My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

any reviews on ductless split heating and cooling? l

6 years ago

We need to replace HVAC. No basement, and no crawl space. 1650 sq ft ranch home in Wisconsin. At the moment gas furnace is in our bedroom closet. Absolutely, hate the noise! Duct work runs through the attic with one lonely return for the entire house. On paper, Split system seems like a great fix. Just want some honest opinions on quality of product, efficiency and quietness. Also, it gets pretty cold here. Can these systems handle Wisconsin winters?
