Ductless Installers
Beat the Arlington summer heat and winter freezes with high-efficiency ductless cooling and heating. Local Tarrant County experts, guaranteed quality.
Arlington Climate & Heat Load Sizing
Arlington sits squarely in the North Texas heat zone, where summer temperatures frequently exceed 100°F and humidity levels from the nearby Trinity River basin can make it feel even hotter. This means your HVAC system must be capable of aggressive sensible cooling and robust dehumidification.
When sizing a ductless mini split for an Arlington home, our technicians perform precise load calculations considering your home's sun exposure, insulation, and window efficiency. Properly sized inverter-driven mini splits handle the intense August heat and ramp down for quiet, efficient operation during milder spring and fall days, saving you money on your electric bill.
Cooling Arlington's Unique Housing Stock
Arlington's housing stock is incredibly diverse. In Central and East Arlington near UTA, you'll find older 1950s and 1960s homes that often lack the space for extensive central ductwork. For these properties, ductless mini splits offer a way to add modern AC without tearing out ceilings or destroying original architectural charm.
In South Arlington and newer developments like Viridian, large 1990s and 2000s tract homes dominate. These homes usually have central air, but frequently suffer from hot spots—especially in bonus rooms over garages, vaulted living rooms, or home offices. A single-zone mini split is the perfect solution to cool these specific problem areas without overworking your main central AC unit. We also specialize in whole-home replacements and sunrooms. Review our pricing guide for estimates, and read our 2026 Cost Guide or Mini Split vs. Central AC guide.
Oncor Rebates for Arlington Homeowners
Arlington falls within the Oncor electric delivery territory. Through the Oncor "Take A Load Off Texas" program, residents can qualify for significant utility incentives when upgrading to high-efficiency heat pumps, potentially saving up to $3,000 on qualifying systems.
To access these rebates, your new ductless mini split must meet strict SEER2 efficiency ratings and be installed by an approved participating service provider. Our network of vetted Arlington installers handles the complex rebate paperwork, ensuring you get the maximum financial return on your HVAC investment.
Arlington Permitting & Code Compliance
The City of Arlington Planning and Development Services department requires a mechanical permit for the permanent installation of any HVAC system, including ductless mini splits. Residential mechanical permits in Arlington typically cost between $100 and $150, depending on the job's valuation and electrical requirements.
Our partnered contractors are fully licensed with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). They will pull all necessary permits, ensuring that electrical runs and refrigerant lines meet Arlington's strict building codes. Unpermitted DIY installations can result in fines and voided equipment warranties.

We love our mini splits, as of now we have 4 in our home and 2 more in mobile homes that we rent. Been 2 years on the oldest one and no problems from any of them. Great people to do business with in every way. (CHEAP ON ELECTRIC BILL)
