Do mini-splits work in winter?

Yes. Cold-climate models heat well below freezing.

Ductless Mini-Splits in Windsor, ON

An outdoor unit connects to wall-mounted indoor heads through a small line set. Each head has its own controls.

Heritage homes in areas like Walkerville often have radiators and no ducts. Mini-splits add cooling without opening walls.

Rooms added later, or sunrooms with lots of glass, often run too hot or cold. A head in that room fixes it.

Finished basements and suites can have their own head and controls.

Mini-splits are heat pumps, so they heat as well as cool.

Indoor heads go high on a wall; outdoor units need a solid base above snow.

Lines can be routed through closets or along the outside to protect trim.

Wash indoor filters every few weeks in summer.

Tell the technician which rooms need help. Send a request and an HVAC technician will get in touch.

Indoor heads run quietly, which suits bedrooms and home offices where a window unit would be too loud.

A mini-split can make a garage or workshop usable year-round without running ducts from the house.

Place outdoor units where snow sliding off the roof won't land on them, and keep the base clear in winter.

If airflow drops or a musty smell appears, have the indoor coil and blower wheel cleaned. Humid summers make this more common.
