Mini split ductless AC installation in Temple Terrace solves a problem this city knows well: cooling rooms that central air cannot reach. Action Air Conditioning, Florida license CAC042730, is a family company, and we have been putting ductless systems into Tampa Bay homes since 1988, often in the one room everybody had given up on.
Garages, Florida rooms, additions, and converted lanais all stay comfortable with a ductless system, and no duct runs are required to get there.
Why are mini splits such a good fit for older Temple Terrace homes?
Because many of the solid block houses built here between the 1950s and 1970s were never designed for ductwork, and cutting new duct paths through concrete block is expensive and sometimes impossible. A ductless system needs only a small wall opening for the line set, so the house keeps its character while gaining modern cooling.
That is why mini splits are a favorite for river view additions, garage workshops, and in law suites in the neighborhoods around USF.
Do ductless systems cool as well as central air?
Yes, and often more efficiently. Each indoor head serves its own zone with its own thermostat, so you cool the rooms you actually use instead of conditioning the whole house. Modern units run quietly, dehumidify steadily, and carry high efficiency ratings that can trim summer power bills.
They also pair well with an existing central system, covering the one stubborn room the ducts never reached.

Garages, Florida rooms, additions, and converted lanais all stay comfortable with a ductless system, and no duct runs are required to get there. We see them most often in river view additions, garage workshops, and in law suites in the neighborhoods around USF. They also pair well with an existing central system, covering the one stubborn room the ducts never reached.
Wondering if your addition or garage qualifies? Contact us and we will walk through your options.
Absolutely. Ductless systems pair well with an existing central system. We install them when one room never gets cool, when an addition was built after the original AC was sized, or when a garage conversion needs climate control. The mini split handles that space independently while your central system continues serving the rest of the house.
To talk through how a single zone ductless would work in your home, contact us or call (813) 935-6644.
Installation is faster than adding ductwork because we only need a small wall opening for the line set. Our crews will skip lunch to finish rather than leave a customer without air. The exact timeline depends on the number of zones and whether electrical work is required.
For a timeline based on your specific project, contact us for a free estimate.
Usually less expensive, because you are cooling only the rooms you actually use instead of conditioning the whole house. Modern units carry high efficiency ratings that can trim summer power bills. You also avoid the duct losses that central systems experience, which in an unconditioned attic can waste a significant portion of cooled air before it ever reaches the room.

Our crews install every system. Action Air Conditioning is a family company, Florida license CAC042730, and both owners, Dave Russell and Chris Russell, are licensed Florida mechanical contractors who personally qualify the license. Many AC companies are run by owners who do not hold the qualifying licenses themselves. We do it differently. Customers are commonly surprised by how thoroughly our crews clean up after an install.
To meet with one of our comfort consultants, contact us or visit our showroom at 8926 N Armenia Ave in Tampa.
If a system genuinely fails three real service calls in its first year, we replace the unit rather than keep repairing it. There is no lemon law for air conditioning, but that is our practice. It does not happen often, but when it does we take care of it.

Meet someone in person. The most common objection we hear from customers is that they price-compared online without speaking to anyone and then felt burned. Every Temple Terrace home is different, especially the older block houses, and a real estimate requires seeing the space, the electrical panel, and the exterior wall where the condenser will sit. We offer free estimates, and you will get a straight answer about whether ductless fits your project.
