The electrical side
of your mini-split installation.
Equipment model, location and electrical specifications guide the installation. We define the electrical work clearly so it can fit into the rest of your project.
01
Equipment specification review
We review the selected unit’s electrical data and installation instructions before defining the circuit and connection requirements.
02
Dedicated equipment circuits
We plan a suitable circuit from the electrical panel to the equipment location, considering the installation route and equipment requirements.
03
Outdoor disconnects
The electrical scope includes assessment of the disconnect and connection arrangement needed for the selected outdoor equipment.
04
Garage & workshop projects
A garage or workshop unit may require a longer route or a review of the existing electrical supply. We assess those conditions before estimating.
05
Additions & converted spaces
For a new room or conversion, we coordinate the electrical work with the broader renovation schedule and the equipment location.
06
HVAC contractor coordination
We clarify the electrical responsibilities, timing and handoff with your HVAC installer so the circuit work supports the overall installation.

This service page covers the electrical circuit, disconnect and electrical connection scope. Equipment mounting, refrigerant lines, HVAC commissioning and other trade work must be specifically included in an agreed proposal or coordinated with your HVAC installer.
The selected equipment’s electrical ratings and installation instructions guide the design. Send the exact model details so we can review them rather than sizing the circuit from room area alone.
We need to assess the circuit, wiring, protective equipment and the unit’s requirements before confirming reuse. An available breaker position alone does not establish that an existing circuit is suitable.
We can assess the electrical supply and route to the garage. The scope depends on the existing feeder, available capacity, distance and installation conditions.
Contact us once you have equipment specifications and proposed locations, ideally before the HVAC installation date is fixed. This gives time to coordinate the electrical work and any additional requirements.
