Installing Ductless Mini Split Air Conditioners
Posted by AC World on November 20th, 2015
If you’re thinking about buying a ductless mini split air conditioner then you likely have many questions. AC-World is here to help you understand the process and to answer any questions you have. Read on to discover answers to the most frequently asked questions and then contact us with any further questions.
Can I install a ductless mini split air conditioner myself?
It’s definitely possible for people to install their own units. Anyone who has experience with handyman work can likely handle installing both the exterior and interior pieces. However, in most cases they’d need to hire an electrical to hard wire the exterior unit. For people who aren’t excellent handymen, we do suggest hiring an HVAC professional for proper installation.
One thing to keep in mind is that some companies will only honor their warranties if the unit is installed by a professional. At AC-World we disagree with our competitors on this point and honor our warranty regardless of whether or not a professional installed the unit.
How much would it cost to have a professional install our unit?
If you do decide to hire an HVAC professional, the cost will of course vary based on the unit you choose and the going rate in the particular area in which you live. However, in our experience, it will likely cost just a few hundred dollars. For many people, this expense is well worth it because they’ll know it’s installed correctly and can use it for years to come.
What kind of warranty do I get if I self-install?
Other companies may not offer a warranty for self-installation, but at AC-World you get our full warranty no matter who installs it. That includes free parts for the first year and a five year warranty on the compressor. This no-hassle warranty ensures the unit you get will work well for years to come. We believe in our products and stand by them!
