Hot water is something you don’t often think about until it runs out. Then, there’s an immediate problem that inconveniences everyone. Take the daily morning routine in our house, involving two teenagers and two adults, all having to get ready for work and school. We need to get four people cleaned up and out the door, and there is nothing worse than stepping into a shower, getting soaped up, and having the hot water run out. It’s even worse in the winter, when the water rapidly goes from toasty to frigid in the blink of an eye. You can only imagine the arguments that have gone on, the timers set to encourage shorter showers, the debates over who gets to shower first, and the rest- all over managing our hot water.

Everyone wants to save money and feel more comfortable at home. But with an older air conditioning system, that can be a tricky combination to achieve. You can adjust the thermostat to produce cooler air, but your energy bills go up accordingly but then sometimes the thermostat doesn't help at all, especially if the system has seen better days.  So then what do you do?

Mitsubishi Electric's ductless system takes a great idea and makes it even better. Maybe you've read a little about mini-split heat and air systems online, or read some of our other blogs, but you still aren't sure what makes this system so great. Well besides it being one of the fastest growing technologies in the U.S. right now, there are some other prominent features that you should know more about:

Owning a historic home is a labor of love. They require special care and preservation, and their climate control needs are nothing short of special. But Mitsubishi ductless heating and cooling systems, also called mini-split units, bridge the gap between old and new to make a historic home comfortable without losing the charm and integrity of the structure. Let's just say you get the best of both worlds!
