Ductless Air Conditioning/ Mini Split Services
Ductless AC Service From Certified Technicians!
Ductless Air Conditioning in Corpus Christi
Do you have trouble keeping every room comfortable for everyone in the house. Some family members run cold while others are always warm. Maybe your central AC is older and struggling, and you are researching the next system to install. Mathews CCAC ductless air conditioners provide a flexible solution for comfort and efficiency. Mini splits deliver cooling exactly where you need it and they can help lower energy use by avoiding wasted airflow in unused rooms. Our team designs and installs systems that match your home, from a single room to a whole house layout.
How Does a Ductless System Work
A ductless air conditioning system gives you control of comfort room by room. These systems are also called mini splits. Each indoor unit mounts on a wall or ceiling and connects to a quiet outdoor compressor by small refrigerant lines. Cool air is delivered directly into the space without traveling through ductwork. You set the temperature on the indoor unit panel or a handheld remote. One outdoor unit can serve multiple indoor units so you can create zones that match how your family uses the home.
Because air does not move through long ducts, there is less energy loss to hot attics or crawl spaces. That helps boost efficiency and can improve comfort in rooms that never seem to cool evenly with a central system. Many mini split models are heat pumps, which means they can provide efficient heating in cooler months as well as cooling in summer. This makes ductless a smart year round comfort solution for South Texas homes.
- Precise temperature control for each zone
- Little to no energy loss from leaky or uninsulated ducts
- High efficiency operation that can help reduce utility costs
- Quiet performance that keeps bedrooms and offices peaceful
Where Ductless Shines
The versatility of a ductless system makes it a great choice for many situations. If you are adding a room, converting a garage, finishing an attic, or updating a sunroom, ductless lets you avoid the cost and disruption of extending ductwork. Older homes without existing ducts benefit too. Historic properties can gain modern comfort with minimal remodeling because the refrigerant lines pass through a small opening in the wall. Home offices and media rooms are popular candidates since quiet, targeted cooling helps with productivity and enjoyment.
Homeowners with hot and cold spots also see an immediate difference. A single zone unit can cool a stubborn back bedroom without overcooling the rest of the house. Multi zone designs let you keep living areas cooler during the day and set bedrooms a little warmer while they are not in use. You choose the zones that fit your lifestyle so comfort and efficiency work together.
Our Ductless Installation Process
Mathews CCAC starts with a right sized design. We evaluate square footage, insulation, sun exposure, window count, and how you use each room. Proper sizing matters for comfort and efficiency. We then help you choose indoor unit styles and placements. Wall mounted units work in most spaces, while low wall or ceiling cassette options fit special layouts. On installation day we protect work areas, mount the indoor units, set the outdoor condenser, run and seal the line sets, and commission the system to manufacturer specifications. Before we leave, we show you how to use the controls and how to clean the filters so you get the best performance from day one.
Care and Maintenance
Ductless systems are known for reliability, but routine care keeps them at their best. Rinse or vacuum the washable filters on a regular schedule. Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear of landscaping for proper airflow. Schedule a seasonal tune up so our technicians can clean coils, check electrical connections, verify refrigerant levels, and test performance. Regular maintenance helps maintain efficiency, reduces the chance of unexpected repairs, and supports long equipment life.
Costs and Long Term Value
Upfront cost varies with the number of zones, equipment features, and installation complexity. Many homeowners find that avoiding duct modifications and targeting only the rooms that need cooling makes ductless a cost effective option. Over time, high efficiency operation and zone control can help lower utility bills compared to running a whole house central system for one or two occupied rooms. Our team provides clear proposals so you can compare options and choose the setup that fits your budget and goals.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many rooms can one outdoor unit serve.
Many systems support two to eight indoor units per outdoor condenser, depending on model and capacity. We design the layout based on your rooms and comfort needs.
Can a mini split replace my central AC.
Yes in some homes, especially where ducts are impractical or inefficient. In other cases a hybrid approach works well by using ductless for problem areas and keeping central AC for the main living zones.
Do mini splits heat as well as cool.
Most modern ductless systems are heat pumps. They provide efficient cooling in summer and comfortable heating during mild South Texas winters.
Other Things to Know About a Ductless System
If you add a room later, it is simple to expand most multi zone systems with an additional indoor unit. You get comfort without opening walls for new ducts. For remodels, the small wall penetration for line sets helps preserve finishes. Ductless also pairs well with improved insulation and air sealing, which can further reduce energy costs. Everyone in the family can choose a preferred temperature in their own space while you maintain an efficient system and a manageable monthly bill. If your home does not have central ducts, or if they are in poor condition, ductless is a practical and comfortable alternative that can save money over time.
Our professionals at Mathews CCAC can have a system installed in your home with minimal disruption. We handle permits and code requirements, and we stand behind our work.
