Flat-Price Ductless Mini Splits in 78751, Austin

Updated September 2026

Looking for relief from another Austin summer without tearing up your walls or your wallet? Around the 78751 area, we see homeowners tired of window units that barely keep up and central air bills that climb into the stratosphere. A ductless mini split gives you room-by-room control without the headache of ductwork. The best part: you know the price before we roll the truck. We install one zone, complete, for a flat $2,000. That covers the outdoor unit, the indoor head, the line set, the electrical whip, the pad, and the labor. No hourly rates, no material markups tacked on at the end of the job.

We built this crew on a simple old-west idea: say what you do, do what you say, and charge a fair price. In a city like Austin where every trade seems to want to bid high and negotiate down, that approach stands out. For a two-zone system serving two rooms in your 78751 home, the flat price is $3,700. Need three zones? That job runs $5,400. That is the entire pricing menu. We do not charge extra for a longer line set on a typical single-story ranch or a two-story home in this part of town. We do not add fees because the install falls on a Friday. These are the only numbers you will see from us, and they include a full manufacturer warranty and our own workmanship guarantee.

What We Install in Austin 78751

Every system we put in around the 78751 zip code is a high-efficiency inverter-driven heat pump. That means it cools in the summer and heats in the winter, which matters more than folks admit when that February cold snap hits Austin. We stick with brands that hold up under Texas sun and the pollen that blankets this part of town every spring. The outdoor units are compact enough to tuck beside a walkway or behind a fence gate. The indoor heads mount high on a wall and run quiet enough that you forget they are on. The flat price includes a programmable remote, and we walk you through the settings before we leave.

One zone for $2,000. Two zones for $3,700. Three zones for $5,400. Those numbers cover the equipment, the dedicated electrical circuit from your panel, the concrete pad, the line hide to keep the exterior looking clean, and the full evacuation and startup. We do not subcontract the electrical work. The same crew that hangs the indoor unit runs the wiring and makes the final connections. That keeps the schedule tight and the quality consistent across every job in the 78751 area. If your panel needs an upgrade to handle the new circuit, we will tell you upfront and give you a separate flat number before any work begins.

The Homes and Spaces We Work In Around 78751

Across the Austin metro, our crews roll up to a wide mix of homes. We see everything from mid-century single-story houses with pier-and-beam foundations to newer two-story builds on slab, plus a healthy number of detached garages and backyard studios. In this part of town, a lot of the homes we serve were built before central air was standard, which makes a ductless mini split the cleanest way to add real comfort. Running ductwork through an older home in Austin can turn into a framing and drywall nightmare. A mini split needs only a three-inch opening through the exterior wall, and we seal that opening tight against heat, bugs, and humidity.

For the homes in the 78751 zip code that already have central air, the most common request we get is for supplemental cooling in a room that never quite keeps up. Maybe it is a second-story bedroom that bakes in the afternoon, or a sunroom with too much glass facing west. A single-zone system at $2,000 solves that problem without jacking up the tonnage on the main unit. And because these are heat pumps, the same indoor head takes the chill off that room in January. Whether the house is a pier-and-beam bungalow or a newer infill build, the install follows the same flat-price playbook.

Garages, Home Offices, Hot Bedrooms, Casitas, Workshops, She Sheds, Additions

The way Austin lives has changed, and the spaces we use day to day have changed with it. A garage in the 78751 area becomes a wood shop or a gym. A backyard casita turns into a full-time rental or a mother-in-law suite. A spare bedroom becomes a home office with two monitors and a desktop that throws heat all day. None of these spaces were designed for the cooling load they now carry. A ductless mini split gives each space its own thermostat and its own zone of control. For a garage workshop, $2,000 gets you a unit that keeps the tools from rusting and the occupant from wilting.

We install a lot of single-zone systems in home offices around Austin. When you are on video calls all afternoon in a closed room, the rest of the house's central air does not help much. Close the door, turn on the mini split, and that room stays at 72 degrees regardless of what the oven or the afternoon sun is doing to the rest of the home. For a two-zone setup at $3,700, we often pair a bedroom and an adjacent office. For a casita with a living area and a sleeping alcove, a two-zone system gives each space independent control. At $5,400, a three-zone system handles a larger addition or a whole small guest house. The pricing does not change based on how you use the room.

How Quoting and Scheduling Works in 78751

We do not do phone estimates and we do not do high-pressure in-home sales pitches. The way to get a price in the 78751 zip code is to fill out the form on our website. Tell us how many zones you are thinking about, describe the rooms, and we will confirm the flat price for your configuration. That is the price. For one zone it is $2,000. For two zones it is $3,700. For three zones it is $5,400. If you need something outside those configurations, we will tell you honestly and point you toward the right solution, even if that means we are not the right crew for the job.

Once you approve the quote, we put you on the schedule. Most installs in Austin take one day for a single-zone system and a day and a half to two days for multi-zone setups. We show up with the equipment, the materials, and the permits pulled. We protect your floors, we clean up the job site at the end of each day, and we walk you through the system operation before we hand over the remote. Every install in the 78751 area comes with the manufacturer warranty registered in your name and our own workmanship guarantee. If something is not right, you call us and we come back. That is the deal, plain and simple.

Old West Pricing for a Modern Austin Home

There is a lot of noise in the home services world. Complicated quotes, limited-time discounts, financing pitches, and numbers that change depending on what the salesperson thinks you can pay. We do not play that game. We hang our prices on the wall like an old general store. $2,000 for one zone. $3,700 for two. $5,400 for three. Those prices hold whether you live right in the heart of the 78751 zip code or anywhere else we serve in Austin. The equipment is the same, the install quality is the same, and the warranty is the same.

Austin summers are not getting any cooler, and the grid is not getting any more forgiving. A ductless mini split sips power compared to a central system cooling an entire house just to make one room comfortable. It also gives you a backup heating source that runs on electricity, which matters when the natural gas supply gets tight. For $2,000 you can solve the one room that has been driving you crazy every August. Fill out the form on the website, get your flat quote, and let us get you comfortable before the next heat wave rolls through this part of town. We look forward to earning your business in the 78751 area.

Questions

Straight answers for Austin

Does the $2,000 flat price cover everything, or will I see extra charges on install day?

The $2,000 flat price covers the complete single-zone install: the outdoor condenser, the indoor wall-mounted head, up to 25 feet of line set, the dedicated electrical circuit from your panel, a concrete equipment pad, standard line hide on the exterior wall, and all labor. The only time we discuss additional cost is if your electrical panel needs an upgrade to accommodate the new circuit, and we will tell you that before any work begins.

How long does a typical install take in the 78751 area?

A single-zone system usually takes one full day from arrival to cleanup. A two-zone system at $3,700 typically takes a day and a half. A three-zone system at $5,400 may take two full days depending on the layout of the rooms and the distance between the indoor heads and the outdoor unit. We protect floors, work clean, and walk you through the system operation before we leave.

Do I need a permit for a mini split install in Austin?

Yes, the City of Austin requires an electrical permit for a mini split installation. We pull the permit as part of the flat price. The permit covers the dedicated circuit and the final connection. The inspection happens after the install is complete, and we coordinate that with the city so you do not have to manage the process. The permit fee is included in the flat rate you see.

Can you install a unit in my detached garage or backyard studio in 78751?

Absolutely. Detached garages, workshops, she sheds, and backyard studios are some of the most common spaces we condition around Austin. We run the line set and electrical through a buried conduit or along a fence line, depending on the site. The flat price holds as long as the distance between the indoor head and the outdoor unit stays within our standard line-set length. We will confirm the layout during the quote process.

What kind of warranty comes with the install?

Every system we install in Austin carries the full manufacturer warranty on parts, typically five to seven years depending on the brand, and we register that warranty in your name. Our workmanship guarantee covers the installation labor for two years. If something acts up, you reach out through the website and we make it right. No phone tag, no runaround.
