Beat the San Diego Heat with Mini Split AC Units

Berkley Construction San Diego Mini Split AC Units
Another hot San Diego summer is approaching and will be here before you know it! Planning ahead will give you the best options to keep your home or office cool and comfortable all summer long.
​
Older homes especially have poor insulation and there is rarely enough room for central air conditioning. A better solution to beat the heat is the mini-split or “ductless” air conditioner. Outlined below are the reasons why mini splits are becoming so popular, especially as energy prices increase.
  • Mini-splits are significantly cheaper than central air conditioning. A central AC system can cost $10,000-$20,000 depending on the existing conditions and size of the house. A mini split system averages $1,800-$2,900 installed per zone.
  • Mini-splits are much more efficient. AC is rated according to SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio.) Most central AC units are 14 SEER; a very expensive central AC unit might be 16 or 18 SEER. Most of the mini-splits we install are 20-25 SEER without breaking the bank.
  • The install on a mini-split is much less involved. We can usually complete it in a day. There is only a 3″ diameter hole from the outside condenser to the inside air handler, which is why they are called ductless AC units.
  • Most mini-split units have the ability to heat as well; these are called heat pumps.
  • Mini-splits are very quiet; most people don’t even realize they are on.
Most of our customers start with one unit. Once they realize how miserably they had been suffering in August, they end up having additional units installed for other parts of the house. These units are extraordinary, and Americans are late to the game in adopting them. They are used in Asia and all over Europe as the dominant method for heating and cooling. But please do not wait for the heat to order your mini-split! There is a 2-week lead-time on most units, and this summer they anticipate selling out of the high value units. Call us today for a free consultation on purchasing guilt free Air Conditioning!

What Our Clients Are Saying

Berkley Construction did an excellent kitchen remodeling job. They took a boring, outdated kitchen and replaced it with beautiful new countertops, a stainless-steel gas range, tile floor, tons more storage, even mounted a T.V. in there for the chef. They did a wonderful job for less than I expected! I highly recommend Berkley Construction. Read More...
