If you’re interested in ductless AC in Asheville, NC, 1st Choice Service Group Heating & Air name is here to help. A mini-split AC is among the most energy-efficient cooling solutions on the market.

    Our HVAC technicians have extensive experience sizing and installing them. We offer mini-splits from top brands like Lennox and Mitsubishi.

    Many of those systems are Energy Star certified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ENERGY STAR mini-splits are up to 60% more efficient than standard central air conditioning. Choosing ENERGY STAR may also make you eligible for various rebates and credits.

    Premium Mini-Split AC Installations

    1st Choice Service Group Heating & Air offers both single-zone and multi-zone ductless AC systems. A single-zone mini-split AC has one indoor air handler. A multi-zone setup has two or more. We can set your system up as a standalone cooling solution. Many mini-split systems use a heat pump so they can be used for both heating and cooling.

    Ductless air conditioners are very flexible. Most systems allow you to install up to eight indoor air handlers. A common configuration is a unit in each bedroom and one or two units for large spaces like living rooms. You can also add more indoor units later, such as when converting a garage or attic. For very large homes, you can add a second condenser unit and link them.

    Most of our customers install indoor units high up on their walls, but that isn’t your only option. Floor installation is an option for rooms that require it. You can also have us install them on your ceilings. Many brands offer a cassette configuration that makes modern ceiling installs much easier.

    If you’re experiencing issues with an existing mini-split, replacement isn’t your only option. We also offer a full range of ductless AC repair services. Our technicians can quickly diagnose and fix whatever problem you have.

    The benefits of a mini-split AC include:
    • Energy-efficient cooling
    • Remote access and control
    • Flexible HVAC zoning options
    • Low installation requirements
    • Federal tax credit and energy incentives
