Home in Westfield NJ, Installed Ducted and Ductless System
In a mid-1960s home located in Westfield, NJ, the homeowner faced ongoing issues with their air conditioning system, which had ultimately failed after years of underperformance. The previous system, while functional, was outdated and never fully met the cooling needs of the entire house. One particular area of the home was consistently uncomfortable, as it never reached the desired temperature, leaving the homeowners frustrated during hot weather.
Upon consultation, ICS conducted a comprehensive analysis of the home’s cooling load and duct distribution, identifying that the root of the problem was a mismatched system that was not appropriately sized for the ductwork. Recognizing the need for a solution that would provide consistent comfort throughout the home, ICS recommended and installed a new air conditioning system that was correctly sized for the existing ductwork. Additionally, to address the specific problem area, ICS installed a ductless system. By utilizing a Mitsubishi Smart Multi unit, ICS was able to install both a ducted and a ductless indoor unit on the same system, ensuring even and efficient cooling across all areas of the house.
