensate drain.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also important to consider the location of the outdoor unit. Ideally, it should be placed at a reasonable distance from the indoor unit, on a hard, flat surface. There must also be enough space for adequate air circulation.<\/p>\n<p>Mini-split air conditioners are generally recommended for room additions, new builds, converted spaces and older, ductless properties. They can also be used as a complement to a forced-air system.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s best to mount your air conditioner on a vertical outdoor wall at the manufacturer&#8217;s recommended distance from the floor or ceiling to maximize its performance and efficiency. Place it away from heat sources and in a place where air circulation is optimal.<\/p>\n<h2>Trust Confort Expert for expert installation<\/h2>\n<p>For the best results, nothing beats the know-how of a professional.
