What are Mini-Split Air Conditioners?
For those who are looking for an extra boost in energy efficiency, mini-split air conditioning systems are the way to go. They are similar in some ways to central air conditioning, but they do not involve ductwork, which means that mini-splits can operate in areas of your home where ducts do not exist. An outdoor compressor is linked by a conduit to an indoor air handling unit, ensuring that any associated noise stays outside where it belongs.
Our Ductless Mini-Split Solutions
In its most basic form, a ductless system consists of an outdoor unit and an indoor unit connected by refrigerant lines. The system uses refrigerant to absorb heat from inside your home and transfers it to the outdoor unit for release.
Some ductless heat pump models can reverse the process to heat your home in the winter. These systems suit older homes that may lack ductwork or have challenging layouts. We can help you decide if ductless AC systems fit your home. Our knowledgeable team will identify the best installation points to ensure your comfort.
Installing a ductless mini-split system provides the following benefits:
- Energy efficiency
- Quiet operation
- Personalized temperature settings
- Improved air quality
- Remote and smart control
- Potential rebates and incentives
Ductless AC Installation and Replacement
We install ductless systems just about anywhere in your home. Depending on your installation needs, you can mount the indoor unit on ceilings, walls, or floors. These units are much smaller and faster to install, ensuring we finish the project in approximately one to two days.
With proper care, ductless systems typically last 10 to 20 years. We offer replacement services when your old unit no longer works efficiently or frequently breaks down. We work with you to determine the best location and method for your new mini-split replacement to benefit your family the most. Our ductless AC installation and replacement services ensure your family’s comfort while helping you save money.
Prompt and Reliable Mini-Split AC Repair
Although mini-splits operate efficiently with little maintenance, wear and tear over time can affect their performance. Knowing the warning signs that indicate when you need ductless mini-split repair is essential. Do not ignore these signs, as the problems will only worsen. Continuing to run your system when it needs ductless AC repair can lead to a complete failure and the need for early replacement.
- Inconsistent temperatures
- Unusual noises
- Water leaks or moisture in the unit
- Foul or musty odors
- Weakened airflow
- Increasing electricity bills
- Frequent cycling
- Error codes
- Unresponsive controls
Ductless AC Maintenance and Tune-Ups
Ductless mini-splits require maintenance just like central AC systems. We recommend scheduling annual ductless AC maintenance in early spring to prepare your system for summer.
Maintenance includes inspecting for wear and tear, lubricating the moving parts to protect them against damaging heat caused by friction, tightening and testing electrical wiring connections, checking the refrigerant levels and airflow pressure, and flushing the drain line while inspecting and cleaning the coils. Annual maintenance keeps your ductless system working as efficiently and effectively as possible.
