High-Efficiency Heating & Cooling Savings
Savings vary based on home size, insulation, energy source, and system design
Clean Heating & Cooling with Ductless Mini-Splits
Ductless mini-splits are air source heat pumps that move heat rather than generate it through combustion
or electric resistance. This makes them significantly more efficient than many older heating systems,
including oil, propane, and electric baseboard heat.
These systems are especially effective when paired with proper insulation and zoning strategies.
Because each indoor unit operates independently, you only heat or cool the spaces you actually use.
Flexible System Design
Indoor units are available in wall-mounted, ceiling cassette, and floor-mounted styles to match the
layout and aesthetics of your home. Most systems include remote controls and advanced comfort features.
Cold-Climate Heating with Mitsubishi Hyper-Heating
For homeowners seeking dependable winter performance, Mitsubishi Electric Hyper-Heating systems are
engineered to deliver heat at lower outdoor temperatures. These systems are well-suited for Albany’s
climate when properly designed and installed.
How Zoned Control Benefits Your Home
Most homes cannot be evenly heated or cooled with a single thermostat—especially multi-level homes or
homes with additions. Zoned control allows each area to operate independently, improving comfort and
reducing wasted energy.
Many Mitsubishi ductless systems are ENERGY STAR® qualified depending on model configuration.
