Ductless Mini-Split Repair
Your ductless system works hard to heat and cool your home. Eventually, wear and tear will take a toll, and your system will struggle to keep you comfortable. If your system is showing signs that it needs repair, such as short-cycling, failing to meet the desired temperature or more, we can help.
Our highly trained HVAC technicians have years of experience repairing a variety of heating and cooling systems, including mini-splits. When you call us, we’ll arrive in a vehicle full of inventory parts, ensuring there are minimal delays in repairing your ductless system.
Ductless Mini-Split Maintenance
Routine ductless mini-split maintenance is the secret to enjoying reliable heating and cooling, keeping your system energy-efficient, and saving on energy bills. We recommend scheduling a tune-up twice a year: once in the spring and again in the fall.
Ensuring your system gets professional care twice a year can also:
- Keep your system’s warranty intact
- Extend the life span of your ductless mini-split
- Allow our technicians to find and resolve problems early
When did your ductless mini-split last receive a tune-up? Schedule maintenance with us by calling 954-255-0384 or contacting us online.
Ductless Mini-Split Replacement
No HVAC system lasts forever, even with routine maintenance. It may be time to replace your ductless system if:
- It requires a repair that costs over 50% of the price of a replacement.
- Your ductless mini-split is over 10 years old.
- It no longer meets your family’s comfort needs.
- Your energy bills suddenly spike when the system is running.
Air America puts your comfort and satisfaction first. You can count on us to determine the ideal system for your budget, home size, and comfort needs.
Split Systems We Service & Install
A split system has products both inside and outside your home. In many cases, a split system consists of:
- Furnace: Provides heating and the fan is used year-round to circulate air
- Evaporator coil: The indoor component of your outdoor cooling unit
- Air conditioner or heat pump: Works in tandem with the evaporator coil
- Ducts: Carry the conditioned air throughout your home
- Control or thermostat: Your interface for controlling your system
- Optional air quality accessories: Clean, humidify, and freshen air before it circulates throughout your home
Some split systems consist only of an outdoor unit, such as a heat pump or air conditioner and an inside fan coil. If that’s the case, there’s usually another heat source in the home, like baseboard heat or a boiler.
This model is a smarter version of your standard split system, with an energy-efficient twist: In addition to gas furnace heat, this system automatically determines how to get the best efficiency by also using an electricity-fueled heat pump to provide warmth. Bonus: The heat pump also functions as an air conditioner.
In the warmer, humid climates of the south, you might consider a high-performance heat pump with lower efficiency and a lower upfront cost, so you can have the furnace as backup heating on really cold nights while taking advantage of the high-efficiency heat pump most of the year.
A heat pump with a variable-speed compressor matched to a furnace with a variable-speed blower motor can do an amazing job of pulling humidity out of the air in the summer to save money.
In colder climates, it’s best to pair your heat pump with a high-efficiency furnace. Despite the cold, you might be surprised by how much mileage and cost-saving efficiency you’ll get from a heat pump in the spring, fall, and, yes, even winter.
A hybrid heat system includes:
- Heat pump: Provides summer cooling and dehumidification, and warmth in cooler seasons
- Evaporator coil: The indoor component of your outdoor heat pump
- Furnace: Provides heating and the fan is used year-round to circulate air
- Ducts: Carry the conditioned air throughout your home
- Control or thermostat: Your interface for controlling your system
- Optional air quality accessories: Clean, humidify, and freshen air before it circulates throughout your home
As you may have guessed from its name, a ductless split system doesn’t rely on air ducts to spread treated air throughout your home.
Instead, this specialty system is designed to heat or cool room additions or other places that may lack ductwork, such as home theatres, exercise rooms, garages, or any other area where the existing system doesn’t cut it.
Ductless split systems include:
- Small outdoor air conditioner or heat pump unit
- A compact indoor wall unit
- Refrigerant tubing and wire connections: Pass through a small hole from the indoor to the outdoor unit to connect the system
- On-unit or remote control: Your interface for controlling your system
Some homes don’t have space inside for a furnace or the coil needed for cooling. That doesn’t mean they can’t achieve the same comfort and improved air quality of a split system home.
Packaged units tend to look alike but can do vastly different things:
- Cool only as an air conditioner
- Cool and heat as an electric heat pump
- Cool and heat as a Hybrid Heat® dual-fuel system of a gas furnace with electric heat pump
- Cool and heat as a gas furnace with an electric air conditioner
As an all-in-one unit, the only other thing you need is a control or thermostat and, of course, ductwork to carry the conditioned air. You can also add air-quality accessories if you like. Packaged systems may be on the exterior of your home, either on a flat rooftop or in the yard.
