We are a father-son owned HVAC business established in 1989. Our work stands out because of a few reasons. First, our attention to detail is of uttermost importance, not only aesthetically, but our heating/cooling calculations are double and triple checked. Secondly, we listen to our customer's needs and customize solutions based upon their specs and bottom line. By far, the best part of the job is getting to know our clientele!

BPI Gold Star Contractor Ductless system installations starting at $2000. NYSERDA Home Comfort and Clean Heat rebate program participating contractor.
"I can't recommend Mini King Installations enough...they are fantastic! We found them through the EmPower program (NYSERDA) and they were so helpful in getting us the maximum rebates for our project. Addans was really thoughtful and clear in explaining the options and how the job would unfold. They did great work, finished in a few days, and cleaned up well after themselves. The Fujitsu units work so well and we are enjoying the warmth - I am confident the AC will be just as good when needed. We just received the first ConEd bill and our usage stayed the same (even though the temperature plunged this month). We used 40% less electricity than last January... Thanks Mini King!"

Heat pumps rely on evaporation and condensation processes. The unit transfers heat through the system via a compressed refrigerant. The compressor within the pump circulates the refrigerant through two coils. The first coil evaporates the refrigerant and absorbs warmth from the air. The refrigerant then passes to the second coil, where it condenses, and the unit releases the absorbed heat.
A well-installed and well-maintained heat pump lasts an average of 12 to 20 years. Routine filter changes, annual tune‑ups, and prompt repairs help the equipment reach the upper end of that range, while skipped maintenance or poor installation can shorten its life and raise long‑term costs. Ask your heat pump installation pro for maintenance recommendations so you can get the maximum benefit from your unit.
Heat pumps are most effective in regions where winter lows remain above approximately 40°F. Efficiency starts to drop below that point and falls off sharply near 25°F. If you live in a colder area, look for a model with a high Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) and plan on supplemental heat during deep freezes to keep energy use in check.
The biggest drawbacks are the upfront cost and poor cold-weather performance. Installation can require electrical upgrades or duct changes, and once temperatures fall well below freezing, the unit may need help from a furnace or electric resistance coils. Factor in those add‑ons, along with routine maintenance, when you weigh the long‑term savings against the initial investment.
