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.

This was our first time using Roy’s, and they now have a new customer! Thank you to our service tech, Matt Franjoine, who was punctual, courteous, worked cleanly (I appreciate the shoe covers!), quickly assessing & fixing the issue. I am thankful they keep parts on hand, and that this didn’t result in a 2nd call with a follow-up repair visit. I would definitely recommend calling Roy’s!!

The entire AC installation experience was seamless! The Comfort Advisor did a great job reviewing the work to be done and explaining all of the various options I had. They answered all of my questions and went into depth and worked to fit the AC install into my schedule. The technicians that came arrived on-time and were courteous, easy to talk to, and quick! It maybe took them 4 hours - 4.5 hours to install the AC unit and it's various components. Since the weather was too cool, they have to send a technician out again to complete the final setup of the AC unit with my Nest thermostat, but that's to ensure it runs as efficient as possible, so no complaints here. The technicians though were clean and great in going over the work they did and answered all of my questions! All-in-all, a great experience with Roy's and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again! 02/2023 Update: I've continued to have great experiences with Roy's and am excited for my home plumbing to be re-piped by Jeff and his crew. 09/2025 Update: Evan Doud was friendly and professional! He was on time, actually a little early, for his timeframe and made quick work of checking my slow bathroom sink drain. I ended up having the drain replaced as certain components were warping, which was causing my issue - Evan took care of it all in an hour. All-in-all, another great experience!
