My apartment is well over numerous hundred years old, just over numerous thoUSAnd square feet as well as just about impossible to keep comfortable.
I live in an section that suffers through sub zero temperatures during winters that tend to last for numerous to numerous weeks.
The Springtime as well as fall seasons are usually chilly as well as wet as well as then the summers subject us to horrendous heat as well as humidity. Heating as well as cooling are a necessity. In our huge apartment with outdated windows, insufficient insulation as well as high ceilings, temperature control is harshly lavish. I have a forced air oil furnace as well as central a/c installed however the idea struggles. The length as well as age of the ductwork makes it susceptible to leaks; Despite constant investments into duct repair, cleaning as well as sealing, the idea correctly sacrifices about twenty percent of the conditioned air. This loss forces the oil furnace as well as a/c to run for long cycles, use up a lot of energy as well as cost myself and others a luck in energy bills. If the maximum amount of heated/cooled air isn’t arriving at the intended destination, the rooms assume chilly in the Winter time as well as hot in the summer. I am conscientious about increasing filters as well as scheduling professional maintenance, however it’s not enough. After adding fans as well as perspiring in the Summer as well as plugging in space heating systems in the Winter time for numerous years, I finally had enough. I contacted a local Heating as well as Air Conditioning supplier, explained our complications as well as asked for a recommendation. He recommended that I install a ductless cut system. A single outdoor compressor connects to numerous indoor air handlers installed in numerous rooms. The idea provides both heating as well as cooling, supplementing the whole-house system, as well as allows for zoned control. I’m now able to target heating or cooling into particular areas to ensure ideal comfort.
