Hey there! We're the folks at Horne HVAC Charlotte, a family-owned business that loves helping our neighbors stay comfortable all year round. If you're thinking about making your garage more functional and cozy, a ductless mini-split system might be just what you need. 

The Installation Process

1. Getting Started
   First things first, we'll come over to check out your garage. Our friendly team will measure the space, check out the insulation, and make sure your electrical setup can handle the new system. This helps us figure out the perfect unit for your garage.

2. Picking the Right System
   We offer a range of ductless mini-split systems. For most garages, a single-zone system does the trick. It gives you both heating and cooling, so you’re comfortable no matter the season.

3. Setting Up the Outdoor Unit
   We'll find a good spot outside your garage to place the compressor unit. It needs to be somewhere with plenty of airflow and away from things that might block it.

4. Installing the Indoor Unit
   The indoor unit will be mounted on your garage wall, usually up high to distribute air evenly. We drill a small hole through the wall for the connecting lines, keeping everything neat and tidy.

5. Connecting Everything
   Our team will run the refrigerant lines, electrical wires, and a drain line through the wall. These are all properly insulated and covered to ensure they last.

6. Powering Up
   We’ll make sure your system has its own electrical circuit, then charge the refrigerant lines and test everything to make sure it’s working perfectly.

7. Final Checks
   Before we go, we'll run the system through its paces to make sure it’s all set. We’ll also show you how to use the remote and adjust the settings.

Why You'll Love a Ductless Mini-Split System

1. Energy Efficiency
   These systems are super efficient because they don’t lose energy through ducts. That means you’ll see some savings on your energy bills.

2. Customized Comfort
   You can set the perfect temperature for your garage, separate from the rest of your home. It’s great for making a comfortable workspace or hangout spot.

3. Quick and Easy Installation
   Since we don’t need to mess with ductwork, installing a ductless mini-split is pretty straightforward. We can usually get it done quickly.

4. Cleaner Air
   Many of our systems come with filters that help clean the air, reducing dust and allergens. It’s a nice bonus for anyone spending a lot of time in the garage.

5. Year-Round Comfort
   Whether it's hot or cold outside, a mini-split can keep your garage comfortable all year long.

A Few Things to Keep in Mind

1. Upfront Cost
   The initial cost might be higher than other options, but it’s worth it for the efficiency and convenience you get.

2. Looks
   The indoor unit is visible on your wall, which might not be everyone’s favorite look. But we have sleek designs that can blend in nicely.

3. Maintenance
   You’ll need to clean the filters regularly and get occasional professional maintenance. We offer easy maintenance plans to keep things simple.

4. Cold Weather Performance
   In really cold weather, the heating might not be as powerful as a traditional system. But in Charlotte, this isn’t usually a big issue.

At Horne HVAC Charlotte, we’re all about making your home (and garage!) a comfortable place to be. A ductless mini-split system is a great way to add heating and cooling to your garage without breaking the bank. Plus, you get the benefits of cleaner air and energy savings.
