Better Technology, Better Results
Do Mini Split Heat Pumps Work in Wisconsin?
YES! When used correctly and for the right applications, mini splits and heat pump technology is incredibly efficient and very usable, even in Waukesha, Milwaukee and Southeastern Wisconsin’s climate.
Many people believe that Wisconsin’s climate is too cold for heat pump technology to work efficiently. And while this may have been true 10 years ago, a lot has changed recently. New equipment is capable of operating at temperatures much lower than older designs.
Heat Pump technology has a lot of uses, even in our colder northern climate. Most notably, point-source applications – like…you’re finishing new areas of into living space, and don’t have proper heating and cooling ductwork from your main furnace and air conditioning system. Or, you have an upstairs that you just cannot get warm in the winter or cool in the summer. Or you want to heat areas without a way to get ductwork to them, and don’t have natural gas lines in that part of your house, or don’t want to cut a hole in your roof to vent a combustion gas-fired heating unit.
Older homes and remodels are by far the most common cases where heat pumps and mini-splits are best suited.
