Questions

Can I finance a full HVAC replacement?

Yes, on approved credit: $2,000 down and 10% APR over 40 to 50 months through Old West Minisplits once the walkthrough price is set.

Should I replace with a heat pump?

A heat pump heats and cools with one outdoor unit. In Central Texas winters it usually costs less to run than electric resistance heat.

Is a mini split cheaper than central air?

For one to three rooms, usually yes: no ductwork. For a whole house with good existing ducts, a ducted system is often the better fit.
