RUSSELL'S HEATING AND COOLING

Keep any place comfortable with the Mitsubishi Mini-Split

by Rob Lauer



Buddy Smith's garage is his sanctuary, his retreat from the world. As the owner of Russell's Heating and Cooling, and a dedicated family man who is also civically engaged, he sometimes feels the need to decompress. At such times, Buddy finds that nothing helps him do that like escaping to his garage and cleaning his car.

"It's very therapeutic," Buddy explains with a boyish grin. "The thing is, I like heat, and I want my garage to be warm in the winter. When we have poker night with the boys and are hanging  out in the garage, regardless of the time of year, I want us to be comfortable."

Buddy found the perfect solution with the Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump.

"The Mitsubishi is where it's at!" Buddy declares. "It keeps any room at a perfect temperature at any time of year. It's state-of-the-art, and completely different from other models. For one thing, there's no duct work. The air blows directly into the room, which makes it incredibly reliable and energy-efficient. Because ductless mini-splits heat and cool using so little electricity compared to traditional units, they can dramatically reduce a home's overall energy bill.

As summer draws to a close,  some people may be wondering what they can do next year about that room over the garage that they could never get cool enough. Maybe they have a self-standing structure that's unbearable to be in when the heat index is near 100 degrees or winter temperatures drop below freezing. How many Hampton Roads families stay away from the ping pong or pool table they've set up in their detached garage because they can't stand sweltering in July and freezing in February? How many she-sheds, workshops and artist's studios go unused most of the year because of extreme temperatures? Many area homes have guest houses that remain empty because of the difficulty and cost of keeping them sufficiently heated or cooled. In all of these situations, Buddy insists that the Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Split is the solution.

"Not only is Mitsubishi the perfect solution for those sorts of spaces, but it's also perfect for cooling and heating an entire home or workplace," Buddy continues. "Many parts of our new office facility are completely cooled and heated by Mitsubishi. There are units in each room, but because they run so quietly and their design is so simple and sleek, you don't even notice them."
Two walls of Buddy's corner office at Russell's Heating and Cooling are glass from ceiling to floor; sunlight continually pours in throughout the day. "But Mitsubishi keeps the room cool and comfortable," he attests. "During the cold weather, people coming into my office always comment on how nice and warm it is."

"And as unbelievable as this may sound, ductless mini-splits just don't break down," Buddy adds. "Our technicians here at Russell's have installed hundreds, and we almost never receive a service call because of a breakdown. Most of the calls we've gotten were maintenance-related."



Not only can a Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump from Russell’s efficiently heat and cool an entire house,
but, due to its compact and sleek design, it blends into the decor of any room.

Because of Mitsubishi's simple design, the units look as though they would be very user-friendly as far as installation is concerned.

"A home is the biggest purchase that most people ever make," Buddy observes, "so why shouldn't they get the most use of every available space? Thanks to Mitsubishi Ductless Mini-Splits, every room and space can always be cozy and welcoming no matter the time or season."
