Frequently Asked Questions
- <p>Yes. Modern ductless mini-splits are designed to operate efficiently in cold climates, with many models heating effectively at temperatures well below zero. Systems from manufacturers like Mitsubishi are rated to operate down to -13 degrees Fahrenheit, making them well-suited for Central Ohio winters.</p>
- <p>The main considerations are aesthetics, since indoor wall units are visible in each room, and the fact that whole-home coverage requires multiple indoor units. Filters also need cleaning every four to six weeks. That said, for many homes the flexibility, efficiency, and zone control outweigh these tradeoffs.</p>
- <p>The number of zones depends on how many rooms you want to independently heat and cool, your home layout, and whether the mini-split is supplementing an existing system or serving as whole-home comfort. A single-zone system works well for an addition or problem room, while multi-zone systems can cover an entire home. Our team will assess your space and recommend the right configuration.</p>
- <p>In many cases, yes. A multi-zone ductless system can provide whole-home heating and cooling without ductwork. Whether it makes sense for your home depends on the size, layout, and whether you already have functional ductwork. For some homeowners a mini-split works best as a supplement to an existing central system rather than a full replacement.</p>
- <p>Mini-splits require regular filter cleaning every four to six weeks, keeping the outdoor unit clear of debris, and annual professional maintenance to check refrigerant levels, electrical connections, and overall system health. Consistent maintenance helps the system run efficiently and extends its lifespan.</p>
- <p>With proper maintenance, a ductless mini-split typically lasts 15 to 20 years, which is comparable to or better than a traditional central HVAC system. Regular filter cleaning and annual professional service are the biggest factors in reaching the upper end of that range.</p>
- <p>A single-zone mini-split installation is typically completed in one day. Multi-zone installations may take one to two days depending on the number of indoor units and the complexity of the refrigerant line routing. Installation only requires a small hole in the exterior wall for the line set, so disruption to your home is minimal compared to installing ductwork.</p>

From start to finish the process was very simple. Our comfort consultant Rodger was great. He helped us understand the flaws in our old HVAC system and helped us choose the right product to replace it with. Our installers arrived not only ahead of the original time but also did a great job in getting everything installed right and were able to get things done ahead of the original finish time. It was a true pleasureto have them in our home. We look forward to doing business with Fire & Ice in the future.

Jimmy was awesome! He got stuck at the nearby train tracks and was afraid he would be late so he proactively called to tell me. My little yappy dogs were horrible and he wasn’t even phased. He squatted down to pet them and they were best friends by the time he left. On top of that I knew he was going to tell us that we needed a new unit, but I appreciated that he explained why to me and did ask to just speak to my husband. That respect as a woman is everything! Highly recommended!

Fire & Ice did a great job replacing the blower motor on my dad's furnace. Of coursethe motor decided to quit during the first hot spell which is a very busy time for all heating and A/C companies. We were able to get someone to come out the same day we called and diagnose the problem. They confirmed that they had the part andcould replace it in about a week. Everyone we dealt with at the company was very pleasant and knowledgeable.

Davon was very professional and personable. My service was going to be $230 but he told me about the monthly $25 service contract and what it included and it was ano brainer, my service visit only cost me $25 instead of $230. Shoot....he's like family now...lol

James was very professional and thorough; we’ve had a very positive experience with Fire and Ice thus far- from installing the AC/Furnace and maintaining them.
