A/C had been out for a couple days. Heat index 105° , 90 ° in house. I called 15 + HVAC companies and the earliest appointment time anybody could come was a week away. I called Barneys . He shot me straight and told me " I'll get you up and going today but it's going to be in the evening." He showed up about 7 pm which is perfectly fine as it was hot. He fixed the problem in 15 mins ( needed refrigerant ) He charged a very fair price. He stands by his word. LIFESAVER!! VERY COOL NOW!!!

First time (in this house) getting our heat pump inspected. Technician was detailed in explaining what was both good & bad about our 12 year-old system. He explained that our system was still functional but also showed us a part that might fail in the future. He tested the part in our presence & gave us a fair price for replacement (which we did). We were comfortable enough with the service that we are likely to purchase a service/maintenance agreement this Fall.

I was impressed with the knowledge he had and how fair their pricing was. I'm a single woman that lives alone with my children and I did not once feel uncomfortable with them or feel like they were trying to get over on me.

Most Common Mini Split Installation Questions

Ductless mini splits are an increasingly popular choice for home comfort due to their high efficiency and flexibility. They are a great solution for homes without existing ductwork or for targeting specific comfort problems. As a newer technology for many homeowners, they often generate a lot of questions about how they work and what the installation involves.

The number of indoor units, or heads, that you can connect to a single outdoor condenser depends on the specific model of the outdoor unit. This is a key consideration when designing a multi zone mini split system. Most major manufacturers offer a range of multi zone outdoor units that are designed to support anywhere from two to eight indoor units. This allows for a great deal of flexibility in creating a customized comfort solution for your home. You could have one unit in the master bedroom, one in the living room, and one in a home office, all running off a single, quiet outdoor condenser.

It is important to understand that the total capacity of all the connected indoor units can often exceed the total capacity of the outdoor unit. This is not a problem and is actually a common design practice. The system operates on the assumption that you will not typically be running all the indoor units at their maximum capacity at the same exact time. The outdoor unit’s inverter technology allows it to ramp its output up or down to match the combined demand of the indoor units that are currently calling for heating or cooling.

Our system designers at Barney’s Heating and Air will perform a careful load calculation for each zone and for the house as a whole. This ensures that we select an outdoor unit with enough capacity to meet your home’s peak demand while also choosing appropriately sized indoor units for each individual space. Proper system matching is critical for ensuring that your multi zone system operates efficiently and provides the comfort you expect in every room. We have the expertise to design a perfectly balanced system for your Clarksville home.

No, this is a common misconception. While they are excellent air conditioners, virtually all mini split systems sold in North America are actually heat pumps. This means they are designed to provide both high efficiency cooling in the summer and high efficiency heating in the winter. They work on the same principle as a conventional heat pump, by moving heat from one place to another. In the winter, they absorb heat from the outdoor air and move it inside to warm your home. This makes them a complete, all in one solution for year round comfort.

Modern mini splits, especially cold climate models, are remarkably effective at heating, even in very low outdoor temperatures. Many standard models can heat efficiently down to about 5 degrees Fahrenheit. There are also specialized “hyper heat” or low temperature models available that can provide significant heat output even when the outdoor temperature drops as low as 15 degrees below zero. For the climate in Clarksville, TN, a standard high efficiency mini split is more than capable of providing all the heating your home needs for the entire winter, and doing so with incredible energy efficiency.

This dual functionality is one of the greatest strengths of a ductless mini split system. You get a top tier air conditioner and a super efficient heater in one sleek, quiet package. This eliminates the need for a separate furnace and air conditioner, simplifying your home’s mechanical systems. Whether you are looking to supplement an existing system or provide the sole source of heating and cooling for a space, a mini split is a versatile and powerful choice for any season.

Ductless mini split systems offer a great deal of flexibility when it comes to placing the indoor units, but the most common and often most effective location is high on a wall. This is the “high wall” unit that most people picture when they think of a mini split. Placing the unit high on an exterior wall allows for easy routing of the line set and provides excellent, draft free air distribution throughout the room. The unit’s louvers can be adjusted to direct the conditioned air where it is needed most. This is the most popular and cost effective type of indoor unit.

However, manufacturers have developed several other styles of indoor units to provide more aesthetic options and solve different installation challenges. A “floor mount” unit is a great option for rooms with low, slanted ceilings, like a converted attic, or for replacing an old radiator. These units are installed at the base of a wall and are very effective at heating, as they deliver warm air at floor level. There are also “ceiling cassette” units, which are installed flush into the ceiling. These are very discreet and provide four way air delivery, making them ideal for large, open spaces.

For homeowners who want the benefits of a ductless system but do not want to see the indoor unit at all, there are even “concealed duct” or “slim duct” indoor units. These small, compact air handlers can be installed completely out of sight, such as above a closet ceiling or in a conditioned attic space. They then use short runs of small, flexible ductwork to deliver air to the room through discreet, conventional looking ceiling or floor vents. At Barney’s Heating and Air, we can discuss all these options with you to find the perfect style of indoor unit to match your Clarksville home’s decor and layout.

Mini splits require regular maintenance to keep them operating at peak efficiency, but much of the basic maintenance is very easy for a homeowner to perform. The most important task is cleaning the filters on the indoor units. Unlike central systems that have a single filter, each mini split indoor head has its own reusable filter. These filters are easily accessible by lifting the front panel of the unit. They should be removed, washed with water, allowed to dry completely, and then reinserted every four to six weeks. Keeping these filters clean is crucial for good airflow and high efficiency.

Beyond the filter cleaning that you can do yourself, it is highly recommended to have your mini split system professionally serviced by a qualified technician at least once a year. During a professional maintenance visit, our technician will perform a much deeper cleaning and inspection. We will thoroughly clean the indoor unit’s blower wheel and the delicate evaporator coil, which can accumulate dirt and grime that you cannot reach. We will also perform a deep cleaning of the outdoor condenser coil to ensure maximum heat transfer.

Our professional service also includes tasks that a homeowner cannot do. We will check and tighten all electrical connections, test the system’s capacitors, and inspect the condensate drain line to ensure it is clear and flowing properly. We will also check the system’s refrigerant charge to make sure it is at the correct level for optimal performance. This annual professional tune up, combined with your regular filter cleaning, will keep your mini split system running efficiently and reliably for many years.

No, modern ductless mini split systems are renowned for being exceptionally quiet. This is one of their most popular features. The indoor units, or heads, operate at a volume that is often described as whisper quiet. On their lowest fan setting, they are virtually silent, producing a sound level as low as 19 decibels, which is quieter than the rustling of leaves. This makes them an ideal choice for bedrooms, home offices, or any space where peace and quiet is a priority. You can enjoy comfortable temperatures without the distracting noise of a loud air conditioner.

The outdoor unit, or condenser, is also designed to be significantly quieter than a traditional central air conditioner condenser. The compressor, which is the main source of noise in any AC system, is housed in a sound insulated cabinet. The advanced inverter technology allows the compressor and fan to run at variable speeds, so they are often running at a much lower, quieter speed than a conventional unit that simply turns on and off at full blast. This makes a big difference in the amount of noise you and your neighbors will experience.

During the installation process, we also take steps to minimize any potential noise. We ensure the outdoor unit is placed on a solid, level pad that will not vibrate. We can also install vibration absorbing feet under the unit. We will work with you to select a location for the outdoor unit that is away from bedroom windows or outdoor living spaces to further ensure a quiet and peaceful home environment. The quiet operation of a mini split system is a major upgrade in comfort that our Clarksville customers consistently appreciate.

While it may be tempting to try and save money with a DIY mini split installation, it is strongly discouraged unless you are a licensed HVAC professional. Installing a mini split is a complex process that involves working with high voltage electricity and high pressure refrigerant, both of which can be extremely dangerous for an untrained individual. A mistake during the electrical wiring can create a serious fire hazard. An improper refrigerant connection can lead to a leak of high pressure gas, which can cause severe frostbite injuries.

Beyond the safety risks, a proper installation requires specialized and expensive tools that most homeowners do not own. These include a vacuum pump, a micron gauge, a set of refrigerant gauges, a flaring tool, and a torque wrench. For example, achieving a deep vacuum in the refrigerant lines is absolutely critical for the system’s efficiency and longevity. Without the right tools and knowledge, it is impossible to do this correctly. An improper installation will almost certainly lead to poor performance, high energy bills, and premature failure of the system.

Furthermore, virtually all manufacturer warranties are void if the system is not installed by a licensed HVAC contractor. This means if any part of your new system fails, even due to a manufacturing defect, you will be responsible for the full cost of the repair. The potential savings of a DIY installation are quickly wiped out by a single major repair bill. By hiring a professional team like Barney’s Heating and Air, you are ensuring a safe, efficient, and reliable installation that is backed by both our workmanship guarantee and the full manufacturer’s warranty.
