Ductless Mini-Split Installation for Mettawa homes

A mini-split uses an outdoor unit and slim indoor heads connected by a small line set, needing no ductwork at all - useful on an estate for a guest wing, a sunroom, a home office, or a space the main system leaves uneven. We assess where the heads and line set can run cleanly, size each zone to its load, and place the outdoor unit discreetly on open land.

Many mini-splits also qualify as heat pumps for ComEd rebates, worth confirming before you buy since amounts change. Licensed, insured installers mount the indoor heads, route the line set out of sight where possible, set and charge the system, and register the warranty. We are honest about the trade-off most homeowners weigh: the visible indoor head.
