Anyone in Eastern Idaho knows how much energy it takes to stay warm during the frigid winter months. A Daikin system from Mountain West Mechanical can save you almost half of what you are currently paying to heat your home with natural gas. And the savings are even greater when you have other heat sources. See the chart below:

What is a Ductless Heat Pump System?

A Ductless heat pump is a highly efficient zonal heating and cooling system. It is easily installed as a new primary heat source for any home or business. These systems heat and cool homes at a fraction of the cost of baseboard heaters and wall heaters. Ductless heat pumps are much safer, quieter and heat rooms evenly to eliminate those hot and cold spots.

Heat pumps are one of the most energy efficient sources of heating and cooling today. So while your saving money on your electric bill, you are also saving our planet. Daikin Heat pumps use significantly less energy, therefore reducing the carbon footprint left on our environment.

Ductless systems do not require expensive and invasive duct work. They require only a three-inch opening in the wall or ceiling. Installation is as simple as mounting the indoor and outdoor units, connecting the refrigerant lines, and making a few electrical connections. Typical installation is about 4 hours.

How a heat pump works

A heat pump transfers heat using refrigerant expansion and compression within a cycle….What does that mean? It means it takes cold air and makes it warm, and takes warm air and makes it cold, when you want it and where you want it. THAT’S TECHNOLOGY!……THAT’S COMFORT!

Ductless systems have 3 main parts

1. An indoor unit, mounted on a wall
2. An outdoor unit, that sits on the ground
3. A remote control that controls the unit.
