Anyone know anything about mini-splits
#1
That's not a euphemism; looking at a place that has mini-splits instead of a traditional central unit

Haven't ever considered it until this unit (condo) became available; reading about the pros and cons online, but I thought I'd ask the experts for the truth

My son who was an installer for a heat & air company for several years said they work well, but are not as good as a regular central unit for resale value.

Agree with Roga. Wife is a RE Agent. Lot of folks think mini splits are trashy. Like upgraded window unit.
That said, I do know they work pretty well.

Only experience I have with them is through work.  Working in IT, a lot of times some older buildings have closet repurposed for IT which need to be cooled.  A lot of them have had mini-splits in them as it's the easiest option to add cooling to a space that wasn't really designed for it.  They have all worked pretty well IMO. 

I have attic space that I may finish one day and turn into a bonus room/office.  If I ever do, a mini-split is what I'd go with in there as it would most likely be the best and an least expensive option for the space.

I have a cabin that did not have attic space or crawl space underneath to put duct work. I installed a unit in the main area along with units in-the bedrooms and in the sunroom ( 4 total) I have been very pleased. Each unit has it’s own remote so you can control the temp in each room individually. I really like this system. I have had it for 7 years with no issues.

At a minimum, I would have them inspected by a certified tech. Some of these systems are designed to be DIY and DIYers can screw some stuff up.
