Mini split systems are becoming one of the fastest growing solutions for heating and cooling in New England homes. Homeowners are tired of bulky window units, rising oil costs, and systems that don’t deliver comfort efficiently. At KMG Mechanical, we install Samsung high efficiency mini splits that give our customers year-round comfort while lowering energy bills.

What Is a Mini Split?

A mini split is a ductless heating and cooling system that uses an outdoor condenser and one or more indoor air handlers. Instead of relying on traditional ductwork, the indoor units deliver conditioned air directly into the rooms where you need it most.

Key Benefits of Mini Splits

1. Heating & Cooling in One

Mini splits provide both heat and air conditioning, making them a year round comfort solution for New Hampshire and Southern Maine homeowners.

2. Lower Energy Bills

Mini splits use advanced inverter technology, so they adjust output automatically instead of turning on and off. This efficiency means lower energy consumption and reduced monthly bills compared to oil, propane, or electric baseboard.

3. Room by Room Comfort

Each indoor unit is individually controlled. That means you can keep bedrooms cooler at night while maintaining a comfortable temperature in your living room without wasting energy on unoccupied spaces.

4. Rebates & Tax Credits

Right now, homeowners can take advantage of generous rebates and tax credits:

  • Federal Tax Credit: 30% of project cost up to $2,000

  • NH Saves Rebates: $250 per ton of cooling. These incentives make upgrading more affordable than ever.

5. Whisper-Quiet Operation

Unlike traditional systems that roar to life, mini splits run almost silently perfect for bedrooms, home offices, and living spaces.

Why Homeowners Choose Mini Splits Over Oil or Propane

Oil and propane costs continue to rise, and homeowners are looking for long term solutions. Mini splits protect you from fuel price spikes and let you heat with electricity, which is becoming more affordable with renewable energy growth in New England.

Is a Mini Split Right for Your Home?

Mini splits are a great fit for:

  • Homes without existing ductwork

  • Older homes that need efficient upgrades

  • Additions, basements, or sunrooms that are hard to heat or cool

  • Anyone looking to lower heating oil dependency

Ready to Make the Switch?

If you’ve been considering upgrading your home comfort system, now is the perfect time. Mini splits offer efficiency, flexibility, and rebates that can save you thousands.
