From initial contact to final verification — here is how we handle mini split installation.
We assess each room or zone you want to condition — measuring square footage, ceiling height, insulation quality, window exposure, and heat gain sources — to select the correct indoor unit capacity in BTU for each head and the right outdoor condenser to serve them all.
KIC Refrigeration mounts mini-split equipment at your Waukegan, IL property to manufacturer specifications. Indoor units are secured to wall studs with reinforced brackets, outdoor units are set on vibration pads or elevated wall brackets for snow clearance, and all wall penetrations are sealed against water intrusion and insulated against thermal loss.
At your Waukegan 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.
We power up the system, verify each indoor unit responds to the remote and thermostat commands, check refrigerant pressures in cooling and heating modes, configure Wi-Fi control if equipped, and demonstrate all operating modes and settings to you.
