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 area 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 living space.
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

Perks Of A Mini Split System
The first we already touched up, homeowners who don’t currently have ductwork in their homes, don’t have to worry about retrofitting your existing home with the needed duct and ventilation work.
This will ultimately save you thousands of dollars. Also, since these ductless heating and air conditioning systems don’t have to have a lot of complex wiring and tubing, they tend to take less time to install, bringing down the average cost to install a mini-split AC system.
Another awesome quality of a mini-split air conditioner is the fact that they can be installed to maximize your home. For example, one condenser may have as many as four evaporators connected to it, all of which can serve different rooms around the home. These evaporators can be individually controlled, which is great for keeping electric costs down. For example, if you wants to cool just one area in the home, all you have to do is turn off the evaporators to the rest of the home.
Finally, unlike a window AC unit, give you extra peace of mind as they don’t have to be installed in a window, which can cause a common entry point for intrudors.
