Mini Split Installation in Evans, CO
Professional Mini Split Installation in Evans, CO — HALO Heating and Air
Choosing a ductless mini-split system is a smart investment in the comfort and efficiency of your Evans home. These versatile systems offer unparalleled zoned temperature control, quiet operation, and significant energy savings. However, the key to unlocking these benefits lies not just in the equipment itself, but in the quality of its installation. A mini-split is a sophisticated piece of HVAC technology, and its performance, efficiency, and lifespan are directly dependent on a precise, professional installation process. Improper installation can lead to a host of problems, from poor performance and high energy bills to refrigerant leaks and premature system failure.
At HALO Heating and Air, our approach is built on meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every component is sized, placed, and connected according to manufacturer specifications and industry best practices. We provide Evans residents with a seamless installation experience that guarantees their new system operates at peak performance from the very first day.
The Critical Importance of a Professional Installation with HALO Heating and Air
- Warranty Protection: Most manufacturers will void their warranties if the unit is not installed by a licensed and certified HVAC professional. Protecting your investment starts with a proper installation by HALO Heating and Air.
- Optimal Efficiency: System efficiency ratings (SEER/HSPF) are based on perfect installation conditions. Incorrect refrigerant charging, leaky line sets, or poor unit placement can drastically reduce efficiency, leading to higher-than-expected energy costs. Our team sets your system up to perform to spec.
- System Longevity: The leading cause of compressor failure—the heart of your AC system—is contamination within the refrigerant lines. Our professional installers use specific procedures, like vacuum testing, to remove moisture and contaminants that can cause corrosive acids to form, ensuring a long and reliable service life.
- Safety and Compliance: Installing a mini-split involves high-voltage electrical connections and handling high-pressure refrigerant. HALO Heating and Air technicians ensure all electrical work is performed safely and is fully compliant with Evans and Colorado building codes, protecting your home and family.
Our Meticulous Mini Split Installation Process — HALO Heating and Air
We believe in complete transparency. Understanding our detailed process gives you the confidence that your home comfort is in the hands of true professionals. We treat every installation with the precision it deserves, from sizing to commissioning, so your mini-split delivers quiet, efficient, zoned comfort year-round.
Comprehensive Consultation and System Sizing
We don’t rely on guesswork or simple square footage estimates. Our process begins with a thorough on-site evaluation, where we perform a professional load calculation (Manual J). This scientific assessment considers room dimensions and ceiling height, insulation levels in walls and attics, number, size, and type of windows, local Evans climate data and sun exposure, and heat-generating appliances and occupancy.
This data allows HALO Heating and Air to recommend a system with the precise BTU capacity needed to cool and heat your specific zone or zones effectively without short-cycling or being overworked, ensuring maximum efficiency and comfort.
Strategic Indoor and Outdoor Unit Placement
Where the units are placed is critical for performance and aesthetics. For the indoor unit (the air handler), we work with you to find a location that provides optimal, draft-free air distribution while remaining as unobtrusive as possible, mounted securely with clearance for proper airflow and future servicing. For the outdoor unit (the condenser), HALO Heating and Air identifies a stable, level location—typically on a prefabricated pad—that minimizes operational noise and provides adequate clearance on all sides for ventilation, essential for efficient heat exchange and preventing the unit from overworking.
Precision Craftsmanship from Start to Finish — HALO Heating and Air
Precise Line Set and Electrical Conduit Installation
We carefully drill a small, clean hole (typically around 3 inches) through an exterior wall to connect the indoor and outdoor units. This opening houses the refrigerant lines, electrical wiring, and a condensate drain line. After the lines are run, we meticulously seal the penetration from the inside and out to prevent air leaks, moisture intrusion, and pest entry, preserving your home's building envelope.
Expert Refrigerant Line Connection and Flaring
This is where true expertise shines. The copper refrigerant lines must be perfectly flared to create a leak-proof seal when connected to the units. Our technicians at HALO Heating and Air use professional flaring tools to create a smooth, symmetrical flare, then a calibrated torque wrench to tighten flare nuts to exact manufacturer-specified torque. This prevents the two most common installation failures: under-tightening (slow refrigerant leaks) and over-tightening (cracked flares and major leaks).
Commissioned for Peak Performance — HALO Heating and Air
The Critical Vacuum and Pressure Test
Before introducing refrigerant, we perform a multi-step process to guarantee the integrity of the line set. First, we pressurize the system with dry nitrogen to check for any leaks at the connection points. After confirming the system is tight, we connect a powerful vacuum pump to boil off and remove all moisture and non-condensable gases from the copper lines. Even a minuscule amount of moisture can mix with refrigerant to form corrosive sludge that can destroy the compressor over time. We pull a deep vacuum and hold it to ensure the system is absolutely clean, dry, and leak-free.
System Charging, Commissioning, and Your Orientation
Once the vacuum test is complete, we release the precise factory charge of refrigerant into the system, power on the unit, and perform a full commissioning checklist. HALO Heating and Air tests all operational modes (cooling, heating, dehumidifying), verifies correct temperature output, checks airflow, and ensures the remote communicates properly with the indoor unit.
Finally, we walk you through the system’s operation, show you how to use the remote, and explain how to clean the filters to keep your new mini-split running efficiently for years to come.

Customer Testimonials
See what homeowners across Windsor and Northern Colorado are saying about our reliable service, expert workmanship, and commitment to getting the job done right.
I called Halo when my water heater started leaking from the bottom. They responded quickly and reviewed my options for a new water heater. Steve was able to locate the particular water heater I wanted and had the old one removed and the new one Installed that day. I can't thank them enough for the prompt service. I highly recommend Halo and will use them again if the need arises. They were very courteous and professional.
Steve, the HALO technician, was great. He did a quick view of our furnace and could see it was malfunctioning. He was very transparent, showing me his initial findings, explaining how the furnace should work and trying a step to correct the problem. When that didn't work, he inspected the wiring more closely and found a crimped wire leading into the burner assembly. He replaced the wire and the furnace resumed normal operation. Thanks much, Steve!
They were on time, friendly and competent. In one day put in new furnace, took away old one. Permit was issued and city inspector said they did a really good job. I will use Halo for all my future HVAC needs.
Chernet and Steve were incredibly professional and compassionate! They thoroughly explained the issue with my furnace, made sure that i understood, and then showed me what they found.
I’m am so impressed with the quality and depth of service that I received. The details about what was being done and how the system works were so helpful to me and the most valuable as I know how to help diagnose my own system.
They tested everything and were able to diagnose my problems and get them fixed. This was after two other companies had tried to do this and failed
I would recommend them again to everyone who wanted expertise and high level skills and knowledge who will get the problem resolved.
Halo is a excellent service for heating and air conditioning. Very attentive, informative and a great problem solver.

Steve and Chernet literally saved our kennel dogs and puppies by repairing a heating system that was not designed to function in negative temperatures. They came up with a plan to keep the temperatures warm and monitored them throughout the night!! They did that! And did it all for an extremely fair price. We have had several other HVAC companies come to our business to“fix” our system. Nobody had ever been honest with us, and kept charging more and more each visit leaving us with a system that really was not designed to work properly. We will never use another HVAC company again. Halo has our business for life!!
