What is A Ductless Mini-Split?
A ductless mini-split is a type of heating and cooling system that allows you to change the temperature of different areas in your home independent from the other. Rather than using ducts to heat and cool the home, this system consists of an outdoor unit and one or more indoor units connected by refrigerant lines.
What Are Some Some Advantages of Ductless Mini-Splits?
There are many great advantages to ductless mini-split systems when comparing them to traditional systems. Some of these benefits include:
- Precise zone control, allowing you to adjust the temperature in individual rooms or zones according to specific comfort preferences.
- High energy efficiency
- Easy to install
- Improved indoor air quality
What is The Lifespan of A Ductless Mini-Split?
While the lifespan of a ductless mini-split can depend on a variety of different factors including upkeep, proper installation, usage, and more, a typical system will last between 15-20 years. Similar to traditional systems, it might be advantageous to replace your system as it gets older.
Should I Contact A Professional To Install A Ductless Mini-Split?
While ductless mini-splits are easier to install compared to traditional systems, because of the absence of ductwork, it is still better to call in a professional when looking to install one. This is to ensure proper sizing, placement, and connection of the units. It is also important because the electrical components and refrigerant lines can be dangerous for anyone other than trained professionals.

We had our mini split system installed in January by this company. On 8.17.22 one of our unit started leaking. I contacted the company and they sent Billy P. the next day. Billy was very professional and punctual. He found the problem within minutes and was able to fix it right away since he had an extra part with him.

I had a great experience with Same Day from start to finish for a Mini Split system, beginning with Alex who came to my home for an estimate and discussion of how the system works. They were able to schedule installation for the following day. The team that came out, Jamie and Lamar quickly figured out the best place for the unit and presented their plan in a clear way, so that at the end of the job it looked exactly how they described it.
Frequently Asked Questions On Ductless Air Conditioning In San Diego
What Should I Expect To Pay?
Features of your San Diego home like square footage, age, existing HVAC structure, and your personal cooling needs will all contribute to differences in cost for each type of system. For example, if you have a vent system in your home and won’t need to install, that may make a central air system comparable in price to ductless systems (again, depending on the home size and number of rooms that require cooling). On the other hand, if you’re looking to cool a moderately-sized addition without venting of its own, a ductless system would likely be a cost-effective choice.
How Do Ductless Systems Work?
Dual zone air conditioning systems use a series of thermometers, sensors, and dampers to control the temperature in different parts of the home. You could program your basement to be warmer, while the main floors may need additional cooling — just about any temperature configuration you might need can be accommodated with a dual zone unit. Dual zone A/C units are especially helpful for homes with multiple stories, areas that are routinely unoccupied, or configurations that lend themselves to natural ‘zones.’
Why Do People Choose Them?
Mini-split air conditioners offer flexibility in cooling and are especially well suited for cooling individual rooms or portions of dwellings that may not be connected to existing HVAC. Mini-split a/c systems can also be installed in more than one room, cooling additional locations while all connecting to the same outdoor compressor. This gives you individual temperature control room by room for those with very specific cooling needs.
