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>

The team from Fire & Ice replaced our heating and air conditioning system in our nearly impossibly small furnace room (I feared they would have to remove our hot water tank and move the washer & dryer to get access to the furnace unit) and the outside was also a task because it required a crane to get the A/C unit on the roof of our condo. The team of pros from Fire & Ice were able to accomplish all of these unusual tasks and kept me fully informed on what was needed for them to get our units replaced. We highly recommend Fire & Ice.

Fire an Ice installed my furnace two years ago so I decided to use them to install my new a/c. Bryan did a great job reviewing all my options and working to get the financing that worked for me. He was also very patient with me and answered all my questions. Demetrius and Will did an amazing job! Considering all the work they did, they were done in four hours. I’m very pleased and would recommend Fire and Ice to anyone needing HVAC services

The sales experience with Luke was great. The installation team of Demetrius, Tyler and Hassan was fantastic. They were on time, were very thorough and did a great job. They take pride in their work and it shows with the final product. They were very respectful, cleaned up and it was a pleasure having them in our house. I highly recommend all these employees and this company. The company is fortunate to have them.

Brandon was the one who installed our new furnace. He was punctual and very professional. Our new furnace is working great and couldn’t be happier with how it looks. Bryan the sales rep was very informational without being pushy and helped us make the best decision for our house. I recommend anyone who needs a new Hvac unit to call fire and ice.

We had 2 AC systems relocated and replaced. Roger (our sales contact), spent most of the day with us calculating the load and measuring the house to ensure proper equipment sizing. Roger was very responsive in helping select a proper and sound location to install the new systems. He came out 3 times to answer questions and inspect the retaining wall/pad. On the day of install, Bryan, Nick and Luke were on time and very respectful of the home. They worked tirelessly the entire day (8am - 6pm) removing the old evaporator(s) and installing the new compressors. Everything was done neatly both inside and out. I would highly recommend their service to anyone considering a new system(s). We just followed up with a pair of new furnaces. Fast scheduling and efficient installation. Luke and Brandon protected the floor and cleaned up after the install.

I had a positive experience with Fire and Ice in the past and my AC installation was even better. Brandon and DQ were very professional. Not only was the install super clean with an impressive 4 fitting duct bend sealed tight, but I needed to work from home during the install and I barely heard them throughout the day. I’ll be recommending F&I to all my friends.
