Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Splits Improve Year-Round Comfort for Langhorne Homeowners

PROBLEM: Our neighborhood homeowners, Joe & Sandy, have spent many years in their home without central AC. After relying on fans and two through-the-wall AC units, they finally gave up. As summers keep getting hotter, a change needed to be made!

SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed two Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Split systems, one for the left side of the house and one for the right side. This will finally provide Joe & Sandy with the comfort they deserve!

Single Family Home Langhorne, PA

Joe and Sandy, long-time residents of Langhorne, have lived comfortably in their home for decades. During COVID, they started remote work. During this time period, they noticed how uncomfortable their current HVAC system was. Before, their office jobs kept them away during the day, and their through-the-wall AC units in the dining room and bedroom sufficed. But with remote work now a permanent part of their lives, their home comfort needs drastically changed.

Their split-level home features a kitchen and dining area, two bathrooms, and two bedrooms on the upper level, while the lower level has a living room, two offices, and a garage. Unfortunately, only two rooms had air conditioning—one AC unit in the dining area and one in the master bedroom. This left most of the house, especially the offices, without adequate cooling. The lack of AC in their home offices became unbearable as summer temperatures soared, forcing them to rely on a single fan to distribute air—a temporary solution that just wasn't cutting it.

Before we dive into how our Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Splits transformed Joe and Sandy’s home, here’s what they had to say:

"The work done was amazing. The installation techs Mike and Tom were fast, efficient, spot on time, courteous, and cleaned up every day on the job. These guys were amazing and installed 6 units in just under 3 days. My salesman Joe answered every question I had and adjusted my quote as needed. Everyone I dealt with was incredibly professional, and I have nothing but great things to say about this experience. Thanks!!"

Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Splits: The Perfect Comfort Solution

After an initial consultation, we explored various HVAC options, from traditional ducted systems to mini-splits. Ultimately, Joe and Sandy chose Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Splits, thanks to their zoned control, supplemental heating, and the flexibility to split the system into two separate zones.

The left side of the house now features mini-splits in the lower-level living room and upper-level dining area, while the right side houses units in both offices and the two bedrooms. This split-system design improved efficiency and allowed for a cleaner installation process, delivering superior comfort throughout the entire home.

Installation Process

Before installation began, our comfort specialist Joe met with our Install Manager Steve for a pre-installation walkthrough in the Langhorne home. This allowed us to review the project, design a plan, and finalize details like unit locations and installation timelines.

Together, we decided on six indoor unit locations and two outdoor unit locations. Steve suggested using a low-wall mount unit in the lower-level living room for better aesthetics—an idea Joe and Sandy loved.

The installation, completed in just four days, was carefully coordinated to ensure Joe and Sandy could continue working from home during the process. We started by installing the two-zone system on the left side of the house, including the high-wall unit in the dining area and the low-wall unit in the living room. Then, we installed units in both offices, followed by the two upper-level bedrooms.

The sleek design of the Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Splits allows them to blend seamlessly into any room. One of the best comparisons is the difference between their old through-the-wall unit and the modern, minimal design of the mini-split. The transformation is striking, with much-improved comfort and aesthetics.

Joe and Sandy’s Final Thoughts

On the final day of installation, our specialist Joe checked in with both the crew and the homeowners. Joe and Sandy were thrilled with the results and expressed their gratitude for the team’s hard work. They were especially impressed with how efficiently Mike and Tom completed the project, mentioning how quiet and professional they were throughout the process.

Joe and Sandy now enjoy year-round comfort in every room, from their home offices to their bedrooms.
