Tri-Point Refrigeration Inc vs Mini Split Reef
Updated September 2026
Tri-Point Refrigeration Inc is a licensed air conditioning contractor working in the Hutto area. This page is not a review and it does not rate their work. It simply lays two pricing models side by side: the custom quote approach most Central Texas HVAC companies use, and the posted flat rate Mini Split Reef publishes for ductless mini split installation.

The Mini Split Reef model
Our model is simple arithmetic. One zone installed is $2,000 flat, materials and labor. Two zones, $4,000. Three zones, $6,000. There is no in home sales visit to sit through and no quote that arrives three days later. The number you see here is the number on the invoice.
How the local market usually prices
Ductless installs in Central Texas commonly run $3,000 to $6,000 per zone on a custom quote. That is not a knock on any contractor; the custom quote model prices each job individually, usually after an in home visit, and the final number depends on what the estimator sees and how the visit goes.
Mini splits in Hutto
Hutto's newer homes usually have sound central systems, so the mini split call there is typically a garage, a shop, or one stubborn room. Single zone, one visit, $2,000 flat.

Straight answers
Do you badmouth other contractors to win jobs?
No. Licensed competitors are legitimate businesses and many do excellent work. This page compares pricing models only, and the only facts stated about the other company come from the public state license roster and, where shown, their own website.
Is the $2,000 per zone price really all in?
Yes. Equipment, labor, line set, standard electrical, refrigerant, testing, and cleanup are included. The only exceptions, named before work starts, are a very long line set, a panel upgrade the house already needed, or unusually difficult mounting.
Do you charge more for two or three zones?
The rate is linear. One zone is $2,000, two zones are $4,000, three zones are $6,000. Multi zone equipment differences are absorbed into the flat rate.
