Ductless HVAC Systems Gain Ground Across the Pacific Northwest
This summer, temperatures in Seattle soared to 95°F, with the West Sound not far behind. For many homeowners without efficient air conditioning, the heat wasn’t just uncomfortable—it was unbearable.
That’s why more and more residents from Port Orchard to Port Townsend are turning to a smarter solution: ductless mini-split systems. These compact, energy-efficient units are quickly becoming the go-to choice for comfort and cost savings across the region.
Why Mini-Splits Are Ideal for West Sound Homes?
• No Ductwork? No Problem.
Many homes in the Pacific Northwest—especially in older neighborhoods—simply weren’t built with ductwork in mind. That’s where ductless mini-splits shine. These units mount directly onto the wall, allowing for fast, clean installations—often completed in just one day. No major renovations needed.
• All-in-One Heating & Cooling
Mini-splits do more than just cool your home. They also operate as high-efficiency heat pumps, providing warmth in the winter and cooling in the summer—all from one system.
• Lower Energy Bills with Smart Zone Control
Why waste energy heating or cooling rooms you’re not using? With mini-splits, you can control temperatures room by room, slashing your utility bills while maximizing comfort.
• Quiet, Reliable Comfort
Thanks to their whisper-quiet operation, mini-splits are perfect for bedrooms, nurseries, or home offices—anywhere you want peace and quiet alongside precise climate control.
Installations Are on the Rise
Homeowners are asking for better comfort, more control, and lower energy costs—and mini-splits check all those boxes. In the last two years, installations have surged across Kitsap, Pierce and King Counties.
Unlock Up to $2,000 in PSE Rebates
Now’s the perfect time to make the switch. With Puget Sound Energy (PSE) offering rebates of up to $2,000 on qualifying ductless mini-split installations, homeowners can enjoy big savings right from the start.
