Does My Ductless System Have a Drainage Problem?
Monday, February 17th, 2025When people are accustomed to traditional central AC units, they may find their ductless system a little confusing at first. It’s important to pay attention to how your system is working, so that any problems it has can be caught early and remedied before bigger issues develop. But how can you tell if it’s working properly when you’re not clear on what you should expect from it?

Where Should Your Mini Splits Go?
Monday, January 20th, 2025A mini split, or ductless system, can be used either for just air conditioning or, more commonly, for heat pumps, allowing the system to both cool and heat the home.

Moisture in Your Mini Split? Here’s What to Do
Monday, September 2nd, 2024A ductless mini-split is a spectacular way to get around issues like not having ductwork or having old or damaged ductwork.
