You know the drill. Your living room feels like an icebox while your bedroom stays stuffy and hot. Your energy bills keep climbing because your old system works overtime trying to cool spaces it can’t reach properly.
Ductless air conditioning changes that. Each room gets its own temperature control. No more cranking the thermostat down just to make one room comfortable. No more wasted energy cooling empty spaces.
The result? Consistent comfort where you actually spend time, and energy bills that don’t make you wince every month.
We’ve been solving North Fair Oaks cooling problems since 1985. When Ramiro’s father started this company, most homes in the area were built in the 1960s without central air. We’ve been helping families find smart cooling solutions ever since.
Ramiro took over in 2006 and kept the same commitment to quality work and fair pricing. Our technicians aren’t the revolving door types—they’re experienced professionals who understand both the technology and what works in North Fair Oaks homes.
We know this community. We know the older homes that need creative solutions and the newer additions that need targeted cooling. Most importantly, we know you want straight answers, not sales pitches.
We start with a home assessment to understand your cooling challenges and layout. No cookie-cutter solutions—every home is different, especially in North Fair Oaks where you’ve got everything from 1960s ranch homes to newer additions.
Installation typically takes one day. We mount the indoor unit on your wall, place the outdoor unit in the best location for efficiency, and connect them through a small hole in the wall. That’s it. No tearing up walls, no major construction, no weeks of disruption.
After installation, we test everything to make sure each zone cools properly and walk you through the controls. You’ll have cool air the same day we start, not weeks later after extensive ductwork projects.

North Fair Oaks homes present unique cooling challenges. Many properties were built in the 1960s before central air was standard. Room additions are common, but extending ductwork gets expensive fast. Multi-story layouts create hot and cold spots that traditional systems struggle with.
Ductless systems solve these problems efficiently. Single-zone units work perfectly for room additions, converted garages, or that one bedroom that’s always too hot. Multi-zone systems can cool your entire home with individual controls for each area.
The technology handles North Fair Oaks’ climate well. During those scorching summer days when temperatures spike, you get consistent cooling without the energy waste of oversized central systems. During mild weather, you only cool the rooms you’re using.
Installation costs vary based on the number of zones and your home’s layout, but most single-zone systems run $3,000-$5,000 installed, while multi-zone systems typically range $6,000-$12,000. The good news is ductless systems often cost significantly less than installing central air with ductwork, especially in older North Fair Oaks homes where adding ducts means major construction.
We provide upfront pricing after assessing your specific needs. Many homeowners find the energy savings help offset the initial investment within a few years, and you’ll often qualify for utility rebates that reduce the upfront cost.
Absolutely, when properly sized and configured. Multi-zone ductless systems can handle whole-home cooling, even in larger North Fair Oaks properties. The key is proper planning and placement of indoor units to ensure good air circulation throughout each area.
We assess your home’s layout, insulation, and cooling load to determine the right system size and configuration. Many of our customers with 1,500-2,500 square foot homes use 2-4 zone systems to achieve consistent comfort throughout their property. Each zone operates independently, so you get precise control over every area.
Ductless systems are typically 20-30% more efficient than traditional central air systems. The main reason is elimination of duct losses—central systems can lose up to 30% of cooled air through leaky or poorly insulated ductwork. Ductless systems deliver conditioned air directly into each room.
The variable-speed technology in modern ductless systems also contributes to efficiency. Instead of cycling on and off like traditional systems, they adjust output to match cooling demand. This means lower energy bills and more consistent temperatures, which is especially valuable during North Fair Oaks’ hot summer months.
Yes, modern ductless systems are designed to handle extreme heat effectively. Quality systems maintain full cooling capacity even when outdoor temperatures reach 115°F, which covers the hottest days North Fair Oaks experiences. The key is proper sizing and installation.
We size systems based on your home’s cooling load, not just square footage. Factors like insulation, window placement, and sun exposure all matter. A properly sized ductless system will keep you comfortable even during heat waves, often more consistently than oversized central systems that cycle on and off frequently.
Most installations complete in one day, though larger multi-zone systems might take two days. The process is much faster than central air installation because we don’t need to install ductwork or make major modifications to your home.
For a typical single-zone installation, we arrive in the morning, mount the indoor unit, install the outdoor unit, connect the refrigerant lines through a small wall hole, and test everything. You’ll have cool air by afternoon. Multi-zone systems take longer because of additional indoor units, but even a whole-home system usually completes within 1-2 days.
Ductless systems actually require less maintenance than traditional central air systems. The main tasks are cleaning or replacing filters monthly and keeping the outdoor unit clear of debris. The filters are easily accessible on the indoor units—no crawling into attics or basements.
We recommend annual professional maintenance to clean coils, check refrigerant levels, and ensure optimal performance. This is simpler than central system maintenance because there’s no ductwork to clean or inspect. Most of our North Fair Oaks customers find the maintenance requirements much more manageable than their previous systems.
