Ductless HVAC/Zone Systems

Hey guys!

For those of you that are flipping and/or fixing up and holding..  We are renovating a house to rent out. The HVAC estimate we received was more than we were expecting because there is no crawl space/cellar and there is not a lot of room between the houses to put the unit. We started looking into other alternatives, but don't want to put in window units.. We came across these zone systems that boast being able to heat and cool a large area, have no duct work, are energy efficient, and are less than $2000. Have any of you seen or tried these new systems? Opinions, reviews, and any information would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you!!

Liz

@Liz RogersAs an HVAC Guy and investor, they are easy to install. They seem to have a more limited life span and parts cost makes me say no to a rental, but in a Flip I do do one. They also make one where u can have one outside unit and multiple heads inside for cooling different areas. If doing this in KY I hope u have another form of backup heat, or at least install a blanket heater on the compressor.
