Goldwater Plumbing provides expert installation and service of commercial mini splits / ductless systems for businesses, developers, and contractors. We deliver efficient, flexible climate control solutions tailored to the unique demands of commercial spaces.
What Are Commercial Mini Splits / Ductless Systems?
A mini split, also known as a ductless system, is a highly efficient heating and cooling solution that does not require traditional air ducts. These systems consist of two main components: an outdoor compressor/condenser unit and one or more indoor air-handling units. The indoor and outdoor units are connected by a small conduit containing power cables and refrigerant lines. This design allows for targeted temperature control in specific zones or rooms, offering a flexible and scalable alternative to centralized HVAC systems.
Who Benefits from Ductless Climate Control?
Mini splits / ductless systems are an ideal solution for a wide range of commercial applications. They provide significant value for properties where traditional ductwork is impractical, inefficient, or too costly to install.
Common use cases include:
- Office Buildings: Create customized comfort zones for individual offices, conference rooms, or server rooms that have unique cooling requirements.
- Retail Spaces: Ensure consistent temperatures in customer-facing areas and back-of-house storage without major renovations.
- Restaurants and Hospitality: Manage different temperature needs between dining areas, kitchens, and guest rooms.
- Healthcare Facilities: Provide precise climate control for patient rooms, waiting areas, and labs where air quality and temperature are critical.
- Historic Buildings: Preserve architectural integrity by avoiding the installation of bulky ductwork.
- New Additions or Renovated Spaces: Extend heating and cooling to new areas without connecting to an existing central HVAC system.

Why Proper Planning and Installation Matters
The performance and longevity of a commercial mini split / ductless system depend entirely on the quality of its design and installation. Improper sizing, poor unit placement, or incorrect installation can lead to significant problems, including inefficient operation, higher energy bills, inadequate heating or cooling, and premature equipment failure.
A professional approach is crucial for designing and implementing a multi-zone system. It ensures that every component, from the central unit to the individual zone controls, is carefully selected and installed according to the manufacturer’s precise specifications and current industry best practices. This meticulous attention to detail guarantees not just functionality but also balanced and reliable performance across all zones, preventing issues like uneven output or system strain. Furthermore, a professional installation maximizes energy efficiency by optimizing the system’s operation, which translates to lower utility bills. Ultimately, this expertise protects your investment by ensuring the system’s longevity and preventing costly repairs down the line.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are mini splits / ductless systems energy efficient?
Yes, ductless systems are extremely energy efficient. By eliminating the energy loss associated with ductwork, which can account for more than 30% of energy consumption, they deliver conditioned air directly to the intended space. Many models are also ENERGY STAR® certified.
How many indoor units can one outdoor unit support?
A single outdoor unit can typically support up to eight indoor units, depending on the model and system capacity. This allows for the creation of multiple independent temperature zones within a commercial building.
What kind of maintenance do ductless systems require?
Ductless systems require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance. This includes cleaning the indoor unit’s filters monthly and having a professional technician inspect the system annually. Professional service includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning the coils, and inspecting electrical components.
