RYCOR
HOW IT WORKS
Need to Improve Your Hudson Valley Home’s HVAC?
Homeowners in the Hudson Valley experiencing high energy bills or needing an upgrade for their HVAC system will find a heat pump is much better suited to provide cooling and heating than traditional systems.
Heat pumps, like the ductless mini-split system, kick out both air conditioning and heating through the same unit by transferring air between the indoors and outdoors of your home.
How does this work?
During the hotter months, the unit transfers the heat from your home outside to keep you cool. The refrigerant line absorbs the heat from the room and moves it outdoors, leaving the cool air to circulate throughout the room via the indoor unit.
In the cold winter months, the unit transfers the heat from the outdoors to indoors, allowing you to maintain warmth.

ADVANTAGES OF MINI-SPLITS
Discover Energy-Saving Comfort with Mini-Splits solutions
More Energy Efficient Than Other Systems
Ductless mini-split systems are a modern technology that thousands of New York homeowners are installing in their homes. They’re energy-efficient (up to 160-390% more efficient than gas-burning furnaces), perform both cooling and heating, and are quick for our Rycor team to install; you’ll have yours ready to go with a same-day installation.
Each room (or zone) is equipped with an indoor unit connected to an exterior compressor. This is how heat is transferred from inside the home to the outdoors (cooling) and how heat is transferred from the outdoors into the home (heating). These ductless units are typically positioned on a wall in your room or near the floor, providing the most optimal airflow to cool or heat each room to your desired temperature throughout the year.
Transferring, versus manufacturing, heat requires less energy–making mini splits more efficient than traditional AC and heating systems.
Better for the Environment
Mini-splits transfer heat, versus traditional HVAC systems which manufacture heat–for example, by burning fossil fuels. Ductless mini-splits don’t use any fossil fuels or alternative energy sources to warm your home. As a result, they save on fuel bills while also keeping the environment safer.
Zone Control for Every Room in Your Hudson Valley Home
Unlike traditional AC and heating systems, you get to decide where the heating and cooling runs! Zone control makes it possible to heat or cool each area of the home and is amazing for those pockets in your home that don’t match the temperature in the rest of the house. Since each zone is controlled by its own air handling unit, you’re in control.
Mini-splits can be installed anywhere in the home and you can adjust the temperature in each room where the units are installed. If you’re going to spend some time in the living room, only heat the living room. Going to be cooking in the kitchen? Cool it down! Even if you have guests over in the living room and they want to be cooler, you can keep that room’s temperature down while keeping other areas of the home warmer.
Each room’s temperature can be adjusted!
Control Your Mini-Split from Anywhere with Your Phone
Using the app that comes with your mini-split installation, you can turn each unit on or off or adjust the temperature for each unit directly from the app’s hub. If you’re at the office and want things nice and toasty when you get back, just press a button. Forgot to turn it off before you left for a trip? No need to worry, you can just turn it off with a quick connection to a WiFi network.
The choice is yours when you have a mini-split system installed in your home, which makes it so much easier than a traditional heating or AC system.
Rebates Available!
Local utility companies are providing rebates for having a ductless mini-split system installed since it helps save on energy output in the local region. You save, they save.
As a further incentive, the federal government has been providing homeowners with tax credits for installing ductless air systems in their homes through the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Why? Because mini-splits are more energy efficient and don’t use fossil fuels, which helps save the environment.
In Hudson Valley, NY, you may be eligible for rebates of up to thousands for having a Mitsubishi Electric ductless mini-split heat pump installed in your home.

QUESTIONS
FAQs For Ductless Mini-Splits
Are mini-splits more efficient than central heating and AC systems?
Traditional central air and heating systems (like furnaces) work throughout the entire home in all rooms all at once. Every single room is heated or cooled which uses a lot of energy. Not very efficient, right? Well, our ductless mini-splits have zone control, so you get to decide if you want to heat or cool each room!
How much can I save on my utility bills?
We’ve seen our customers save up to hundreds or more throughout the year after installing mini-splits in their Hudson Valley homes. Since ductless mini-splits transfer air from indoors to outdoors for cooling and move heat from outdoors to indoors they’re insanely efficient. Even in below-freezing temperatures or on the hottest days, these systems can adjust the temperature to the comfort you want. Also, they don’t use ductwork which typically results in energy loss.
Will a mini-split work in extreme temperatures?
The Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps we install run even in some of the coldest and hottest temperatures we get in Hudson Valley, NY. Your heat pump will be able to run in below-freezing or extremely hot temperatures, making it much better than relying on a central air or heating system that will use much more energy to heat or cool the home.
Can ductless mini-splits be installed in older homes?
Absolutely! This is the main highlight for ductless mini-splits. So many homes in Hudson Valley, NY are considerably older, having been built decades ago. They typically don’t have ductwork for central air or heating. However, a ductless mini-split can be installed in any room of the home no matter what age the home is. Also, remember that the ductless side of mini-splits means that you don’t lose any energy output which is common for homes with ductwork.
Do I need maintenance for my mini-split?
We always recommend getting maintenance checkups for mini-splits to keep them running smoothly and at high efficiency. Having an annual preventative maintenance check scheduled is a good idea so you can keep your bills low and your comfort high throughout the year. We offer this in Hudson Valley!
Can I install a mini-split myself?
Lots of homeowners try to go the DIY route for ductless mini-split installation, but there are huge costs to this.
1: You have to research which ductless mini-split will be the best for your home.
2: You need experience in understanding BTUs, where to place the unit, and how to connect it to the outdoor condenser unit. Not to mention that there are several lines that run between the indoor and outdoor unit for electrical and refrigerant that need to be well-insulated to get the best efficiency. We don’t recommend installing this yourself since our expert installers know how to install it in your home, and they can make it look aesthetically pleasing for the room, so wires are sticking out on your wall.
3: You’ll have to do your own planning, research, and paperwork for rebates.
4: You need to go through the red tape of acquiring a permit for the unit if one is required.
Why should I install a ductless mini-split instead of a conventional central air or heating system?
There are many advantages of upgrading to a ductless mini-split system instead of updating a traditional AC or heating system. Energy savings is the biggest advantage along with protecting the environment. Traditional AC or heating systems can result in energy loss through the use of ductwork to move air throughout the house. Ever felt pockets in your home that aren’t the right temp? Never experience this discomfort again! Heating systems like furnaces typically burn fossil fuels, causing harm to the environment; mini-split heat pumps don’t use any.
What are BTUs?
Air systems use BTUs (British Thermal Unit) to measure the amount of energy required to heat 1 pound of liquid water by 1° Fahrenheit. Essentially, the higher the BTU of the system, the more energy it can use to heat your home. In reverse (for air conditioning) it represents the energy used to remove heat from the home. BTUs are what we consider when helping you choose the right system for your home based on square footage. But there are other factors to consider per room such as the ceiling height, insulation, size of the room, etc. Our experts help you choose the right system for your home no matter where you need it.
Are mini-splits noisy?
Not at all! The fear that many homeowners have is installing a system that makes a ton of noise, disrupting your daily life. Luckily, that’s just not an issue with mini-splits. They typically run at 20-30 decibels (dB), like a gentle whisper, for indoor units. Outdoor units are a bit louder due to their location, but still very quiet when compared to a central air system. Outdoor units can be anywhere from 30-50 dB. Your traditional central air system can be anywhere from 50-75 dB.
