Questions about air conditioning in Lismore

A ducted system requires the use of air ducts which run from the system to each room or area within a space. Air is forced through the ductwork and out by way of vents set up in each zone. A ductless system has one or more central compressors and multiple control units that can be set up within individual units so they can be set to multiple temperatures at one time.

This will depend on your needs and the space you are heating and cooling. If you have a small home or business or open space you are probably fine with a ducted system, they are generally powerful and more economical to have installed. Larger spaces with many rooms or zones that need to be kept at varying temperatures would do better with a ductless system. A ductless mini-split system can be installed if you have a space separated from the rest of the building, such as a basement that isn’t accessible to your ductwork.

This can vary widely depending on whether you have a ductless or ducted system and how big the space is. Systems requiring ductwork typically take longer to install, because the ducts have to be run through the building’s crawl space or attic and then the main units are connected. Ductless systems do not require this so they can be installed much faster – sometimes in a matter of hours.
