Houston's subtropical climate delivers relentless heat and humidity from May through October. Outdoor humidity routinely exceeds 80 percent, and indoor humidity can climb above 60 percent without aggressive dehumidification. Ductless air conditioners excel in this environment because inverter-driven compressors run longer at lower speeds, pulling more moisture from the air than conventional systems that cycle on and off. Older Houston homes, especially pier-and-beam bungalows in neighborhoods like the Heights and Montrose, often lack ductwork entirely or have undersized ducts that cannot support additional zones. Ductless mini-splits eliminate the need for expensive duct retrofits while delivering superior humidity control.
Houston's building codes require permits for HVAC installations, and the city inspects both electrical and mechanical work. Titan HVAC Houston handles all permitting and coordinates inspections to ensure your ductless system meets local code requirements. We also understand the unique challenges of Houston's housing stock, from crawl spaces that flood during heavy rain to attic temperatures that exceed 140 degrees in summer. Our technicians know how to route refrigerant lines through masonry walls, position outdoor condensers to avoid flood zones, and secure equipment to withstand high winds during hurricane season. Local expertise matters when you are investing in a system designed to last 15 years or more.
