Mini split installation

Dedicated circuits, disconnects and wiring for ductless mini split systems, so your new unit has the power it needs.

A ductless mini split heats and cools a room or area without ductwork. People use them for additions, garages, bonus rooms and older homes without ducts. Every system needs electrical work to run, including a dedicated circuit from your panel and a disconnect near the outdoor unit.

We handle the electrical side. The units and refrigerant lines are installed by an HVAC contractor, and we make sure the power is sized for the equipment and installed to current electrical code.

How it works

Send us the spec sheet or model information for the system, or have your HVAC contractor share it. That tells us what size circuit the unit needs. We check your panel for space and capacity and give you a written estimate.

We then run the circuit, mount the disconnect and connect power to the outdoor unit, scheduled around your HVAC contractor’s work. If your panel is full, we go over the options before any work starts. A permit is usually part of the job.

Signs you need it

When to give us a call.

Any of these is a good reason to have us take a look.

01

A mini split is on order

The circuit should be ready by the time the HVAC contractor sets the unit.

02

A new addition or bonus room

Rooms the main system doesn’t reach are a common place for a mini split.

03

A garage or workshop

Heating and cooling a garage takes its own circuit, which may mean a longer run from the panel.

04

A multi-zone system

Larger outdoor units serving several rooms can need a bigger circuit.

05

Your panel is full

No open spaces in the panel means we need to look at options before the circuit goes in.

06

Replacing window units

Window units on everyday outlets can be replaced with a mini split on its own circuit.

Can my current panel handle one?

It depends on the unit and how much capacity and space your panel has. We check before the work is scheduled.
