Is a Ductless Mini Split a Good Idea for Your Garage or Home Addition?

Monday, August 11th, 2025

When you’re transforming a space like a garage, basement, or home addition into a livable area, one of the biggest questions is: How do I keep it comfortable year-round? The answer is often simpler than you think—a ductless mini-split system. Compact, energy-efficient, and easy to install, these systems are tailor-made for rooms outside the reach of your main HVAC system, especially if your existing unit is nearing replacement as outlined in knowing when to replace your ac.

Why choose a ductless mini‑split heat pump for your garage or home addition?

It requires no ductwork — just a small conduit through the wall connects the indoor unit to the outdoor compressor, avoiding invasive construction.
You get zoned temperature control, so you can condition just the addition or garage without heating/cooling the whole house.
They are energy efficient: inverter technology keeps temperature steady, and there’s no loss from leaky ducts.
Most units are heat pumps, so they both heat and cool, making them useful year‑round in spaces not originally built for comfort.
Quiet operation and sleek, unobtrusive design make them a good choice for finished spaces like offices, guest rooms, or media areas.

Here’s why ductless mini-splits are such a smart solution for these types of spaces.

Dehumidification: The Key to Staying Comfortable in July’s Humidity

Monday, July 28th, 2025

July in Florida is infamous for two things: soaring temperatures and relentless humidity. While the Sunshine State boasts beautiful beaches and vibrant outdoor life, summer weather can quickly turn indoor environments into sticky, uncomfortable spaces. Air conditioners help cool the air, but they often fall short in controlling moisture levels. Not only that, but high humidity can wear down your air conditioner and cause issues.

That’s where a dehumidifier becomes an essential part of your home comfort system.

4 Consequences of Poor IAQ in Naples, FL

Monday, September 18th, 2023

Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) often manifests as excessive airborne dust, unexplained flu-like symptoms, or a decrease in your indoor comfort level. It’s best to improve your air quality fast before it leaves a lasting impact on your home. Here are a few of the most common consequences of dealing with unhealthy air quality in Naples, FL.

1. Increased Energy Costs

The more contaminants in the air, the faster your air filters become dirty. If your filter gets clogged, it makes it harder for the HVAC system to pull in enough air. This can increase your energy bills and lead to a lack of HVAC efficiency.

2. Frequent HVAC Issues

While your filter can easily collect larger debris from the air, other small contaminants can still accumulate on critical components of your HVAC system. Grime could begin to coat your motors, compressor, fan blades, and lining of your ductwork. In addition to increasing your need for HVAC maintenance and repairs, you may eventually have to deal with a premature replacement.

3. Household Health Concerns

People spend the majority of their time indoors, and poor air quality can wreak havoc on your health and energy. Inhaling pollutants like pollen, dander, and organic growth can worsen allergies and cause headaches, fatigue, sinus irritation, and skin rashes. Long-term exposure may even lead to developing respiratory or heart conditions.

4. Excessive Indoor Moisture

Another key factor in poor air quality is your humidity. The average home should have a moisture level between 30% and 60%. Excessively high humidity levels can result in organic growth and pest infestations.

These issues can contribute to worsening health issues and damage your home’s structural security. You may find your wooden floors splintering or your wallpaper coming loose in this situation.

Don’t let poor IAQ negatively impact your family’s health and comfort. Contact Conditioned Air to learn more or to schedule indoor air quality services in Naples, FL.

Not Just Our Hero

Thursday, May 23rd, 2019

“Last Friday in the Strand my husband and I witnessed an accident where a driver lost control and went across the median into the brush. Your driver pulled over and immediately ran to the car to help. Seeing that there was smoke coming from the engine block area and smoke was filling the interior, he immediately ran back to your van and ran back with a fire extinguisher. He put out the fire (looked like it was coming from the brush beneath the vehicle. My husband and he attempted to get into the vehicle and finally succeeded. Your employee was on the phone with 911 and they cut the air bags and talked to the man (greatly injured and bleeding, until emergency personnel arrived. Your employee showed great bravery and reaction time as well as the ability to make a quick decision which may well have saved the injured man’s life. He is a hero in my eyes”
