Minisplit Heat Pump

What is the definition of a minisplit heat pump? A minisplit heat pump is a type of HVAC system that is used to provide cooling and heating to a single room or area. It is made up of two main parts: an outdoor condenser unit and an indoor evaporator unit. The outdoor unit contains the compressor and condenser coil, which pulls in outside air, compresses it, and cools it. The cooled air is then sent to the indoor unit, which contains the evaporator coil. The evaporator absorbs the heat from the air and sends it into the duct system. The duct system then transfers the heated air to the area that needs to be heated. The air is then cooled by the evaporator and sent back outside. A minisplit heat pump can be used in any area of the home, from a single room to an entire home. It is an efficient, cost-effective way to heat and cool a home.
