North Andover Colonial Revival Gets Upgraded Ductless Heating and Cooling

Homes like this Colonial Revival with a barrel-tile roof in North Andover, MA were often built without the ductwork a modern heating and air conditioning system requires. As a result, they must rely on other methods to make the home comfortable. Although a ductless AC system was installed many years ago, the home’s large, formal foyer dictates the overall comfort of the rest of the house. These homeowners wanted to ensure that the foyer was a comfortable as the rest of the home. The previously installed unit was old, out of warranty, and in need of a replacement for a newer model that could deliver the comfort they had come to expect and enjoy.

Problem: Our homeowners needed to replace their existing ductless unit that was out of warranty after many years of great service. They wanted to make sure their foyer, the virtual center of the home, was comfortable year-round. 

Solution: They called N.E.T.R., Inc. because of our renowned service and experience. We installed a new Mitsubishi Electric Hyper Heat Ductless Unit to allow pinpoint control of the temperature and a matching indoor unit to ensure comfort throughout the entrance to the home. This newer unit carries an extended 12-year warranty, ensuring many years of reliable comfort for our homeowners.

Colonial homes are usually well-insulate, but features like cathedral ceilings, dormers or recessed lighting increase the likelihood of heating and cooling difficulties. In cases like this one, adequately heating and cooling the foyer with a ductless AC and heating unit gives the homeowner comfort that spreads throughout the home.

The previous ductless units were no longer within their warranty period and in need of repairs. The homeowners knew N.E.T.R., Inc. would provide the best equipment and service for their home because of their experience with the first ductless system from years ago, so they called us in again.

The newer Mitsubishi Electric Hyper-Heat ductless systems are even more efficient than before – the new units can work effectively even when temperatures are as low as -13F outside! In addition, they do a fantastic job cooling a home during the hottest days of summer.
