In this video we are going over the basics of ductless mini splits. Our goal is to provide you, the consumer, with a step-by-step buying guide. By following these simple steps, you will be able to make a more informed decision.
Step 1. Start by looking at the square footage of the room and determine the BTU of the indoor units.
Ductless mini splits are rated for specific heating and cooling capacity. The first thing to do is look at the rooms that you want to install the units in. Depending upon the size of the room, number of occupants in that room, the ceiling height, and external heat loads from the windows; you can size the indoor unit size based on total expected heat load.
As a rule of thumb, most bedrooms should use the 9000 BTU unit. Most master bedrooms should use the 12000 BTU unit. And most living room and kitchen areas should use the 18000 BTU unit.
