Are you in the market for an energy-saving and flexible HVAC system upgrade? Ductless mini-split systems may be the answer. Our expert technicians and installers are ready to assist you in choosing the ideal mini-split system for your home. And when it's time to proceed with installation, we promise a seamless and expert fit.

In contrast to conventional furnaces that need ductwork, mini-split systems work in a comparable way to heat pumps. This configuration involves a direct connection between the indoor and outdoor components of your system. Choosing a well-installed mini-split system can bring a variety of benefits to homeowners, including:

  • Different designs enable versatile installation: A distinct part of a mini-split’s design is how many options you have for simple installation needs for a number of different areas. Whether you opt for units mounted on the wall, cassettes recessed into the ceiling or a more streamlined approach, mini-splits offer the flexibility you need.
  • Affordable system costs: 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 tucked away where they’re most effective. For many installation projects, this means lower overall costs for installation labor.
  • Higher energy efficiency: Mini-splits are engineered to deliver accurate and localized heating or cooling. Independent zone control 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 the conventional, closed network of air ducts.

Single-Zone Mini-Splits vs. Multi-Zone Systems

When you’re trying to decide between different mini-splits, keep in mind that single-zone mini-splits are suited for specific areas, whereas multi-zone systems enable independent climate control across multiple spaces of your home.

Determining the Best Locations for Mini-Split Installation: Different Types and Their Advantages

The location of your mini-split system is crucial for peak performance. Below are several ways you can install mini-splits along with their advantages:

  • Wall Mounted: These units are simple to install and are a cost-effective option. Wall-mounted mini-splits efficiently distribute your desired temperatures for both heating and cooling.
  • Floor Mounted: An effective option for homes where installation on the wall or ceiling won’t work.
  • Ceiling Cassette: Ceiling units excel at servicing large areas. They're effective HVAC systems without losing the ability to blend discreetly 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 several rooms or large open layouts, combining a sleek aesthetic with powerful performance.

Account for the system’s size, layout and other specific HVAC requirements of your home as you compare mini-split systems. A mini-split specialist has the knowledge of different brand features to ensure you make an informed choice.
