Mini splits exist for the rooms central air forgets. The garage workshop, the sunroom that bakes by noon, the addition the ducts never reached, the Royal Oak house that was built without ductwork at all: each of these can be heated and cooled on its own by one or more indoor heads. A slim line set carries refrigerant, power, and condensate drainage through a small wall penetration to the outdoor unit, so there is no duct system to leak. The inverter compressor ramps up and down with the load rather than cycling hard, which keeps the room steady, quiet, and cheap to run. In winter, the same equipment works as a cold-climate heat pump, not a cooling unit pretending to heat.
Most of our service calls are for AC Repair. Start there if your system isn't running right.
Warning Signs for Ductless Mini Split Installation
Recognizing the warning signs early can save you time and money. Here are the most common indicators that it's time to call a professional:
- New living space that should not have to lean on the main system
- An older home with no ductwork and no good place to put any
- A wish for room-by-room control rather than one thermostat for everything
- An addition or back room that your central system has never kept comfortable
- Window air conditioners that block the view, rattle, and leak drafts
- Big temperature fights between floors or between family members
- A workshop or bonus space you want comfortable in every season
- Heating costs driven up by resistance heat in rooms the furnace misses
