Professional Ductless Mini Split Installation in Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky
Traditional HVAC systems depend on ductwork to distribute conditioned air. When ducts cannot reach a space, or when extending them costs more than the room is worth, a ductless mini split provides the perfect alternative. These systems connect an outdoor compressor to one or more indoor air handlers through small refrigerant lines, requiring only a 3-inch hole through the wall.
Our team at AnyWeather Heating & Air has installed hundreds of ductless systems across the Greater Cincinnati area since 2017. We work with leading manufacturers including Mitsubishi, Fujitsu, Daikin, and LG to match the right equipment to your specific application. Every installation starts with a proper load calculation to ensure your system delivers the heating and cooling capacity your space actually needs.
Mini split technology has advanced significantly in recent years. Modern units operate at SEER ratings up to 30, far exceeding traditional central air conditioners. They provide both heating and cooling from a single system, with some models effective down to -13°F according to ENERGY STAR specifications.
Our technicians hold current HVAC licenses in Kentucky and Ohio with specialized training in ductless system installation and service.

How Ductless Mini Split Systems Work
Understanding the technology helps you appreciate why mini splits deliver such consistent comfort and efficiency.
The Outdoor Unit:
A compact condenser/compressor unit sits outside your home, similar to a central AC condenser but often smaller. This unit pumps refrigerant through insulated lines connecting to indoor air handlers.
The Indoor Air Handler:
Wall-mounted, ceiling-mounted, or floor-mounted units distribute conditioned air directly into each room. Each handler includes its own fan, evaporator coil, and filter. Most units mount high on walls where they circulate air efficiently without taking floor space.
The Connection:
A small conduit (typically 3 inches) passes through the wall, containing refrigerant lines, electrical wiring, and condensate drainage. This minimal penetration avoids the major construction required for ductwork.
Zone Control:
Each indoor unit operates independently with its own thermostat or remote control. You heat or cool only occupied spaces, avoiding the energy waste of conditioning empty rooms. Multi-zone systems connect multiple indoor units to a single outdoor compressor.
Heating and Cooling:
Most mini splits function as heat pumps, reversing refrigerant flow to provide both heating and cooling from the same system.
Perfect Applications for Ductless Mini Split Systems
Mini splits excel in situations where traditional ductwork fails or does not exist. Here are the most common applications we install throughout Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky:
Home Additions and Sunrooms:
New rooms often lack connections to existing ductwork. Running new ducts through finished spaces costs thousands and disrupts your home. A ductless system conditions the addition independently without major construction.
Converted Garages and Workshops:
Garage spaces rarely have HVAC connections. A mini split transforms your workshop, home gym, or converted living space into a year-round comfortable room.
Bonus Rooms Over Garages:
These spaces notoriously suffer from extreme temperatures because they sit outside your home's thermal envelope. Dedicated mini split zoning solves the problem permanently.
Older Homes Without Ductwork:
Many historic and older homes in Florence, Erlanger, and Cincinnati neighborhoods use radiators or baseboard heat. Adding central air means invasive ductwork installation. Ductless systems provide cooling without gutting walls and ceilings.
Hot or Cold Rooms:
Even homes with central HVAC often have problem rooms. Second floors that overheat, finished basements that stay cold, or bedrooms that never match the thermostat setting all benefit from supplemental mini split zoning.
Home Offices:
Remote workers need consistent comfort during business hours. A dedicated mini split keeps your workspace comfortable without heating or cooling empty rooms.

Our Ductless Mini Split Installation Process
Every installation follows a systematic approach that ensures proper sizing, clean installation, and verified operation.
Step 1: Site Evaluation
A comfort advisor visits your property to assess the space requiring climate control. We measure room dimensions, evaluate insulation, note window exposure, and identify the best locations for indoor and outdoor units. This information determines equipment sizing and installation approach.
Step 2: System Design and Quote
Within 48 hours, you receive a detailed proposal covering equipment specifications, installation scope, and investment. We explain capacity options, efficiency ratings, and available financing including 0% interest for qualified buyers. No pressure, no obligation.
Step 3: Professional Installation
Installation day proceeds efficiently. Our crew mounts the outdoor unit on a concrete pad or wall bracket, installs the indoor handler(s), and routes refrigerant lines through the small wall penetration. Electrical connections complete the system. Most single-zone installations finish in one day.
Step 4: System Commissioning
Before leaving, we evacuate refrigerant lines, verify proper charge, and test the entire system through heating and cooling cycles. You see your mini split operating correctly in both modes. We demonstrate remote control operation, explain filter maintenance, and answer every question.
Step 5: Follow-Up
One week after installation, we confirm satisfaction and address any questions. We schedule your first annual maintenance visit and register manufacturer warranties. Regular maintenance keeps your system running efficiently for years.
