Is a ductless mini-split right for your home?

Not every home (or every room) works well with a traditional ducted HVAC system. Ductless mini-splits provide heating and air conditioning directly to specific areas, making them a flexible option when extending or modifying ductwork isn’t practical.

A ductless system may be a good fit for:

Homes without existing ductwork
Additions and renovated spaces
Garages and workshops
Finished attics or upper floors
Rooms that are consistently too hot or too cold
Areas where extending ductwork would be difficult
Homes that need separate comfort zones

Ductless isn’t automatically the best solution for every home. We’ll look at your space, existing HVAC equipment, and comfort goals before recommending a system.

Ductless mini-split installation starts with the right plan

Where the indoor units go, how many zones you need, and how the system is sized all affect how well a ductless system performs. Donaldson starts by understanding the space you’re trying to heat and cool before recommending equipment.

Whether you’re conditioning one difficult room or several areas of your home, we’ll help you build a ductless setup around how you actually use the space. Ductless mini-splits are part of our air conditioning services. For whole-home systems, compare heat pumps and AC installation, and keep your system running with AC maintenance. We install ductless systems for homes in London and surrounding communities.

What to expect

A ductless system gives you more flexibility than traditional ductwork, but that makes planning the right setup especially important.

Step one

Request a free estimate

Call us now or request a free in-home estimate and tell us which areas of your home you’re trying to make more comfortable. We’ll learn about your current heating and cooling setup and what you’d like the new system to accomplish.

Step two

Home assessment

A Comfort Advisor will look at the space, its heating and cooling needs, and potential locations for the indoor and outdoor equipment. We’ll also determine whether a single-zone or multi-zone configuration makes the most sense.

Step three

Recommend

We’ll recommend appropriately sized equipment and explain the number and placement of indoor units, available options, and pricing so you understand exactly what’s being proposed.

Step four

Install

Donaldson technicians will install the indoor and outdoor equipment, connect the system, test its operation, and show you how to control your new ductless heating and cooling.

Ductless mini-split options for your home

One of the biggest advantages of ductless heating and cooling is flexibility. A system can be designed for one problem area or multiple zones throughout the home, depending on what you’re trying to accomplish.

Single-zone mini-splits

A single indoor unit connects to an outdoor unit to condition one specific area. This can work well for an addition, garage, upper floor, or another space that needs independent heating and cooling.

Multi-zone mini-splits

A multi-zone system connects multiple indoor units to an outdoor system, allowing conditioned air to be delivered to different areas of the home. It’s a practical option for homes where different rooms or floors have different comfort needs, since each zone is set on its own.

Heating and cooling from the same system

A ductless mini-split is a type of heat-pump system. Rather than only providing air conditioning, it can move heat in either direction to provide both heating and cooling.

The right setup depends on your home

More zones aren’t automatically better. The best configuration depends on your home’s layout, the areas you’re trying to condition, and how your existing heating and cooling system works.

Ductless mini-split installation FAQs

Have more questions? We’ve got the answers.

A ductless mini-split, sometimes called ductless AC or a ductless heat pump, uses an outdoor unit connected to one or more indoor units to heat and cool your home without traditional ductwork. Each indoor unit serves its own space, so you can set different temperatures in different rooms. Your in-home estimate is free. For whole-home ducted systems, compare heat pumps.

Yes. A ductless mini-split is a heat-pump system, so it can move heat in either direction: into your home in winter and out of it in summer. That lets one system keep a space comfortable all year. For a whole house with existing ducts, a ducted heat pump or hybrid system may suit better; see heat pumps.

No. That’s one of the main reasons homeowners choose ductless systems. They work well in homes or spaces where traditional ductwork isn’t available or practical, such as additions, garages, workshops and finished attics. Book your free in-home estimate through our contact page.

Yes. Multi-zone systems connect several indoor units to one outdoor system, so different areas of your home can be conditioned separately. The right number of zones depends on your home’s layout and comfort needs, and more zones aren’t automatically better. We’ll recommend a setup during your free in-home estimate; request one through our contact page.

Ductless systems can work in many places, including homes without ductwork, additions, renovated areas, upper floors, garages and rooms with persistent comfort problems. An in-home assessment is the best way to choose suitable equipment and placement, and it’s free for new installations. For central air, see AC installation.

Sizing depends on the space being conditioned rather than simply its square footage. Layout and other characteristics of the home also matter, which is why Donaldson assesses the space before recommending equipment. Your in-home estimate is free: request one through our contact page.

The cost depends on the size of your home or space, the equipment you choose and whether you need a single-zone or multi-zone system. The number and placement of indoor units also affect the price. Donaldson will assess your space and give you a free, detailed estimate for the system that fits your home. To spread the cost, see our financing options.
