Ductless Mini-Split Service in Dallas, TX and the DFW Metroplex

Ductless mini-splits – also known simply as air-source heat pumps, mini-splits, or ductless AC units – are a category of heating and cooling units that don’t require ductwork. Unlike traditional forced-air systems, they are comprised of at least two units: one on the exterior of the property and at least one indoors. These units are connected via a conduit that allows an electrical pump to circulate refrigerant. The interior unit then heats or cools the room to the desired temperature.

Ductless mini-splits are ideal for retrofits and new construction because they are:

• Affordable to install: Since these units don’t require ductwork, they are less expensive to install in new construction homes. Similarly, their quick installation and versatility enable them to be installed in a few hours on virtually any existing property.
• Energy efficient: Ductless heat pumps are more efficient for several reasons, chief among them being that there’s no loss of temperature as warmed or cooled air travels through ductwork. Furthermore, their innovative design enables more precise temperature control from room to room.
• Cost-effective to operate: Unlike a traditional HVAC system, a ductless system uses less energy to maintain the desired temperature, making it easier on your wallet.

Unlike installing a central AC or furnace, mini-splits are quick to install because they don’t require ductwork or extensive site preparation. When installing a ductless heat pump at your Dallas area property, our certified technicians will:

1. Inspect and assess the property. It is crucial to map the placement of exterior and interior units to optimize efficiency.
2. Plan for configuration and installation. Our experienced installers understand the output of each system and will help you design yours to keep your household, tenants, customers, or employees comfortable, regardless of the weather.
3. Install each unit. Most systems require a single hole to be drilled in the wall between the interior and exterior units to accommodate coolant lines, wiring, and the drain. This number may vary based on the size and complexity of your system.

Before our work is complete, we always test, inspect, clean up, and dispose of any materials.

The cost of each system will vary based on the size of your property and the number of zones (interior systems) required to maintain your desired temperature range. Before beginning any work, we’ll provide you with an up-front quote for consideration.

Mini-split systems are ideal for:

• New constructions: If you crave zone-specific temperature control, a mini-split system might be right for your new construction home or commercial building.
• Property additions: Heat pumps allow property owners to add heating or cooling to their new addition without running new ductwork or tying into existing lines.
• Auxiliary buildings and garages: Workshops, attached, and detached garages can all be heated or cooled without extensive HVAC work with the addition of a ductless mini-split.
• Mother-in-law apartments or ADUs: With the growth of the DFW rental market, adding an accessible dwelling unit to a property has become a lucrative move. Whether your guests are renting or visiting for the holiday, a ductless HVAC system can ensure their comfort without breaking the bank.

Ductless mini-splits have an average lifespan of 10 to 20 years. The lifespan of your unit depends on its use and care. When your mini-split has reached the end of its peak-performance period, replacement is quick and easy. Our DFW-based team will turn off the unit and cut power to the circuit, remove the interior and exterior units, replace each unit, and reconnect the wiring and tubing.

While this process might sound like an ideal task for an intrepid DIYer, we do not recommend installing your own AC or heating system. At A#1 Air, our team of technicians has decades of experience installing HVAC units of all makes and models. It’s essential to remember that every time you add a power draw to your electrical panel or splice wiring, it presents an opportunity for error. Don’t take the risk; always opt for professional service. Our mini-split replacement service is available in Fort Worth, Dallas, and throughout our service area.

Maintaining your mini-split is key to its efficiency and longevity. We encourage homeowners to routinely replace the air filters in their indoor units (according to the manufacturer’s specifications) and to remove debris from the exterior unit.

Mini-splits should be professionally serviced twice a year (at the beginning of heating season and the beginning of cooling season). At A#1 Air, our biannual inspection includes a coil cleaning, drain line cleaning, refrigerant level check, and more

At the end of your inspection, we’ll note any areas of concern and make recommendations for proactive repairs.

We know that in North Texas, a down heating or cooling system is more than inconvenient; it can be downright dangerous. We offer 24/7 service to restore your home’s vital systems in the event of an emergency – call  .
