What Is a Mini Split Air Conditioner System?

A ductless mini split air conditioner is a cooling system that works without traditional ductwork. It uses an outdoor condenser unit connected to a wall-mounted indoor air handler through a small conduit.

Where a Complete Mini Split System Works Best in Florida

A complete mini split system is one of the most practical cooling solutions for Florida’s heat, especially in spaces that do not have existing ductwork or that need independent temperature control.

How It Works

Step 1

The wall unit draws warm air from your room.

Step 2

The refrigerant carries absorbed heat to the outdoor condenser where it is released.

Step 3

The indoor fan blows cooled air back into the room.
