Most homeowners rely on their air conditioners almost every day in the summer. It’s no different in Southeast Michigan, where we’re accustomed to sweltering outside temperatures. We recommend trusting a professional for your AC services, including repair, installation, and regular maintenance.
At Iceberg Heating & Cooling, the customer is our top priority. We’re constantly looking for ways to improve our home cooling options and ensure long-term comfort for our customers. One of those ways is through ductless air conditioning.
We’re Southeast Michigan’s choice for ductless mini-split services. Call today to schedule installation, repair, or maintenance!
How Do Ductless Mini-Splits Work?
Ductless splits are an ideal cooling alternative to more complex forced air systems and furnaces. They consist of two major parts: the indoor and outdoor units. The indoor unit is often wall-mounted and works with the outside unit to cool a specific area of the house.
You don’t have to worry about messy ductwork by choosing ductless mini-splits for your residence. The two units are minimally invasive and ready for installation by an HVAC expert. Ductless air conditioning allows you to control your home’s temperature like you never could before with a traditional system.

Ductless mini-split work requires the utmost precision. The technician must understand the complex equipment well enough to ensure optimal energy efficiency, proper sizing, and proper placement. Rest assured that Iceberg Heating & Cooling can handle all your ductless mini-split services in Southeast Michigan.

Advantages of Installing Ductless Air Conditioning
Here are a few benefits of updating your residence with ductless air conditioning:

- Better air quality: Give your family the gift of cleaner, healthier air free of irritants and pollutants.
- Cost-effective: Think of ductless air conditioning as an investment. This HVAC solution is more energy-efficient than central AC, which means lower utility bills and fewer system breakdowns.

Ductless Mini-Split FAQs
How do I choose between single-zone and multi-zone ductless setups?
Pick based on how independently you want to control spaces, total capacity needed, and line-set routes. A quick in-home assessment confirms the best condenser size and number of indoor heads.
Where should indoor heads be mounted for the best comfort?
Place heads high on an interior wall with clear airflow and away from heat sources. Avoid blowing directly down long hallways or across a central thermostat that could confuse other systems.
What are typical limits on line-set length and elevation?
Manufacturers list maximum total length and vertical separation between indoor and outdoor units. Your installer will design routes that stay within those limits to protect efficiency and capacity.
How should the outdoor unit be placed for Michigan snow and ice?
Mount it on a sturdy pad or wall bracket high enough to clear typical snow levels, with open airflow on all sides. Keep it away from roof runoff and downspouts.
What electrical details should be checked before installing ductless?
Plan for dedicated circuits, a correctly sized breaker, and an outdoor disconnect. An electrician or HVAC installer will verify panel capacity and grounding.
Can ductless work alongside my central AC or furnace?
Yes. Many homes keep central HVAC for main areas and add ductless heads for hard-to-condition rooms or additions. Controls remain independent so you can run only what you need.
Will a mini-split help with humidity in July and August?
Long, low-speed cooling cycles remove more moisture than quick blasts of cold air. Correct sizing and auto fan settings usually deliver steadier indoor humidity.
Should I choose wall-mounted heads or ceiling cassettes?
Wall units are fast to install and easy to service. Ceiling cassettes hide the equipment and distribute air evenly but need more structural access. Ceiling height and joist direction guide the choice.
What care can homeowners handle between pro visits?
Turn the head off, open the front cover, rinse washable filters, and check that the drain path is clear. Let filters dry fully before reinstalling.
Do I need permits for new ductless equipment around Monroe?
Many municipalities require permits for mechanical and electrical work. Iceberg Heating & Cooling can verify what’s needed and schedule inspections.
