Published Efficiency Requirements
- Efficiency minimums: 18 SEER2, 11.5 EER2 and 8.5 HSPF2.
- Low-temperature performance: A heating COP of at least 1.75 at 5°F, listed on ashp.neep.org.
- Heating capacity: Capacity at 5°F of at least 70% of the rated capacity at 47°F.
- Who qualifies: Xcel customers with gas or electric service; both are not required.
What Affects Installation Cost
Daikin mini-split pricing depends on several factors. Homes more than 60 minutes from Denver add travel time. Units installed above the first floor may cost more depending on ladder access, and line sets of 15 feet or more between indoor and outdoor units add cost, as do electrical upgrades. Material costs have risen in recent years, so prices are subject to change and the final cost is set only after a site visit.
Financing is available through Wisetack.
Exceptionally polite and professional service – fast same day repair got me up and running quickly and efficiently.
Joe’s crew always take care of my issues quickly with expertise. I appreciate that they help with kindness and sympathy toward the homeowner; no condescension! They have helped me through issues dealing with a 5-year-old Fujitsu mini-split installation by another HVAC contractor who did not stand behind his work.
BB-COND was great. Responsive and reasonably priced. I received an estimate within a day or two and my new PTAC unit was installed without an issues. Would definitely recommend them!
We’re a women-owned small business with 7 split units on-site. When one of them stopped working this summer we got a quick response from BBCOND (none of the other ac repair companies I reached out to even responded) and it was fixed within the week. They even showed me how to reset and clean the rooftop units so I can do basic maintenance myself. A few weeks later they fixed a dripping unit and a week after that we had them come back to do a thorough clean of all the units. These guys are prompt, efficient, friendly and the full clean ended up costing less than they initially quoted. Highly recommend!
