A floor-mounted mini-split system has an outdoor compressor and an indoor air handler that you install near the floor. The two units are connected by a refrigerant line that runs through a small hole in your wall.
Floor-Mounted Mini Split Benefits
The floor-mounted mini split air handler is also in a better position to heat or cool a room's occupants. Compared to a ceiling—or wall-mounted system, the cool or heated air released by a floor-mounted ductless system allows people in the room to feel the airflow more quickly.
When To Choose A Floor-mounted Ductless Split System
Floor-mounted mini splits are great options for specialized situations like:
- Rooms with low ceilings or high windows
- Limited wall space areas or rooms where there isn't enough space for a wall-mounted unit
- Rooms like attic bedrooms and other spaces with slanted ceilings
