Mini-Split AC Systems Sales Growth Is Slowing
Some larger VRF-style commercial systems continue to grow at higher rates, but their numbers in the U.S. remain small at only 28,000 units per year.
A bright small bright spot for the segment can be seen with accelerated growth in denser urban areas.
While the mini split segment has posted impressive growth rates in the U.S. since 2005, the growth rates have been softening recently and the biggest ductless segment (small, single zone systems) have not grown at all since 2010. These sales remain stable at about 260,000 units per year, or only about 4% of total unitary AC shipments.
Why Is Mini-Split System BTU Important? And What Do I Need?
Just like a traditional HVAC system, BTU’s determine the size of the property that a system can cool. Whether you are installing a conventional or mini-split system, you need to make sure that you are installing a heating and cooling system that can provide the temperature control the size of your space.
The only way to know exactly how many BTUs your unit needs to be is to consult with an HVAC contractor in your area, as it may depend on other factors like the placement of the unit, climate, insulation, etc. For a rough estimate, you can calculate 17 to 24 BTUs per square foot of the desired living space.
But here are general guidelines to give you an idea on the number of BTUs your ductless mini-split heating and cooling system may need to cover your house.
Area To Be Cooled (SF) Unit Size Capacity (BTUs Per Hour)
700 – 1,000 1.5 Tons 18,000
1,000 – 1,200 1.5 or 2 Tons 21,000
1,200 – 1,400 2 Tons 23,000
1,400 – 1,500 2 – 2.5 Tons 24,000
1,500 – 2,000 2.5 Tons 30,000
2,000 – 2,500 3 Tons 34,000

What is a SEER rating and How Does it Affect Cost?
The SEER, or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, impact the final cost. The higher the SEER rating the more efficient the unit.
If you are someone that wants to keep their operating costs to a minimum or want to conserve energy then a higher SEER rating is the way to go. The higher ratings translate into lower energy costs but also higher unit prices. These ratings vary from the federally regulated minimum of 13 up to 26+. Trane heat pump mini-splits have ratings as high as 38. So, while picking a unit with higher SEER rating will increase the cost of the installation it will lower the cost of operation over the life of the mini-split AC system
