From initial contact to final verification — here is how we handle mini split installation.
KIC Refrigeration designs mini-split systems in Missoula, MT zone by zone. We perform individual load calculations for each room, select wall-mount, ceiling cassette, or floor-mount indoor units based on room layout, plan condensate drainage paths, and size the outdoor unit with the correct number of ports and total BTU capacity to serve all connected zones.
We mount each indoor unit on a reinforced wall bracket at the manufacturer-recommended height, install the outdoor condenser on a level pad or wall bracket with proper clearance, and core-drill lineset penetrations with a slight downward pitch for condensate drainage.
At your Missoula property, our technician runs insulated copper linesets, makes flare connections using a calibrated flare tool and torque wrench, connects the condensate drain, pulls the system down to 400 microns or below with a vacuum pump, and decay-tests for 30 minutes to verify zero leakage before releasing refrigerant.
KIC Refrigeration commissions every mini-split installation in Missoula, MT by verifying superheat and subcooling on each indoor unit, confirming refrigerant distribution across all connected heads, setting up wireless controls and Wi-Fi apps, and training you on seasonal mode selection, timer functions, and filter cleaning schedules.
