Common Ductless Mini Split Problems
Ductless mini splits can experience various issues, and troubleshooting them often requires system knowledge. Here are some common problems they face and solutions you can try before calling:
Refrigerant
Leaks
This can lead to insufficient cooling/heating and may require professional repair to fix the leak and recharge the refrigerant.
Compressor
Issues
Problems with the compressor can result in inadequate cooling or heating, noisy operation, or failure to start.
Electrical
Problems
Issues such as faulty wiring, blown fuses, or tripped circuit breakers can cause the system to malfunction.
Sensor
Problems
Faulty sensors can lead to improper operation of the system, such as turning on and off at inappropriate times or failing to maintain the desired temperature.
Poor
Drainage
Clogged or blocked condensate drains can cause water leakage or overflow, potentially damaging surrounding areas.
Fan
Problems
Issues with the indoor or outdoor fans can result in poor airflow, reduced efficiency, or noisy operation.
Dirty
Filters
Dirty or clogged filters can restrict airflow, reduce efficiency, and affect indoor air quality.
Frozen
Coils
This can occur due to issues such as dirty coils, low refrigerant levels, or airflow problems, leading to reduced cooling capacity.

Ductless Mini Split Installation
How to Tell When It's Time to Upgrade
Upgrading your office HVAC to a ductless mini split system can offer several benefits for commercial properties, depending on their specific needs and circumstances:
Flexible Installation Options: Ductless mini splits are easier to install compared to traditional ducted systems. They require minimal disruption to the building structure since they only require a small hole for connecting the indoor and outdoor units. This can be advantageous for retrofitting older buildings or adding HVAC to new additions.
Zone Control and Energy Efficiency: Ductless mini splits allow for individual control of each indoor unit, which means different areas or zones of the building can be cooled or heated independently. This zoning capability can lead to energy savings by only conditioning spaces that are in use, rather than the entire building.
Improved Indoor Air Quality: Ductless systems typically have advanced filtration systems that can improve indoor air quality by capturing dust, allergens, and other particles. This can be particularly beneficial for commercial spaces where air quality is crucial, such as offices, healthcare facilities, or retail environments.
Quiet Operation: Ductless mini splits tend to operate more quietly than traditional HVAC systems, which can create a more comfortable and productive environment for occupants.
Cost Savings: While the upfront cost of installing ductless mini splits can be higher than traditional systems, they often provide long-term savings through reduced energy consumption and lower maintenance costs. Additionally, the flexibility of zoning can contribute to operational cost savings.
Space Savings: Since ductless mini splits do not require ductwork, they can save valuable space in buildings where space is at a premium. This is helpful for older buildings or maximizing usable floor space.
Improved Aesthetic Appeal: Ductless systems have sleek and modern indoor units that can blend into various commercial environments without compromising aesthetics. The aesthetics of ductless mini splits also make them a popular installation option for residential properties as well.
The decision to switch to a ductless mini split system should consider factors such as the size and layout of the commercial property, existing infrastructure, budget considerations, and specific heating and cooling requirements. Give Aire Serv a call today, and we can help determine if a ductless mini split system is the right fit for a particular commercial property and ensure that installation and operation meet the property’s needs effectively.
Ductless Mini Split Maintenance
Maintaining a ductless mini split for commercial properties is crucial to maximize performance, efficiency, and longevity. For comprehensive maintenance, Aire Serv recommends the following:
- Regular Air Filter Maintenance: Clean or replace air filters in each indoor unit every 1-3 months, adjusting based on usage and indoor air quality. This practice promotes optimal airflow and prevents buildup of dust and debris on the coils.
- Cleaning of Indoor and Outdoor Units: Regularly wipe down indoor units with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and dirt. Ensure outdoor units are free from debris like leaves or branches to maintain unobstructed airflow.
- Coil Inspection and Cleaning: Periodically check indoor and outdoor coils for dirt or debris accumulation. Use a soft brush or vacuum with a brush attachment to gently clean if necessary, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage the fins.
- Condensate Drain Line Maintenance: Keep the condensate drain line clear of obstructions to prevent water damage and mold growth. Use a wet/dry vacuum or brush to remove any clogs that may impede proper drainage.
- Refrigerant Line Inspection: Regularly inspect refrigerant lines for damage or leaks. Contact Aire Serv if issues are detected to prevent potential system inefficiencies.
- Electrical Connection Check: Ensure all electrical connections are secure to prevent electrical issues or system malfunctions that could disrupt operations.
- Thermostat and Control Verification: Verify proper operation of thermostats or remote controls, replacing batteries as needed to maintain accurate temperature control.
- Professional Maintenance Services: Schedule annual or bi-annual maintenance with Aire Serv, and we can conduct thorough inspections, clean specialized components, and ensure peak system efficiency.
- Performance Monitoring: Regularly monitor system performance for any unusual noises, temperature fluctuations, or changes in energy consumption that may indicate underlying issues.
By adhering to these maintenance practices, you can extend the lifespan of your workplace’s ductless mini split, ensuring reliable and efficient heating and cooling operations for years to come.
