Homeowners with a mini-split system should schedule seasonal maintenance. All mini-splits require a cooling tune-up in the spring. If your system is a heat pump, you should schedule a heating tune-up in the fall as well. Most mini-split warranties require it. Routine service improves efficiency and reduces cooling and heating costs. It also helps to prevent repairs and extend the life of the system.
Mini-splits are highly efficient but can become inefficient when they malfunction. That’s why increased energy consumption is often an early sign of a problem. Don’t ignore mustiness and other unpleasant smells, which can indicate a dirty evaporator coil. A mini-split that won’t turn on may have a clogged drain or a faulty blower. Uneven cooling or heating is a common sign of a problem. You should also listen for unusual noises, such as grinding or clicking.
If you’d like to install a mini-split, the first step is to determine how many zones you need or want. The typical system has been two and four zones, but you can have more than that. Once we know the zones, we can perform a load calculation for each. That will tell us the overall cooling and, potentially, heating output you need. It will also inform which equipment style is ideal for each particular zone.
Many customers opt for wall units, as they’re usually the least expensive option. Modern mini-split wall units are compact and don’t take up much valuable wall real estate. Ceiling mounting is a popular alternative. There are units that install flush against the ceiling. We also install drop-down units that have vents on all sides.
There are many reasons to install a modern ductless mini-split system.
Better air quality
Quieter operation
Lower operating costs
Smaller environmental impact
Rebates and other energy incentives
