Make that garage, casita or added room comfortable

Your central AC was sized for the house, not the garage you've turned into a gym, shop or office. A mini split cools the space independently, without new ductwork through finished walls. Most mini splits we install are heat pumps, so they heat the room on winter nights too.

An uninsulated garage needs sizing that accounts for the heat getting in. We measure the space and account for ceiling height, insulation, sun and how you use it—not just guess at equipment size.

Our process

How we size and install it

01

Free sizing visit

Usually 60 to 90 minutes. We measure the space, check the electrical and give you a written price.

02

Sized by Manual J

A Manual J load calculation accounts for ceiling height, insulation, sun and how you use the room.

03

Installed to the written price

Your written price is the price you pay. The only exception is something nobody could see before work started, such as a leaking line set inside a wall or burned attic wiring. We show you before touching it.

04

Quality-control visit

A separate visit after installation checks the work.

Already have an install quote? Check what's included.

Compare it line by line with the list above. A single-zone system serves one room. Cooling two or more rooms? Multi-zone systems run about $5,000 per indoor head; we put the whole price, every head and the outdoor unit, in writing at the free sizing visit before you approve anything.

Call 520-655-8551 or book online for a measured, written installation quote.

Compare the options before choosing

For additions, casitas and garage conversions, a mini split usually costs less than extending ducts. We price both so you can compare.

We're a TEP participating contractor. TEP offers up to $100 per ton on qualifying mini splits. Financing plans run from 3 months to 15 years for approved buyers; 0% APR options are available. See financing.
