Central Air Conditioning VS Mini-Splits UPDATED 2023

by

As summer approaches, many homeowners are considering options to keep their homes cool and comfortable. Two popular choices for people looking to move up from window or portable air conditioners are mini-split air conditioning and traditional central air conditioning. In this article, we will compare the benefits of each system and help you decide which one is best for your home.

Energy Efficiency Differences:

One of the most significant differences between mini-split air conditioning and traditional central air conditioning is energy efficiency. Mini-split systems are typically considerably more energy-efficient than central air conditioning systems. Depending on the type of split system you have installed, they may be two to four times more efficient to run than central air.

Additionally, mini-split systems can be zoned, meaning they can cool only the areas of the home that need it. This can save energy and reduce cooling costs by as much as 30% compared to traditional central air conditioning systems which pump the same temperature air throughout centralized ductwork.

Versatility:

Mini-split air conditioning systems are versatile and can be installed in a variety of locations. They are ideal for homes without ductwork, as well as for room additions, garages, and other spaces that are difficult to cool with a central air conditioning system. However, if you are installing in a home which already has existing ductwork a central heat pump can be used, which will still best traditional central air on energy efficiency every time.

Furthermore, mini-split systems can be easily installed in older homes without the need for extensive remodeling. They are quieter than traditional central air conditioning systems, as the condenser unit is located outside the home, significantly reducing noise levels indoors.

Cost:

Depending on the layout of your home, the upfront cost of installing a mini-split system may exceed that of installing central AC. However, if your home is lacking ductwork, that is a significant cost adder for central air. Additionally, with 2-4x better efficiency with mini-splits over central AC, most homeowners will see this difference pay itself back within a couple of summers.

Also, homeowners in Massachusetts have lots of state incentives which can help reduce the cost of mini-split installation. Mass Save is still offering their $10,000 whole home rebate, and this year they announced that the 0% interest 7-year heat loan maximum would be increased to $50,000.

Conclusion:

In summary, mini-split air conditioning systems offer many benefits over traditional central air conditioning systems. They are typically more energy-efficient, more versatile, and are more quiet to operate. However, the cost savings and energy efficiency of mini-split systems may vary depending on the size of the home and the number of indoor units needed to cool it.

Ultimately, the decision between mini-split air conditioning and traditional central air conditioning will depend on your individual needs and budget. We recommend consulting with a qualified HVAC contractor to help you make an informed decision about which system is best for your home.
