Mini-splits in Mount Vernon homes
Mount Vernon is a city just north of the Bronx. Between 1880 and 1940, farmland and estates were subdivided into houses and apartments, and the North Side includes neighborhoods such as Fleetwood.
Much of the housing is older and lacks ductwork. Mini-splits suit both houses and apartments where window units have been the norm.
When you send a request from Mount Vernon, we pass it to a local HVAC contractor who installs ductless systems in your area. The contractor reaches out, looks at the rooms, the electrical panel and the outdoor space, and gives you a written proposal. Asking is free and there is no obligation.
Before you hire, ask for the contractor's Westchester County home improvement license number and proof of insurance, confirm that technicians handling refrigerant are EPA Section 608 certified, and ask who will pull any permits. The NYS Clean Heat program, offered through utilities including Con Edison, may offer incentives on qualifying systems, so ask the contractor for a written incentive estimate.
Use the estimate form to list the rooms you want heated or cooled, how the house is heated now and anything you know about the electrical service. Clear details help the contractor size the system and give you an accurate price.
It also helps to mention the age of the house, whether it has plaster walls, and which rooms run hottest in summer or coldest in winter. If you rent or live in a condo or co-op, check with your landlord or board about where an outdoor unit may go before the contractor visits.
