There used to be entirely few possibilities for central temperature control in older homes without existing HVAC duct.
Installing a duct plan is an severely lengthy, invasive & expensive project, however not only does the job require splitting into walls & creating a big mess, however the network of pipes takes up expensive space, then very often, in older homes, the studs of interior walls are turned sideways, making the incompany of traditional HVAC duct impossible, but homeowners were forced to make do with portable cooling systems, box fans & electric heaters.
This type of equipment is unsightly & cumbersome. It detracts from the architectural appeal of the lake house & has trouble keeping up with demand while the two of us were in dire weather. Fortunately, modern innovation has led to high velocity Heating & Air Conditioning systems. High velocity utilizes entirely tight& adaptable ducts that can be snaked into existing walls & around obstacles without causing destruction. Because the ducts are entirely compact, they connect to smaller vents, which blend seamlessly into the decor. The vents are available in a wide range of sizes & styles & can even be painted to match the wall color. The heating & cooling equipment is also smaller in size & able to be installed in the attic or a closet. Heated or cooled air is introduced into the rooms of the house at a high rate of speed which creates a gentle suction & increases the rate of modern & existing air mixing. It abruptly raises or lowers room temperature & maintains more even comfort. In the past, homeowners have complained that high velocity systems are noisy. However, the improvement of insulated ducts has significantly cut back on operational sounds.
