Our knowledgeable technicians and installers are ready to help you in picking the best mini-split system for your home.

Different from standard furnaces that require ductwork, mini-split systems function similarly to heat pumps. This configuration involves a straightforward linkage between the indoor and outdoor components of your system. Choosing a properly installedmini-split system can bring a variety of benefits to homeowners, including:
- Different designs enable versatile installation: A unique component of a mini-split’s design is how many options you have for installation placement for a variety of spaces. Whether you opt for units mounted on the wall, ceiling cassettes or a more streamlined approach, mini-splits offer the flexibility you need.
- Affordable, yet high efficiency Traditional HVAC systems can be expensive to install and maintain, especially when dealing with ductwork installation. Mini-splits on the other hand, can be tucked away where they’re needed most. For many installation projects, this means reduced expenses for installation labor.
- Strong energy efficiency: Mini-splits are designed to deliver accurate and localized heating or cooling. Independent zone control means energy is only used where it’s necessary. This means you can avoid wasting energy on rooms you aren’t actively using, unlike the conventional, closed network of air ducts.
Single-Zone Mini-Splits vs. Multi-Zone Systems
When making your decision, consider that single-zone mini-splits are ideal for cooling or heating individual rooms, whereas multi-zone systems enable independent climate control across several areas of your home.
Choosing Optimal Mini-Split Placement: Different Types and Their Advantages
Where you choose to install your mini-split system is vital for the best possible results. Below are the various installation methods along with their advantages:
- Wall Mounted: These units are straightforward to install and are a cost-effective option. Wall-mounted mini-splits efficiently distribute your desired temperatures for both heating and cooling.
- Floor Mounted: Best suited for homes where wall or ceiling installation is obstructed.
- Ceiling Cassette: Ceiling cassette mini-splits are ideal for wide coverage. They're effective HVAC systems without losing the ability to blend discreetly with your ceiling's appearance.
- Concealed Duct: Invisible when installed, concealed duct mini-splits offer the greatest versatility. They are a great choice for homes with multiple spaces or lots of square footage, combining a clean look with powerful performance.
