Flat-Price Mini Splits in Troy, Texas, $2,000 Installed
Updated September 2026
Troy summers hit 100° and your old window unit is gasping. The garage, casita, or that back bedroom with no ductwork stays sticky while the rest of the house fights over the thermostat. Most HVAC contractors want to send a salesman to your door, measure every wall, and come back with a quote that starts at $3,700 per zone. We don’t do that.
Old West Minisplits posts flat prices up front: one zone for $2,000, two for $3,700, three for $5,400. Equipment, labor, refrigerant, and cleanup are included. No trip fees, no surprise add-ons. If your job is straightforward, most Troy homes are, you’ll pay the price you saw online. If it’s not, we’ll tell you before we start, not after.
What’s Included in the Flat Price
The $2,000 single-zone price covers a 12,000 BTU ductless mini split, installed. That means the indoor wall unit, outdoor compressor, up to 25 feet of line set, standard electrical work (a new 240V circuit from your panel), refrigerant, testing, and cleanup. We’ll even swing by Home Depot for a quart of touch-up paint to match your wall. If you need a second or third zone, add $1,000 per zone.
We tell you up front about the rare exceptions: a line set longer than 50 feet, a panel upgrade your house already needed, or a wall that’s unusually difficult to mount on. No surprises after the fact.
Typical Troy Jobs
Most of our Troy installs are for homes that never had ductwork or need to add cooling to a new space. Common jobs include:
- Garages turned into workshops or man caves.
- Casitas or mother-in-law suites.
- Back bedrooms that get too hot in the summer.
- Older homes where the original ductwork is shot or nonexistent.
- Sunrooms or additions that were never tied into the central AC.
Mini splits are heat pumps, so they handle Troy’s mild winters too. No furnace needed.
Window Units vs. Mini Splits
Window units and portable ACs are cheap upfront, but they’re loud, block a window, drip condensate, and cool only one room. They’re also far less efficient. A mini split runs quieter, doesn’t take up window space, and can cool multiple rooms if you add zones. Over time, the energy savings often pay for the difference.
If your window unit is on its last legs, it’s usually better to replace it with a mini split than to keep chasing repairs. Same goes for an old, failing ductless system, sometimes a flat-price new install makes more sense than sinking money into a unit that’s past its prime.

Yes. Mini splits are heat pumps, so they provide both cooling and heating. They handle Troy’s mild winters without a problem. If temperatures drop below freezing, the unit may need to defrost occasionally, but it will still keep your space warm.
What if my mini split stops working?

If your unit isn’t working, start with basic troubleshooting: check the thermostat, reset the circuit breaker, and make sure the outdoor unit isn’t blocked by debris. If the system is old, failing, or was poorly installed, it’s often more cost-effective to replace it with a new flat-price install than to keep paying for repairs.
