Ductless mini-splits for the houses Portland actually has
Ductless mini-splits solve the most Portland problem there is: a beautiful older home with radiators or baseboards, zero ductwork, and — since the heat domes — a desperate need for cooling. One outdoor unit, slim indoor heads, no walls torn open.

Where mini-splits shine
- Pre-1960s homes with boiler or baseboard heat and no ducts — the classic case.
- Additions, ADUs, converted attics and garages where extending ducts is absurd.
- The one room that's always wrong — an upstairs office that bakes, a north bedroom that never warms.
- Whole-home multi-zone setups: each room its own temperature, each head whisper-quiet.
Honest talk on the trade-offs
Heads are visible on the wall — design-conscious clients sometimes prefer floor-mount or recessed options, and we'll show you all three. Multi-zone systems need thoughtful sizing; an oversized head short-cycles and leaves rooms clammy. This is the same honest-sizing discipline as our central heat pump installs, and the same rebates often apply (placeholder — verified at assessment). Pair with air quality upgrades if smoke season hits your street hard, and keep it all healthy with the Care Plan.
