How Do Ductless AC Systems Work?
Ductless air conditioners, also known as mini-split systems, consist of:
- An outdoor unit (compressor/condenser)
- One or more indoor air handlers (mounted on walls or ceilings)
- A small conduit that connects the units (carrying refrigerant, power, and drainage)
Unlike traditional HVAC systems, mini-splits don’t require ductwork, which means:
- No energy loss from ducts, increasing efficiency.
- Individual zone control, allowing customized temperatures in different rooms.
- Less intrusive installation, perfect for older homes, room additions, or commercial spaces.
Is a Ductless AC System Right for You?
Mini-split systems are a great option for many residential and commercial applications, especially where ductwork is not available or impractical.
Ductless AC Is Perfect For:
- Older Homes – Retrofitting without major renovations.
- Room Additions – Avoid extending existing ductwork.
- Garages & Basements – Improve comfort in under-cooled areas.
- Apartments & Condos – Zoned cooling for small spaces.
- Businesses & Offices – Individual temperature control for different rooms.
If you’re looking for an energy-efficient, quiet, and flexible cooling system, ductless AC is the perfect solution.

Called yesterday for appointment and technician arrived this afternoon. Extremely competent and professional. Resolved concern quickly. The service we always receive from Jonle is exemplary.
The Waterworks plumbing company provided a pleasant and efficient plumber to open up my outside drain from the street to the sump pump. They did this for me about five years ago. My service man was very professional and took care to do his best. Price increased significantly in five years but otherwise, I’m satisfied with the outcome. They did however, offer once again a senior discount.
Most reliable plumbing service in Columbus. Pricing is fair, technicians are friendly and seem to really care about fixing your situation long-term.
JonLe’s team does a fantastic job. Always friendly, clean up afterwards and respects taking care of your home. The unit is working great!

Michael came to our home today to fix a slow leak under our kitchen sink. He ended up looking at a strange sound emanating from the tub faucet in our master bathroom, quoting the replacement of several sump pumps, and a drain repair. All those quotes arrived the same day. In a world that seems to have forgotten service excellence, I give Michael and Waterworks an A+ for today’s performance.
We had issues with out lift station at one of our communities and they were able to come to the same day. Very friendly and professional. I highly recommend them!
We've used Waterworks' services for many years and they're consistently professional, timely, courteous, and proficient. Most recently, Lonnie delivered great service and advice; greatly appreciated! You may find a cheaper way to go, but for my money, they are my go to.
