Ductless Mini Split AC in Carnegie, PA

What Is a Ductless Mini Split AC?

A ductless mini split consists of an outdoor compressor/condenser unit and one or more indoor air-handling units connected by a slender refrigerant line. Each zone operates independently, allowing you to set custom temperatures room by room. Without bulky ductwork, installation is minimally invasive, making mini splits ideal for older homes, additions, garages, and sunrooms common throughout our Service Areas in Carnegie, PA. Sureway Heating Cooling Plumbing ensures proper sizing, zoning, and placement for optimal results.

Advantages of Going Ductless

• Zoned Comfort: Control individual rooms or zones, eliminating hot or cold spots and reducing energy waste.
• Energy Efficiency: High SEER ratings and inverter-driven compressors adapt output to real-time demand, trimming utility bills up to 30%.
• Quiet Operation: Modern indoor units operate below 25 dB—quieter than a whisper—so you can sleep or work without disturbance.
• Flexible Installation: Just a three-inch hole through an exterior wall connects indoor and outdoor units—no attic ducts or drywall demolition.
• Heating & Cooling in One: Most mini splits offer heat pump functionality, providing both winter warmth and summer cooling in one compact system.

Sureway Heating Cooling Plumbing helps you choose models that deliver all these benefits without sacrificing design or function.

• Finished Basements or Attics: Extend year-round comfort to lower or upper levels without invasive remodeling.
• Sunrooms & Home Offices: Maintain consistent temperatures in spaces with large windows or irregular layouts.
• Garages & Workshops: Create conditioned work areas for hobbies or projects throughout seasonal extremes.
• Room Additions & In-Law Suites: Provide independent comfort zones without tying into an existing HVAC system.
