What makes ductless mini-split installation different in East County San Diego?
El Cajon, Santee, and Lakeside sit in a heat basin that runs much hotter than the coast on summer afternoons, and room additions in Alpine and Jamul are often easier to serve with a ductless head than by stretching an old trunk. High-ambient outdoor equipment belongs in that climate. The contractor should confirm outdoor-unit clearance, line-set length, and whether the existing central system should stay as the rest of the house.
