A ducted mini split can be worth it if you already have existing ductwork and want the energy efficiency of a mini split system, but it's important to weigh the pros and cons as they may not always be as efficient as a traditional ductless mini split due to potential air leaks within the ductwork; in some cases, a traditional central air system might be a better option depending on your home's layout and needs.
Does this unit come already charged with refrigerant? Yes, and the amount that is pre-charged is sufficient for the default (5 meter/16 foot) included piping kit.
Mini splits can be expensive to install primarily due to the complexity of the installation process, which often requires specialized skills, precise measurements, wall penetrations, electrical work, refrigerant line routing, and the need for qualified technicians to handle the specialized equipment, all of which contribute significantly to the labor costs involved; furthermore, the installation might require additional construction work depending on the home's layout and unique architectural features, adding to the overall cost.
A well-maintained ducted mini split system can typically last between 10 and 15 years with proper care and regular maintenance, with some units potentially lasting up to 20 years depending on factors like quality and usage patterns
Geothermal heat pumps are known for being the longest lasting HVAC systems, with lifespans of 25 to 30 years.
