Tars Mini Splits
How Mini-Splits Work
Unlike traditional systems that waste energy generating heat, mini-splits use innovative technology to move heat where you need it most. In cooling mode, they capture heat from inside your space and efficiently transfer it outside. When heating, they work in reverse—drawing warmth from the outdoor air (even in temperatures as low as -22°F!) and bringing it indoors. This process uses far less energy, saving you money on your utility bills every month.
​
By moving heat rather than creating it, mini-splits are up to 30% more cost-efficient than conventional HVAC systems. Plus, they offer the comfort you crave without the high energy costs—making them a smarter, greener choice for your home.
Why Choose a Mini-Split Over Traditional Systems
One of the biggest advantages of mini-split systems is that they don't require ductwork. Traditional HVAC systems can lose up to 30% of their energy through leaky or poorly insulated ducts, but mini-splits avoid this problem entirely. This not only makes them more energy-efficient but also reduces installation costs, as there's no need for complex ductwork installation.
​
In addition, eliminating ductwork improves indoor air quality. Dust, allergens, and contaminants often accumulate in ducts and get circulated throughout the home. Mini-splits deliver air directly to each room, helping maintain a cleaner and healthier environment.
​
Mini-splits also offer zoned comfort control. With separate indoor units, you can adjust the temperature in each room independently, allowing for customized comfort throughout your home. No more heating or cooling unused spaces—just efficient, targeted comfort where you need it.
Energy Efficiency and Savings
Mini-split systems offer incredible energy efficiency, thanks to their use of advanced inverter technology. Unlike traditional HVAC systems that constantly turn on and off, mini-splits with inverter technology adjust their output to match your home's needs. This means they use only the energy required to maintain a consistent temperature, resulting in lower energy consumption and fewer temperature fluctuations. By avoiding energy spikes, mini-splits are more efficient, saving you money on your utility bills.
​
In addition to energy savings, there are financial incentives available for installing mini-splits. Homeowners can qualify for rebates of up to $1,800 per zone, making it more affordable to upgrade to a mini-split system. On top of that, there’s a federal tax credit of 30% of the installation cost, up to $2,000, which can significantly reduce your upfront investment.
​
With inverter technology and these generous incentives, mini-splits are not only a smarter and greener choice for your home but also a cost-effective one.
Comfort and Flexibility
Mini-splits provide consistent comfort by maintaining a steady temperature rather than cycling on and off like traditional systems. This means fewer temperature swings and more even distribution of heated or cooled air.
​
Since mini-splits can be installed in individual rooms, they offer unparalleled flexibility. Homeowners can customize the climate of each room, reducing energy usage in unoccupied areas. Plus, their quiet operation ensures they don't disrupt your living space.
