    What We Offer

    Mini-split systems deliver powerful climate control without the need for bulky ductwork. Whether you're cooling a single room, adding comfort to a garage conversion, or upgrading a historic home, ductless systems provide whisper-quiet performance and exceptional energy savings. Our team installs, repairs, and maintains all major mini-split brands across the Greater New Orleans area.

    Ductless mini-splits are especially popular in the New Orleans area where many older homes and historic properties lack central ductwork. Rather than investing in expensive duct installation, a mini-split system provides powerful, efficient climate control through a simple wall-mounted indoor unit connected to a compact outdoor compressor.

    Multi-zone mini-split systems allow you to control temperatures independently in different rooms — so you're not wasting energy cooling or heating rooms you're not using. This zoned approach can reduce energy costs by 25–40% compared to traditional central systems. We install systems from Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, LG, and other leading manufacturers.

    What to Expect

    1

    Space Evaluation

    We assess the room or zone you want to condition — measuring square footage, insulation, sun exposure, and electrical capacity to determine the right system size.

    2

    System & Placement Design

    We recommend the best indoor unit placement for optimal airflow and aesthetics, and determine the ideal outdoor unit location for efficiency and noise considerations.

    3

    Clean, Professional Installation

    Our technicians install the indoor and outdoor units with minimal disruption to your home. A small 3-inch conduit connects the two — no major construction required.

    4

    Testing & Training

    We test the system in all modes, verify proper refrigerant charge, and show you how to use the remote control and maintain your new mini-split.

    Ductless mini-splits are one of the smartest upgrades a homeowner can make — offering comfort, efficiency, and flexibility without the cost of ductwork. Keeping It Cool Heating & Air installs and services mini-split systems across Kenner, Metairie, New Orleans, and the Greater New Orleans metro.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does a ductless mini-split cost?

    Pricing depends on the number of zones, system capacity, and installation complexity, so we size it to your space and hand you a clear, upfront quote before any work begins. Single-zone installs run notably less than multi-zone systems serving several rooms. We provide free estimates for every project — call (504) 762-0331 to schedule yours.

    Are mini-splits energy efficient?

    Very. Ductless mini-splits use inverter technology to adjust compressor speed based on demand, using only the energy needed at any given moment. They also eliminate the 25–30% energy loss that occurs in traditional ducted systems. Many mini-splits achieve SEER ratings of 20+.

    Can a mini-split heat and cool?

    Yes! Mini-split heat pumps provide both heating and cooling from a single system. They're an excellent year-round solution for Louisiana's climate, offering efficient heating in winter and powerful cooling in summer.

    How long does mini-split installation take?

    A single-zone installation typically takes 4–6 hours. Multi-zone installations may take 1–2 days depending on the number of indoor units and complexity of the routing.

    Where can a mini-split be installed?

    Almost anywhere — bedrooms, living rooms, garages, sunrooms, home offices, workshops, server rooms, and more. The indoor unit mounts on a wall or ceiling and only requires a small hole for the conduit to the outdoor unit.
