Ductless Comfort

What Is a Mini Split System?

A mini split system, also known as a ductless mini split, is a highly efficient heating and cooling system that does not require traditional ductwork. It consists of two main components: a compact outdoor condenser unit and one or more indoor air-handling units mounted on the wall or ceiling. The two are connected by a small conduit that carries refrigerant lines, power cables, and a condensate drain.

Unlike central air conditioning that cools your entire home through a single thermostat, mini splits allow you to create independent temperature zones. Each indoor unit has its own thermostat and remote control, so you can set different temperatures in different rooms. This zone control means you only cool or heat the spaces you are actually using, which can dramatically reduce your energy consumption.

Mini splits have been the dominant cooling technology in Asia and Europe for decades and have gained significant popularity in the United States over the past 10 to 15 years. Modern mini split systems are incredibly efficient, with some models achieving SEER ratings above 30 — nearly double the efficiency of most traditional central AC systems. They also provide both cooling and heating, making them a versatile year-round comfort solution.

In St. George and Southern Utah, mini splits have become an increasingly popular choice for homeowners looking to add cooling to spaces that lack ductwork, supplement an existing central system, or achieve more precise temperature control throughout their home.

Advantages

Benefits of Mini Split Systems

Mini splits offer unique advantages that make them an excellent choice for many homes and applications in Southern Utah.

No Ductwork Required

Mini splits eliminate the need for costly ductwork installation. The indoor and outdoor units are connected by a small conduit that only requires a three-inch hole through the wall. This makes installation faster, less invasive, and significantly less expensive than running new ductwork through your home.

Zone Control

Each indoor unit operates independently with its own thermostat. Set the bedroom to 72 degrees while keeping the living room at 76 degrees. Cool the home office during the day without wasting energy on empty bedrooms. Zone control gives you precision comfort while minimizing waste.

Superior Energy Efficiency

Mini splits are among the most efficient cooling and heating systems available. Inverter-driven compressors adjust output to match the actual load rather than cycling on and off. Combined with the elimination of duct losses (which can account for 20 to 30 percent of energy waste), mini splits can cut your cooling costs dramatically.

Heating and Cooling

Every mini split system we install provides both cooling and heating. During St. George's mild winters, the system reverses operation to extract heat from the outdoor air and bring it inside. This dual functionality means one system handles your comfort needs year-round.

Whisper-Quiet Operation

Modern mini split indoor units operate at noise levels as low as 19 decibels — quieter than a whisper. The compressor is located outside, so there is virtually no noise inside your home. This makes mini splits ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, home offices, and media rooms where silence matters.

Easy Installation

Most mini split installations can be completed in a single day with minimal disruption to your home. There is no need to tear into walls or ceilings to run ductwork, no major construction mess, and no extended downtime. You can be enjoying cool, comfortable air the same day we arrive.

Perfect For

Ideal Applications for Mini Splits

While mini splits can be used as a whole-home cooling and heating solution (especially with multi-zone configurations), they truly excel in specific applications where traditional ductwork is impractical, too expensive, or simply unavailable.

Garages and Workshops

St. George garages can reach 140 degrees or more in summer, making them unusable for extended periods. A mini split transforms your garage into a comfortable workspace year-round without the need to extend your home's ductwork.

Room Additions and Conversions

Adding a bedroom, converting a garage to a living space, or finishing a basement? Mini splits provide efficient heating and cooling without the expense of extending your existing duct system.

Sunrooms and Enclosed Patios

These spaces are notoriously difficult to heat and cool with central systems due to their large glass areas and exposure to direct sunlight. A mini split provides targeted, powerful cooling exactly where it is needed.

Older Homes Without Ductwork

Many older homes in the St. George area were built without central air ductwork. Rather than the expense and disruption of retrofitting ductwork, mini splits provide modern cooling comfort with minimal modification to your home.

Rooms That Are Always Too Hot or Cold

If your central system cannot keep certain rooms comfortable — common with upstairs bedrooms, rooms over garages, or rooms with lots of sun exposure — a supplemental mini split provides the extra cooling those spaces need.

Casitas and Mother-in-Law Suites

Separate living spaces on your property need independent climate control. A mini split gives these spaces their own thermostat and system without tapping into your main home's HVAC.

Common Questions

Mini Split FAQ

How much does mini split installation cost in St. George?
The cost of a mini split installation in the St. George area typically ranges from $3,000 to $6,000 for a single-zone system, depending on the brand, capacity, and complexity of the installation. Multi-zone systems that serve multiple rooms cost more. We offer free on-site consultations and detailed quotes so you know exactly what to expect. Financing options are also available to help make the investment more manageable.
How does a mini split compare to central AC?
Mini splits offer several advantages over central AC, including higher energy efficiency ratings (some models exceed 30 SEER), zone-by-zone temperature control, no ductwork losses, and quieter operation. Central AC is typically better for cooling an entire home uniformly through existing ductwork. In Southern Utah, many homeowners use mini splits to supplement central AC in problem areas like garages, room additions, or rooms that are always too hot.
Do mini splits work for both heating and cooling?
Yes, every mini split system we install in the St. George area provides both cooling and heating. In heating mode, the system works as a heat pump, extracting thermal energy from the outdoor air and delivering it inside. Southern Utah's mild winters are ideal for heat pump performance, so a mini split can efficiently handle your heating needs for most of the season while also providing powerful cooling during our intense summers.
What maintenance does a mini split require?
Mini splits require relatively simple maintenance compared to central AC systems. You should clean or rinse the washable filters in the indoor unit every two to four weeks during heavy use, keep the outdoor unit free of debris and vegetation, and schedule a professional maintenance visit once a year. During the annual service, our technicians clean the indoor coil, check refrigerant levels, inspect electrical connections, and verify overall system performance.
How do I know what size mini split I need?
Choosing the right size mini split depends on the square footage of the space, ceiling height, sun exposure, insulation quality, and how the room is used. An undersized unit will struggle to keep up during St. George's extreme summer heat, while an oversized unit will short-cycle and waste energy. During our free on-site consultation, we perform a detailed load calculation to recommend the ideal capacity for your specific application.
