Mitsubishi Mini-Splits

There is a new type of HVAC system that is taking the industry by storm.  It is the mini-split ductless HVAC system.  The mini splits are small, quiet and unobtrusive while providing top of the line energy efficiency. 

There are several companies producing mini splits, but Mitsubishi is the leader, providing a powerhouse of energy efficiency with a 26 SEER ductless system. 

What does SEER stand for?
The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio rating system was developed as a performance standard by the combined efforts between the U.S. government and equipment manufacturers with the intent to create a rating system that is easily understood by the public.

What Do The Numbers Mean?
The number that is associated with a SEER rating measures the British thermal units per hour of cooling or heating, per watt of electricity. The higher the number, the more efficiently a product will produce cool air compared to a product with a lower number.

Today, a standard system has a rating of 13 SEER.  Mitsubishi’s ductless mini-splits have up to a 26 SEER rating.  That’s double the efficiency of a standard unit. 

Some benefits of owning a Mitsubishi ductless system are:

Mitsubishi Mini Split units incorporate eco-comfort technology, dual and triple-allergen filtration, and are whisper-quiet.
Eco-comfort technology makes these systems smarter in how they use energy and minimizes their impact on the environment. Plus there are many advanced features like the i-see™ Sensor, that automatically detects room temperature differences and adjusts for greater comfort. Mitsubishi Electric's advanced multi-stage filtration systems dramatically reduce allergens and help eliminate odors. And our indoor units operate with sound levels starting as low as 19dB(A). That sound is even quieter than a human whisper.

New technology revolutionizes the heat pump.
Unlike older, inefficient heat pumps, there is no cold air delivery with Mitsubishi Electric's Cooling & Heating systems. Larger coils heat faster, and the Hot StartTM system doesn't activate the fan until the desired temperature is reached so it never blows cold air. What's more, select models use Hyper-Heating INVERTER (H2i®)technology that operates effectively down to -13º F. With this improvement these models give true year-round comfort from a single system. Even with this amazing cold weather performance, there are no energy consuming electric resistance heating elements to increase your utility bills.

These units provide easy installation, simple service and longer warranties.
Mitsubishi Electric's units are easy to install with little or no ductwork. They're also designed for easy servicing. Although, with our industry-leading reliability record, you won't have to worry much about that. Better yet, we've extended our warranties to seven years on compressors and five years on parts.
Some of the featured components of the systems include the following items:
INVERTER-driven compressor systems use only the exact amount of energy needed to cool or heat an area. So you can save energy and money while enjoying complete control over your comfort year-round.
Standard and enhanced filtration systems provide air filtration that utilizes washable filters that can last up to 10 years; this feature is good both for you and the environment. Hybrid Catechin and blue-enzyme filters contained in each indoor unit remove allergens; each room has its own filter, therefore preventing cross contamination of air from room to room. Select systems incorporate an additional Platinum Catalyst filter for additional odor elimination.

Mitsubishi Mini-Split systems are perfect for a home office addition or your home gym.
