Are you in the market for an upgrade to a more efficient and flexible HVAC solution? Ductless mini-split systems may be the answer. Our skilled technicians and installers are ready to help you in choosing the best mini-split system for your home. And when it's time to proceed with installation, we guarantee a smooth and professional fit.

Different from standard furnaces that use ductwork, mini-split systems work in a comparable way to heat pumps. This layout involves a straightforward linkage between the indoor and outdoor units of your system. Opting for a well-installed mini-split system can bring numerous benefits to homeowners, including:

  • Easily installed in different places: A distinct component of a mini-split’s design is how many options you have for installation placement for a variety of spaces. Whether you prefer units mounted on the wall, cassettes recessed into the ceiling or something sleeker, mini-splits offer the versatility you need.
  • Affordable, yet high efficiency Traditional HVAC systems can be expensive to install and maintain, especially when it comes to ductwork installation. Mini-splits on the other hand, can be installed discreetly where they’re needed most. For many installation projects, this means reduced expenses for installation labor.
  • Surprisingly robust energy efficiency: Mini-splits are intended to deliver precise, targeted heating or cooling. Controlling each zone independently means energy is only used where it’s needed. This means you can minimize energy wasted sending climate control to rooms you aren’t actively using, unlike traditional ductwork systems.

Individually Zoned Mini-Split Units vs. Multi-Zone Systems

When making your decision, remember that single-zone mini-splits are suited for specific areas, whereas multi-zone systems enable independent climate control across several areas of your home.

Choosing Optimal Mini-Split Placement: Different Types and Their Advantages

The location of your mini-split system is vital for the best possible results. Below are several ways you can install mini-splits along with their advantages:

  • Wall Mounted: These units are straightforward to install, making them a cost-effective option. Wall-mounted mini-splits ensure even air distribution for both heating and cooling.
  • Floor Mounted: Best suited for homes where installation on the wall or ceiling won’t work.
  • Ceiling Cassette: Ceiling units are ideal for wide coverage. They're typically designed to integrate smoothly with your ceiling's appearance.
  • Concealed Duct: Hidden from view, concealed duct mini-splits are perhaps the most indiscreet option. They are the perfect fit for homes with multiple spaces or lots of square footage, combining a clean look with powerful performance.

Account for the sizing, the property’s layout and other specific HVAC requirements of your home as you compare mini-split systems. An experienced installer has the knowledge of different brand features to ensure you make an informed choice.
