To solve an air conditioning problem a contractor proposes to put two units in an unconditioned attic by scott gibson march 19 2018 a ducted minisplit in the attic.
Attic heating and air conditioning units.
Central air conditioning units work by taking heat from the air and cooling it down using a refrigerant.
Having it installed in the attic ensures that it is 100 percent protected from flooding caused by plumbing leaks and overflows.
Can you put your air conditioning unit in the attic with blown in insulation.
Leaks and overflows on a given floor will seep through the floors to affect everything below it including your hvac system.
It s worth looking out for a hvac system heating ventilation and air conditioning and models that have the hvac lifetime.
Attic hvac systems save space.
When you decide to trade in your room air conditioner for central air you ll have decisions to make including where.
It s hard to stop a trane life will test it.
One of the first perks you ll notice with attic heating and air conditioning units is that your home becomes much quieter.
Most updated central air conditioned homes have a new air conditioner split system meaning the ac is broken up into parts.
Ironically older duct systems which tend to be larger work best when retrofitting central air conditioning.
With so much premium placed on spaces attic conversion took off as a home remodeling fad.
Your hvac system will require shorter ducts.
Our engineers put our units through 16 weeks of extreme heat and extreme cold which equals five years of wear and tear in just a few months to get a product you.
We test it harder.
Attic hvac systems also require shorter ducts.
As the heating industry has learned more about the dynamics of airflow and sizing furnaces and delivery systems ducting has gotten smaller.
Without the units running in earshot of everyone downstairs you can enjoy robust climate control year round with whisper quiet operation because all the noise is up in the attic.
So why put an hvac system up in the attic at all.
Every trane system is seet tm tested system extreme environmental test in some of the most extreme conditions found in nature to ensure they re truly unstoppable.

Well mainly it s a way to save space.
But as has long been attested by many homeowners the most recognizable challenges that hinder the full maximization of this space is air conditioning.
