South Lamar Ductless Mini Split Installation, Flat Price From $2,000
Updated September 2026
South Lamar homes sit square in Travis County heat. Plenty of older houses, garage apartments, casitas, and room additions here were built without ductwork, and a central system is either impractical or too expensive to extend. A ductless mini split does the job without tearing open walls or ceilings.
Old West Minisplits installs new ductless heat pumps at flat prices: $2,000 for one zone, $3,700 for two zones, $5,400 for three zones. The price includes equipment, labor, line set, standard electrical, refrigerant, testing, cleanup, and a Home Depot run for touch-up paint. No trip fees and no surprise add-ons. Start with the quote form.
What the Flat Price Covers
The flat installed price includes the equipment, labor, line set, standard electrical, refrigerant, testing, cleanup, and a Home Depot run for touch-up paint. There are no trip fees or surprise add-ons. The honest exceptions are told up front, never after the work starts: a very long line set, a panel upgrade the house already needed, or unusually difficult mounting. That is the whole list.
Typical South Lamar Jobs
Old West Minisplits works on the kinds of spaces South Lamar homeowners actually live with: older homes without ductwork, garage apartments, casitas, additions, upstairs rooms that never cool enough, and bonus rooms over a hot Texas garage. One zone covers a single room or small space. Two and three zone systems handle larger layouts while keeping the same flat installed pricing.
Most local HVAC contractors quote ductless installs at $3,000-$6,000 per zone after an in-home sales visit. Old West Minisplits skips the sales visit and posts the price. Window units and portable ACs are cheaper upfront, but they cool one room loudly, block a window, drip condensate, and are far less efficient.
Ductless Heat Pumps for Travis County
Mini splits are heat pumps. They cool through brutal Central Texas summers and handle our mild winters without a furnace. That means one system can replace a window unit in summer and a space heater in January. Because the compressor and condenser live outside and the indoor unit mounts high on a wall or ceiling, you keep the window clear and move most of the noise outside.
Old West Minisplits serves Austin and the I-35 corridor, north to Waco/Killeen and south to San Antonio. The flat pricing is the same corridor-wide, including South Lamar and Travis County. Use the quote form to get a flat new installation price.

How does scheduling work?
Start with the quote form on this page. Old West Minisplits does flat-price new installation, so there is no in-home sales appointment just to get a number. Scheduling is based on current availability and the details you submit, and the form is the fastest way to get your project in the queue.
Do you repair existing mini splits or window units?
Old West Minisplits performs flat-price new installation, not repair work. For a mini split that is not cooling, start with the basics: clean or replace the washable filter, clear leaves and debris from the outdoor unit, set the mode to cool, check the breaker, and make sure the condensate drain is not blocked. If the system is aging, failing, or was poorly installed, a flat-price new install quote often makes more sense than chasing repairs on an old unit.
Does a mini split work for Texas winters too?
Yes. Mini splits are heat pumps. They cool through brutal Central Texas summers and handle our mild winters without a furnace. If you currently use noisy window units or portable ACs, a mini split is a permanent, more efficient upgrade that also keeps windows closed and clear.
