Ductless Mini Splits
Ductless mini splits, including ductless air conditioners and ductless heat pumps, can fit in any space, even where traditional HVAC units don't. With their virtually endless configurations, ductless air conditioner and heat pump products deliver comfort with minimal visual impact. Ductless heating and cooling systems are different from traditional split systems because they come in all shapes and sizes, and don’t require ducts inside your walls. These wall mounted air handlers are flexible and work wherever you need them.
What to Look for in Ductless Mini Split Systems
Researching ductless mini split systems, but not sure what to look for? Carrier can help you find the best mini split for your home. For further reading, check out our guides to popular ductless applications and the specifics on installing ductless AC systems.
Ductless mini split systems can be configured with either one or multiple indoor units (multi zone system) powered by a single inverter controlled, variable-speed outdoor unit to bring comfort anywhere in your home, including room additions, sunrooms, and garages. The inverter compressor ensures maximum comfort in any season by continuously adjusting heating and cooling capacities to meet your specific needs.
Because there are no ducts, installation is a breeze—no tearing open walls, patching, or repainting required! And the outdoor unit powers the indoor units, so there is no need for additional wiring.
Older homes weren’t built to accommodate the ductwork of standard modern air conditioning systems. With a ductless system, you can preserve the integrity of your home’s architecture without having to carve out spaces for ducts and vents.
By selecting specific rooms to heat or cool, energy use is concentrated in the areas you choose. Plus, ductless systems can offset the energy loss of older homes by continuously adjusting heating and cooling capacities to best match current conditions.

What Is a Ductless Mini Split System?
Take a closer look at the question, and you’ll find the answer. It’s ductless because it’s a heating and cooling system that requires no ductwork; it’s a split system because there is a separate indoor air handling unit and outdoor unit; and it’s mini because the units are smaller than a typical central air system.
Or, when you ask the question, “What is a ductless air conditioner?”, you could simply say it’s the most versatile, easy-to-install HVAC system available that delivers comfort where standard central air can’t.
