Daikin Mini-Split Not Cooling in Durham
The Problem
The Daikin mini-split in the elevator room was not providing adequate cooling.
What We Found
Mario found that the unit was low on R-410A and identified a leak at the evaporator coil.
The Fix
Mario cleared the drainage issue and tested the voltage. He performed a leak search and confirmed the evaporator coil leak using a leak detector. Due to the unit's age and potential for further issues, he recommended a full replacement and will send a formal estimate.
The Result
The unit remains non-operational, and a replacement is advised to ensure reliable cooling.
Pro Tip
If your mini-split system stops cooling, it might be low on refrigerant due to a leak. Address leaks promptly to prevent further damage and avoid costly repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Ductless Mini-Split in Durham
Answered by our licensed technicians serving Durham
How much does a ductless mini-split cost?
A single-zone mini-split system with installation typically costs $3,500-$5,500. Multi-zone systems serving 2-4 rooms range from $6,000-$15,000 depending on capacity and features. We provide detailed quotes after evaluating your specific needs.
Can a mini-split heat my home in winter?
Yes. Modern mini-split heat pumps operate efficiently in North Carolina's winters, providing comfortable heating down to 5-15 degrees depending on the model. They're an excellent year-round solution for Triangle-area homes.
How efficient are ductless mini-splits?
Mini-splits achieve SEER ratings of 20-30+, compared to 14-18 for most central systems. Plus, they eliminate the 25-30% energy loss that occurs in ductwork. Many Triangle homeowners see significant reductions in their Duke Energy bills.
Are mini-splits noisy?
No. Indoor units operate at 19-32 decibels—quieter than a whisper or library. Outdoor units are similarly quiet compared to traditional AC condensers. You may forget the system is running.
