DUCTLESS MINI-SPLIT SYSTEMS

Almost every older Kansas City house has one room that never works — the finished attic that bakes, the addition on the end of an undersized trunk line, the sunroom nobody uses in August, the garage workshop that's unusable half the year. A ductless mini-split fixes that room without tearing into walls to run new ductwork.

A ductless system pairs a small outdoor condenser with one or more slim indoor heads, connected by a line set through a three-inch wall penetration. Each head is its own zone with its own thermostat, so you heat and cool the space you're actually in — which is why mini-splits usually cost less to run than extending a central system that's already at its limit.

Metro Heating & Air handles placement, sizing and the details that decide whether a mini-split looks professional or looks improvised: level mounting, a proper condensate route with fall, a neatly covered line set on the exterior, and a disconnect installed to code. Single-zone or multi-zone, we spec it for the room's real heat load.

We also service and repair existing ductless equipment, including systems we didn't install. If a head is icing up, leaking, or throwing a communication fault, we can diagnose it.
