Why Placerville Homes Need Cold-Climate Mini-Splits
Placerville sits above the valley floor. Winter nights drop below 25 degrees F. Cold snaps push lower. A standard mini-split may stop heating below 20 degrees F. Cold-climate models keep running at -5 degrees F. We only spec rated units for foothill jobs like this.
Old Placerville has historic homes with no ductwork. Running ducts in them is often not practical. A ductless head mounts on the wall. It connects to the outdoor unit through a small hole. It is the right fit where ducts would damage old fabric.
