Ductless Mini Split Installation for Mother in Law Suites
Updated September 2026
['Adding a mother in law suite or secondary living space to your home can be a great way to increase its value and provide additional living area. When it comes to conditioning these spaces, a ductless mini split system is often a cost-effective and efficient solution. At Mini Split Reef, we offer a flat rate of $2,000 per mini split installed, with no trip fees or surprise add-ons.', 'Our flat rate includes equipment, labor, line set, standard electrical, refrigerant, testing, cleanup, and even a Home Depot run for touch-up paint. We serve the Austin area and the I-35 corridor, from Waco and Killeen to San Antonio, all at the same flat rate.']Benefits of Ductless Mini Splits
Ductless mini splits are heat pumps, which means they can cool your mother in law suite during the hot Central Texas summers and handle the mild winters without the need for a furnace. This makes them a great option for secondary living spaces, as they provide efficient and effective temperature control.
Volume Discounts for Property Managers and Landlords
If you are a property manager, landlord, or multi-unit owner, we offer a volume discount off our standard $2,000 per unit rate. This can help you save even more on your ductless mini split installation.
Honest Exceptions and Service Area
We want to be upfront about any potential exceptions to our flat rate. These may include very long line sets, panel upgrades that the house already needs, or unusually difficult mounting. Our service area includes Austin and the I-35 corridor, from Waco and Killeen to San Antonio, and we charge the same flat rate throughout this area.
