Carrier Mini Splits with the Price Posted Up Front
Carrier is a name most people on the I-35 north corridor already know from the condenser in the yard. Wanting that same name on a ductless mini split should not turn into a staring contest. Other contractors commonly quote ductless work in Central Texas at $3,000 to $6,000 per zone. Most of them require an in-home visit before they name a figure.
Old West Minisplits posts the price up front, no standoffs. A new Carrier mini split install is $2,000 for one zone, $3,700 for two zones, and $5,400 for three zones. Four or more zones are quoted individually. Use the form at /#quote.
Carrier Gear, Installed as a Complete System
A Carrier mini split is a matched heat pump. The outdoor unit, indoor air handlers, and controls are sold to work together on one refrigerant circuit per zone, or on a multi-zone outdoor chassis. Mixing leftover heads from another brand is not the job we price.
Licensed contractors run the line set, make the connections the equipment calls for, pull a vacuum, and weigh in the charge. They mount the indoor unit on a wall, a ceiling cassette location, or a floor console as the room allows. Standard electrical to the outdoor disconnect sits inside the flat price. A panel upgrade the house already needed is not included, and that work is handled by a licensed electrician the homeowner arranges separately.
The Flat Price for a New Carrier Install
One Carrier zone is $2,000. Two zones are $3,700. Three zones are $5,400. Four or more zones are quoted individually on the form at /#quote.
That posted number includes the Carrier equipment, labor, line set, standard electrical, refrigerant, testing, cleanup, and a Home Depot run for touch-up paint. There are no trip fees. These prices are for new installs only, never repairs or service calls. If this page is being read as a Carrier repair rate, it is not.
Texas Heat, Mild Winters, Honest Exceptions
A Carrier mini split is a heat pump. It cools through brutal Central Texas summers in Killeen, Temple, Belton, Harker Heights, Copperas Cove, Waco, Salado, and Jarrell. In a mild winter it heats the same rooms without a furnace.
A very long line set, a panel upgrade the house already needed, or unusually difficult mounting can change the number, and those exceptions are stated up front, never buried. Old West Minisplits does not perform insulation, duct demolition, solar, generator work, dehumidifier installs, plumbing, or roofing. If a rebate or tax credit might apply to a heat pump, verify current numbers with your utility provider, a licensed electrician, or the IRS. Request the new-install quote at /#quote.

Straight answers
Is $2,000 the posted price to install one new Carrier mini split zone?
Yes, for a new install. Two zones are $3,700 and three zones are $5,400. Four or more zones are quoted individually. That figure includes equipment, labor, line set, standard electrical, refrigerant, testing, cleanup, and a Home Depot run for touch-up paint. Start at /#quote.
Do these Carrier prices cover a repair or a service call?
No. These flat prices are for new installs only. An existing Carrier mini split that needs a leak search, a part, or a service visit is not sold at $2,000, $3,700, or $5,400.
Who handles electrical on a Carrier mini split install?
Standard electrical for the new outdoor unit is inside the flat price and is part of the licensed installation. A panel upgrade the house already needed is an honest exception. That panel work is handled by a licensed electrician, arranged separately.
Can I count on a posted rebate dollar amount for a Carrier heat pump?
No dollar amount belongs on this page, because those figures change. Verify current rebate and tax credit numbers with your utility provider, a licensed electrician, or the IRS. The Old West Minisplits install price itself stays posted for new work.
