RELIEF FOR AIRBNB OWNERS

Property owners like Airbnb or other vacation rentals are often left holding the bill for big utility bills.

Guests of the property are frequently on vacation and although they expect the utility bill to be included in the rental, they can be careless with their usage, cranking up the AC or cranking up the heat or not monitoring their usage like they would at home.

Today there is good news for property owners!

Beyond comfort, a Ductless System provides financial benefits as well as environmental benefits too. The switch to ductless heating and cooling is not just about increased comfort; it’s a financially savvy decision for property owners.

Problem Solved: Boise Airbnb Receives Best Solution With a Ductless Mini Split

In the heart of Boise, Idaho, an innovative solution has been masterfully implemented to enhance the guest experience at a local Airbnb property. The owner, facing repeated issues with her property’s heating and cooling systems, sought a reliable and efficient solution that wouldn’t just enhance the comfort of her guests but also align with modern environmental standards.

We’re proud of our trained team of experts who stepped in, transforming the property’s ambiance and guest comfort with their expertise in Ductless Heating and Cooling Systems.

A Comfort Challenge Accepted

The property in question included three separate Airbnb rentals. Depending on the booking, these could be rented out individually or collectively. The main challenge stemmed from the existing heating and cooling systems: a non-Mitsubishi Minisplit in the main house that had seen better days, and the reliance on electric baseboard heating and window-mounted AC units in the other dwellings. These methods were not only inefficient and costly but also detracted from the aesthetic appeal and tranquility of the accommodations.

The Peppy Solution: Sleek, Silent, and Sustainable

Recognizing the unique needs of the property and its guests, Peppy Heating and Cooling proposed a cutting-edge solution: the installation of Mitsubishi ductless systems. The project entailed four outdoor units and six indoor heads, transforming the property’s climate control capabilities. Furthermore, the integration of the kumo cloud® app allowed for remote temperature adjustments, ensuring the optimal comfort level for guests even when the owner was offsite.

Why Ductless Was the Right Choice

Ductless heating and cooling systems, especially those from Mitsubishi, are renowned for their efficiency, reliability, and versatility. Unlike traditional systems, ductless solutions provide zoned comfort, allowing different areas of a property to be heated or cooled based on occupancy and preference. This capability not only enhances guest comfort but also significantly reduces energy consumption.

For this Boise Airbnb, Peppy Heating and Cooling’s expertise in ductless technology meant that the noisy, unsightly window units and the costly electric baseboard heaters could be replaced with a sleek, silent, and far more energy-efficient system.

The Results: Enhanced Guest Comfort and Significant Savings

The transformation was immediate and impactful. Guests now enjoy a consistently comfortable environment, free from the noise and visual clutter of the old systems. Moreover, the owner benefits from lower utility bills, thanks to the high efficiency of the Mitsubishi Hyper-heat (H2i®) Ductless System, which operates effectively even in temperatures as low as -13°F.

Peppy Heating and Cooling: A Partner in Comfort and Sustainability

Choosing Peppy Heating and Cooling for this critical upgrade was a decision that paid off in spades. Their comprehensive approach, from tailored system design to meticulous installation and ongoing maintenance recommendations, ensured the project’s success. By joining Peppy’s Comfort Club, the Airbnb owner now enjoys ongoing maintenance and peace of mind, knowing that her property’s comfort systems are in expert hands.

A Case For Comfort

For property owners looking to enhance guest comfort, reduce energy costs, and contribute to a healthier environment, going ductless is a decision that delivers on all fronts.

For guests visiting Airbnb or other vacation rentals, comfort is key. Rentals equipped with state-of-the-art ductless systems stand out as prime destinations. Guests can now enjoy the best of both worlds: unmatched comfort and the satisfaction of staying in environmentally conscious accommodations.

Though the initial investment in ductless systems is higher than maintaining outdated heating and cooling methods, the long-term savings on energy costs are substantial. Additionally, the availability of a $2000 tax credit under the 25C scheme and a robust 12-year warranty on parts and labor further sweeten the deal, making it an economically sound choice.

Ductless and Solar: Home Efficiency Heaven For Boise Idaho

Is it possible to use a Solar Powered Mini Split Heat Pump to super charge your Boise home comfort and save substantially?  Yes… and Yes!

Ductless heating and cooling systems are growing in popularity throughout Boise, Idaho, and the entire Treasure Valley area.

Idaho is known for being one of the most Solar Friendly states, offering policies that help homeowners save money while increasing the efficiency of their home.

A Ductless Mini Spit Heat Pump, also known as Mini Split System, offers several benefits over traditional ducted systems, such as lower energy costs, improved indoor air quality, and installation flexibility. But what many people don’t know is that ductless systems are also a great match for solar power.  In this blog post, we will explain why ductless and solar make such a great team and show you how you can take advantage of both technologies!

Why do ductless and solar go together?

Ductless heat pumps and solar panels are efficient and effective when used together because they use less energy to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home. Ductless systems have shorter start-up times, which conserves even more energy. Additionally, the air conditioning side of the ductless system is most beneficial during the summer months when solar panels are most effective due to the longer and sunnier days.

Just think, you’re pretty much using the same sun that is causing the heat gain inside the home to power the cooling of your home!

Ductless systems are often used in combination with other renewable energy sources, such as geothermal or wind power. This makes them an ideal candidate for solar power, which can be used to supplement these other sources. 

How can you take advantage of ductless and solar synergy? 

It’s all about synergy. The growing popularity of both ductless and the growing demand for solar provide a unique opportunity. When you unite these two technologies, you get a synergistic boost in your energy efficiency.

‘Synergy’ in a nutshell, means 1 + 1 = 3. Likewise, ductless + solar = So Much More!

Steps you can take to super charge your savings: 

Consider a ductless mini-split system for your Boise, Idaho home. Mini splits are ductless systems that can be used to heat and cool specific areas of your home. This is a great option if you have an older home that does not have ductwork, when you want to update or upgrade your existing furnace or air conditioner, any time you have a home remodeling or home addition project, and when you want to expand your living space, as in converting a garage, attic, or basement into livable space.

Install ductless units in combination with solar panels. This will help offset the cost of the ductless system as well as increase your home’s energy efficiency. Those offsets can come in the form of rebates and/or tax credits for both solar and ductless systems, as well as an ongoing reduction in your home’s usage of electrical power.

Benefits of combing a ductless system with a solar energy system?

Homeowners who are looking to increase their energy efficiency and reduce their carbon footprint will find that ductless and solar systems working together can be a great solution. Solar power can help offset the cost of ductless systems, as well as provide additional energy savings.  Ductless systems are a great way to improve your home’s comfort and indoor air quality, and when used in combination with solar power, can provide an even greater benefit to both your family and the environment.

If you’re considering ductless heating and cooling for your home, or are already using a ductless system, talk to a solar contractor about the possibility of adding solar panels to your home. You may be surprised at how much you can save!

Are there rebates and tax credits available for using solar panels with mini split heat pumps? 

Absolutely! Rebates and tax credits on ductless and solar panel installations are in play.  Until the end of 2022, homeowners that install solar and ductless heat pumps will receive a 26% credit towards their tax liability.

Starting in 2023, that number will change to 22%. Solar must be the main driver. For example, if you have solar installed and you add a $10,000 ductless system to your home, you would be eligible for a $2600 credit towards your tax liability!

How to start benefiting from this dynamic duo?

If you’re considering ductless heating and cooling for your home, or are already using a ductless system, find out about the possibility of adding solar panels to your home. You may be surprised at how much you can save! Using solar power but not ductless? Just reverse the process.
