| Having had a Mit HP ductless in my vacation home, I have a few comments to share. The unit has its drawbacks such as air noise, certainly less than a thru the wall or window unit but more than a piped in diffuser from a central system. I found it to be a bit annoying but grew used to it. The other drawback was the constant air movement that some would perceive as a draft. With the air moving a properly sized unit should distribute the heat fairly well as the wall units discharge down and have an air sweep option. No doubt the elect baseboard will be the quietist more and comfortable for heating; however it comes at a cost (energy use over a HP) Another option if you are going to heat electrically is to consider electric radiant heat mats installed under the tile. This will keep the floors warm, at or below the cost of operating the baseboard but add 10X the comfort and would be supplemented with the fireplace. For AC you could still go with a ductless or quality through the wall unit. |
