Benefits of a Mini Split

Great alternative to central AC installation for apartments, small homes, offices, or garages.
Potentially better energy efficiency than traditional ducted systems that can lose up to 30% of cooling energy.
Typically a lower price point compared to central air units.
Better climate control, only cool the areas you want instead of your whole home.
Can help you save on your energy bills compared to window units and older HVAC systems.

Our Mini Split AC Services

Single-Zone Mini Split Installation

These systems are perfect for home additions like sunrooms, garages, bedrooms, a home office or any single space that doesn’t need whole-home air conditioning. Single-zone mini splits are typically the lowest-cost ductless air conditioner since they only require one unit and one service line.

Multi-Zone Mini Split Installation

If you have an older home without ductwork and want flexibility to have climate control in multiple rooms then a multi-zone system may be best for you. These mini splits usually give you the option to add cooling to up to 8 rooms depending on the system.

Mini Split Replacement

If your unit is 10-15 years old and not keeping your space as cool as it used to, it may be time for a replacement. Our team can troubleshoot your current system and help you decide if mini split replacement or repair is the best option.
