Mini-split or central system?

A mini-split makes sense for one or a few rooms, spaces without ducts, or when you want to cool a room separately. For a whole house that already has ductwork in good condition, a central system is usually the better value. During the visit we measure the space and show you both options with written prices.

Good to know

New mini-splits use the newer refrigerants (R-32 or R-454B), so they are installed as a complete new system. Size matters more than brand: a unit that is too big cools fast but leaves the room humid, which is a real problem in Miami.

Need help with this?

A new system should fit the house, the ductwork, and your budget. We measure before we recommend, explain the options, and install cleanly.
