Ductless Mini-Splits in Santa Rosa, CA

How it works

An outdoor unit connects to one or more wall, ceiling or floor heads through a small line set. Each head has its own controls, so rooms can be set to different temperatures.

Good fits

Older homes without ducts, garage conversions, additions, accessory dwelling units, studios and bonus rooms are all common uses.

Replacing wall heaters

Mini-splits are a common upgrade from old gas wall heaters or electric baseboards, adding cooling as well as more even heat.

Clean air

Indoor heads have washable filters. They catch dust but aren't a substitute for a good whole-house filter during smoke events.

Placement

Heads go high on a wall where air can spread across the room. The outdoor unit needs a solid base and clear space around it.

Permits

Electrical and refrigerant work usually needs a permit. Your contractor should handle it.

Looks

Line sets can run through closets or along the outside in tidy covers, which helps in heritage homes.

Cleaning

Wash the indoor filters every few weeks when the system runs a lot, and have the coil and blower cleaned if airflow drops or a smell develops.

Get a quote

Tell the technician which rooms you want to heat and cool and how big they are. Send a request and an HVAC technician will get in touch.

Quiet running

Indoor heads are quiet, which suits bedrooms and home offices.

Heating on cool mornings

On foggy mornings, heads in the rooms you use can take the chill off quickly without warming the whole house.
