Our Approach to Ductless Heating

These systems are not for everybody
When they are a good fit, there is no better fit
Everybody starts out nervous about the "look" and they always end up loving them
Most homes can have large spaces or multiple rooms done by one well placed unit
Oregon is a perfect climate for heat pumps of any kind and ductless heat pumps in particular
The ability to vary the output of the HVAC system and only run zones as they are needed is the future of residential heating and cooling
We believe Daikin stands alone as the undisputed and long time leader of this industry
GreenTech participates in continual factory training to stay on top of advances in the technology
Our Installations are precise and we follow Factory Guidelines and industry "best practices" to ensure equipment life and performance
Manufactures claim 80% of heat pump failures are due to poor installation, our methods keep us in the 20% side of the debate
Quieter, More efficient, More Comfortable, More Control and Less Stress are the main reasons we love ductless...

 

 

 

Daikin Ductless "Mini-Split" Heat Pumps

 

GreenTech is an expert installer of the Daikin Mini-Split Heat Pumps in the Portland area

daikin mini split heat pumpOften called "Mini Split" units, they are a great solution for homeowners who want to create separate zones for heating and cooling, or for those who want more control over temperatures throughout the home.

Ductless units are the most energy efficient version of an "Air to Air" heat pump you can purchase. These remarkably quiet heat pumps and air conditioners can be placed anywhere around the home without being heard indoors or by the neighbors. When compared to traditional outdoor units there is no comparison. Ductless units are a whisper while operating, while traditional outdoor units can easily create a "noise issue" .

This type of heating and cooling can be a perfect solution for all multi-story homes, old and new. Many homes in the Northwest have duct work designed to heat the home well, but are not built with cooling the home in mind. What this leads to is very cold lower levels and uncomfortably hot bedroom levels. This common complaint can be avoided by a well designed Ductless heat pump or air conditioner. An added bonus built into these units are their ability to filter and dehumidify the indoor air year round. Possibly the best feature a ductless system has to offer is it's ability to vary it's output of energy. If it has a heavy work load during extreme weather it will run at it's higher output levels. When the weather or the demand on the unit is mild the unit will adjust down and only use as much energy as it needs to maintain a proper temperature. It's not and all or nothing piece of equipment.

The high energy savings Ductless units provide allow them to qualify for Federal and State Tax Credits, along with local rebates.

Heat Pumps & Air Conditioining

We know a properly installed heat pump is a great way for homeowners to "green up" their house. Even below freezing there is enough energy in the outside air to heat your home. It takes very little energy to move that heat from outside to inside. When Summertime hits, the unit reverses it's flow and pulls the heat out of the house. It's an Air conditioner too.

Bad installations have given heat pumps a questionable reputation. Often the heat pump was blamed instead of the technician who did a poor job of installing it. Many installation shortcuts taken by the HVAC company end up causing unnecessary breakdowns, loud operation and wasted energy. Today the units are built better and the factory training is much better.

New technology allows us to install very quiet, reliable and energy saving heat pump systems.
