When installing a ductless mini split system, placement is critical to performance and comfort. Avoid putting indoor units on interior walls, behind furniture, in direct sunlight, or near heat sources, since these locations restrict airflow and cause inaccurate temperature readings. Outdoor condensers should also be kept out of tight enclosures, away from heavy vegetation, and on a stable, shaded surface to ensure proper airflow and efficiency. Choosing the right installation spot will extend the life of your mini split and maximize energy savings.
