Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install ductless mini-splits myself?
Experts advise strongly against do-it-yourself mini-split installations for several reasons.
Often, a DIY installation invalidates the warranty. The permit and inspection process generally involves a far greater level of scrutiny.
Mini-split installation is also complex and potentially dangerous, and a DIY installation can ultimately cost more.
How do you size a ductless mini-split?
A Manual J load calculation is essential to size a mini-split. It accounts for the layout, square footage, and ceiling heights of each zone and the overall building envelope of the home.
This approach indicates the outdoor compressor unit’s total cooling and heating output.
How are ductless mini-splits different than central AC?
Central AC provides cooled air via ducts and generally has one blower, evaporator coil, and drain line.
Mini-split systems typically don’t have ducts and have a separate air handler for each zone in the home. Each air handler houses its own blower, evaporator coil, and drain line.
