Why Mini Split Maintenance Is Essential

Your mini split system works hard year-round to heat and cool your home efficiently. Without regular maintenance, dust, pollen, and debris can block airflow and reduce performance. Routine service helps prevent costly repairs and keeps your indoor air clean and healthy.

Benefits of professional maintenance include:

  • Better efficiency: Clean coils and filters improve system performance.
  • Lower utility bills: A tuned system runs more efficiently and uses less energy.
  • Longer system lifespan: Preventive care reduces wear on compressors and fans.
  • Healthier air: Removes contaminants and prevents mold or odor buildup.
  • Quieter operation: Balanced and lubricated parts minimize vibration and noise.

A well-maintained mini split saves money, improves comfort, and provides peace of mind.

    Been using them for years after the owner Kevin showed up so fast when our furnace went out one year. Been a fan since! Now, Danny is so great to work with, also. So friendly, knowledgable, fast. You guys are the best!

    Jessie M.

    Danny came out on a Saturday to diagnosis and fix my mom’s hvac unit.   He was able to quickly determine what the problem was and had all the parts to complete the repair right then.  His communication was clear and did a really good job helping us understand what caused the issue.  I would definitely recommend him and will be calling his company with any needs in the future. Thanks again!

    Michael R.

    Fantastic customer service! I had a furnace issue, called late morning and they fit me in for diagnostic right away. Technician was extremely knowledgable, walked me thru everything he found - unfortunately needed a new furnace (was 24 years old anyways), got it scheduled and installed within 24 hours as everything was in the warehouse (probably got lucky on what we needed). Overall excellent customer service, from scheduling to diagnostic, to installation. Highly recommend.

    Brad D.

    WOW! So impressed with so many aspects of this company. We had an animal die under the house in and could smell it coming out of the vents. When I called around, pest control was weeks out and Best Owner Direct was able to come the next day. Our technician, Danny was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Very professional, kind and made sure we had the problem taken care of the same day so we could breathe again! I look forward to continuing to work with them in the future for our HVAC needs.

    Todd & Tiffany F.

    Daniel was excellent, attentive to detail and committed to completing all tasks other installers overlooked. He worked tirelessly into the evening making sure everything was working properly with a water heather install, and he had a great attitude all along.

    Alma H.

    Excellent customer service, great communications answering all of our questions, left the site clean, and very respectful of our space within the house. Arranged to have someone come from the office later in the week to explain how the thermostat works.

    Vinod S.

    BOD is fast, efficient and affordable life save for my client who is purchasing a home with an old HVAC. Best Owner came quickly to help her asses the cost to replace it, and I will continue to recommend their services!
