Our homeowner Charles, resident of Dresher, Pa., contacted us about an exciting project to convert their garage into a golf simulator room! Although we've installed ductless systems in garages before, this was a unique and exciting project for us! The problem with garages is that they can get pretty uncomfortable depending on the season -- too hot in the summer, and way too cold in the winter. Recognizing the need for optimal temperature control in this new space, Charles researched Mitsubishi Electric Ductless units. With ECI's help, we were able to install a Mitsubishi Electric Ductless Hyper-Heat System with an MHK2 thermostat.

"I purchased/installed a Mitsubishi Mini-Split from ECI Comfort and was very much impressed with the entire customer service experience. Brian Brady was an awesome ECI Representative as well as Jim and Nick who did the installation in less than a day!"
Initial Conversations
One of our comfort specialists, Brian, went out to investigate their garage. As a golf enthusiast himself, this was a fun job for him to be on! Transforming garages into living spaces is getting more and more popular these days. Brian worked with our homeowner to choose the Mitsubishi Electric Hyper-Heat System to ensure comfortable and consistent temperatures year-round in his garage. Not only would a traditional HVAC system require a more invasive installation, but it would also struggle to adequately regulate temperature due to insufficient insulation and ductwork limitations. Another positive to installing a Mitsubishi Electric Heating and Cooling System is the cost savings on their energy bills!
Converting Your Garage to a Living Space With Mitsubishi Electric
Garages are typically under-insulated and lack the same climate control features as the rest of your home. During hot summers, garages can become sweltering ovens, making it unbearable to spend time working on projects or even access your car. Conversely, in the winter, frigid temperatures make the garage an inhospitable environment.
This is where ductless mini-splits shine. They offer an efficient and effective solution to keep your garage or additional rooms comfortable year-round.

Benefits of the Mitsubishi Electric Hyper-Heat Heat Pump and Mini-Split
Precise temperature control
The inverter-driven compressor works to continuously adjust the compressor speed to match the heating or cooling demand. This fine-tuning capability ensures that the system delivers the exact amount of heating or cooling needed to maintain the set temperature, avoiding temperature fluctuations and providing precise control.
Efficient heating and cooling
The hyper-heat technology employed by Mitsubishi Electric systems enables efficient heating and cooling even in extreme temperatures, making it ideal for Pennsylvania's climate. Using cutting-edge inverter technology, these systems seamlessly adapt the compressor speed based on the heating or cooling needs. This feature ensures that only the necessary energy is consumed to uphold your preferred temperature, ultimately resulting in reduced energy costs when compared to conventional HVAC systems.
Easy installation
Unlike traditional HVAC systems that rely on extensive ductwork, ductless systems are relatively easy to install, making them well-suited for retrofitting existing spaces like garages. The compact size of the indoor units allows for flexible placement, maximizing space utilization in the converted room.
Quiet operation
Nobody enjoys a loud HVAC system disrupting their tranquility (or golf game). Mitsubishi Electric mini-splits are crafted with noise mitigation in mind. The indoor units operate silently, enabling you to focus on your activities without any background noise.

Advanced controls
The inclusion of an MHK2 thermostat allows the homeowners to effortlessly control the temperature and settings of the ductless system from the convenience of their smartphone or tablet. This intuitive interface enhances user experience and ensures optimal comfort at all times.
Money saving energy-efficiency rebates
By installing a Mitsubishi Electric Hyper-Heat Heat Pump system, homeowners can unlock valuable energy efficiency rebates. Various local, state, and federal entities, along with utility companies, extend financial incentives to promote the adoption of energy-efficient heating and cooling solutions. These rebates serve as a significant offset to the upfront costs associated with transitioning to heat pumps, making the upgrade even more enticing. ECI also offers military/first responder and senior citizen discounts as well as financing as low as 0% APR for 48 months!
Conclusion
With the installation of the Mitsubishi ductless hyper heat system, Charles successfully transformed their garage into a golf simulator room while ensuring year-round comfort. The precise zoning capabilities, energy-efficient performance, and advanced controls provided by the ductless system exceeded their expectations, allowing them to enjoy their new space without compromise.
For anyone thinking about transforming their comfort in their garage or additional rooms, Charles' story shows how perfect his golf game will be with his new Hyper Heat mini-split system that will keep him comfortable every day of the year!
