How Does a Mini-Split System Work?

A mini-split system consists of an outdoor condenser and one or more indoor air-handling units, connected by a small refrigerant line. These systems transfer heat between the inside and outside of your home, providing both heating and cooling without the need for ductwork. Each indoor unit operates independently, allowing for customized temperature control in different rooms.

Where Is the Best Place to Install a Mini-Split Unit?

The ideal placement for a mini-split indoor unit is on an exterior-facing wall, high on the wall, and away from direct sunlight or obstructions. Proper positioning ensures even airflow and efficient operation. A professional installer will assess your space to determine the best location for maximum comfort and performance.

Do Mini-Splits Work Well in Cold Climates?

Yes, many modern mini-split systems are designed to provide efficient heating even in cold temperatures. Some models include heat pump technology that works effectively in freezing conditions, making them a great option for Buffalo winters. Choosing a cold-climate mini-split ensures reliable performance year-round.

How Long Does It Take to Install a Mini-Split System?

A single-zone mini-split installation typically takes one day, while multi-zone systems may require additional time. The process includes mounting the indoor unit, installing the outdoor condenser, and connecting the refrigerant lines. A professional installation ensures the system is set up correctly for optimal efficiency.

Are Mini-Splits More Energy-Efficient Than Traditional HVAC Systems?

Yes, mini-splits are often more energy-efficient because they eliminate duct losses and use inverter technology to adjust output based on demand. This means they only use the necessary amount of energy to maintain the desired temperature. Their zoned cooling and heating capabilities also prevent unnecessary energy use in unoccupied rooms.

Can a Mini-Split System Cool and Heat Multiple Rooms?

Multi-zone mini-split systems allow you to connect multiple indoor units to one outdoor condenser, providing temperature control for different rooms. Each zone can be set to a different temperature, giving you personalized comfort throughout your home. This makes them a great solution for homes with varying heating and cooling needs.

What Kind of Maintenance Does a Mini-Split System Need?

Regular maintenance includes cleaning or replacing filters, checking refrigerant levels, and keeping the outdoor unit free of debris. Indoor units should also be wiped down periodically to prevent dust buildup. Professional tune-ups help maintain efficiency and extend the lifespan of the system.

Is a Mini-Split System a Good Investment for My Home?

If you’re looking for an efficient, flexible, and cost-effective heating and cooling solution, a mini-split system is a great investment. These systems provide zoned temperature control, lower energy bills, and improved indoor air quality. They’re especially beneficial for older homes, additions, or areas where ductwork isn’t practical.

The communication from the office personnel to the technicians was great. I loved that they send you a email with a picture of the technician coming and a little bio. Jeff was who we had come help. He was knowledgeable and personable he was able to fix our problem and we signed up for membership and before he left he said he would let the office know to set us up for a furnace check. He couldn't have been gone for more than 20 mins and we were already getting a call to set that appointment up. I am so glad we went with Roy's. We will definitely use them for any of our plumbing, heating and cooling needs. Nick came for the big job we needed and he was personable and knowledgeable. He explained the two projects being handled and everything was done quicker than expected and all is working well. Very pleased with the work that was completed.

My sump pump failed and my basement flooded with 2 inches of water. What did I do? I called Roy’s Plumbing Heating and Cooling. since it was an emergency, they sent a technician out to my home within 30 minutes of my call. The technician, Nick Fyvie was very courteous and put me at ease quickly by assuring me that he would resolve my issue. And did he ever! He showed me several options of sump pumps they had available, patiently answered my many questions and helped me to choose the one that would suit my needs best. Nick then began the installation process of the new sump pump and quickly had my basement clear of all the water. I can’t say enough about the excellent service I receive from Roy’s Plumbing Heating & Cooling. I would highly recommend Roy’s for any of your plumbing heating or cooling needs!

Great local company to work with. My electrician, Ray, was punctual, professional, and very knowledgeable. We both were initially stumped why my recently purchased house had the microwave light button trigger the overhead kitchen lights. He found an improperly connected neutral from an outlet upgrade (to usb) and some significant backfeeding. In about an hour all was corrected and explained to me. Ray also noticed that the main panel in my house is original (1971) and very full. He recommened some electrical work that is on my list of projects. His recommendation and attention to detail in my home will make Roy's my first call when I am ready for this project. I am trilled with the service provided. Thanks so much!
