The flexible, mini-ductwork can be retrofitted into the home.
My home is located in the historic district of the city and was constructed in the early 1800’s. The property features the original hardwood floors, doors, moldings and mantle. There are high ceilings, big windows and gorgeous antique light fixtures. I love sitting on the wide back porch and enjoying the view of the lake. The weather in our local area creates some difficulties. The house was never equipped with conventional ductwork. For a few years, we tried to achieve comfort by way of a series of window air conditioners, box fans and electric heaters. The house felt overheated and sticky in the summer and chilly all winter. The heating and cooling components detracted from aesthetics, weren’t effective and cost quite a bit in energy bills. We needed to make some improvements. I began looking into alternatives and came across high velocity heating and cooling. This type of system was specifically designed for older homes without ductwork. Rather tearing down walls and ceilings, making a huge mess and compromixing the historical integrity, we invested into high velocity temperature control. The unit is compact enough to fit into a closet. The flexible, mini-ductwork can be retrofitted into the home. It can be threaded into existing walls and ceilings and around electrical boxes, plumbing pipes and studs without causing damage. The smaller ductwork is insulated to prevent energy waste and introduces heated or cooled air into the home at a very high rate of speed.It can quickly raise or lower room temperature. The shorter run times help to keep heating and cooling costs to a minimum.
