What is a Ductless Mini-Split System?
A ductless mini-split system is a type of HVAC solution that provides both heating and cooling using a wall-mounted indoor unit connected to an outdoor compressor. Unlike traditional central systems, mini-splits don’t require ductwork, making them ideal for retrofits or areas where running ducts isn’t practical or affordable.
Each indoor unit operates independently, offering zoned temperature control—a huge advantage when it comes to comfort. Whether you need one indoor unit or several, we’ll design a system that fits your space and your budget.

Common Mini-Split Problems We Fix
Even the most dependable ductless systems can run into trouble over time, especially without regular mini-split maintenance. At Dawson's Electric & Air, we’re experienced in diagnosing and repairing a wide range of issues to get your system cooling again quickly.
One of the most common problems homeowners face is a mini-split that doesn’t heat or cool properly. This can stem from a refrigerant leak, a failing compressor, or a clogged filter that restricts airflow. Other times, the system may not turn on at all, often due to electrical issues, a malfunctioning thermostat, or internal component failure.
If your unit is making strange noises, producing unusual smells, or leaking water, these are signs that something’s off. Noisy operation may point to a worn fan motor, while foul odors could indicate mold buildup inside the unit. Water leaks are typically caused by clogged condensate lines or improper installation, which can lead to moisture damage if not resolved quickly.
