Good uses

Main living areas, bedrooms, basement suites, additions, home offices, workshops and converted garages.

Replacing baseboards

Heads in the main rooms can take over most of the heating, with baseboards kept for backup.

Suites

A separate head or system for a suite lets each household set its own comfort.

Cooling where it counts

Putting a head in the main bedroom makes hot summer nights much easier.

Placement

Heads mount high on walls with clear airflow across the room; outdoor units need a stable stand above snow and puddles.

Quiet

Indoor heads run quietly, which suits bedrooms.

Cleaning

Rinse the washable filters every few weeks in heavy use, and have coils cleaned if a musty smell appears.

Strata rules

Townhouses usually need strata approval for outdoor units and line sets.

Controls

Each head has its own remote, and many work from a phone app.

Cold-climate models

Ask about models rated for low temperatures if the heads will carry most of the winter heating.

Line set covers

Covers on outside walls protect the insulation from sun and look tidier.

Musty smell

A musty smell when a head starts usually means the coil and blower wheel need cleaning.

Do ductless heat pumps work in arctic outflow?
Cold-climate models keep heating at low temperatures, though backup heat is still sensible for the coldest days.
