More than three-quarters of Cape Cod's housing stock was built between the 1950s and 2000s, according to Data Cape Cod. Many homes from this era lack central ductwork, making retrofits for traditional HVAC systems costly and disruptive. 8th Bend Plumbing has presented its ductless mini split installation services to address this challenge, giving homeowners in these properties a heating and cooling option that does not depend on existing duct systems.
"Ductless mini splits connect an outdoor compressor to one or more indoor units through refrigerant lines," explains a company representative. "Each indoor unit can be set independently, allowing different rooms to be heated or cooled to different temperatures at the same time. This zoned approach reduces energy spent conditioning empty rooms and gives residents more control over comfort in living spaces."
Indoor units also run at noise levels as low as 19 decibels, making them well suited to bedrooms and home offices where quiet operation matters. Built-in filtration further helps reduce dust, pollen, and other airborne particles circulating indoors, supporting better air quality throughout the home.
The company spokesperson highlights that installation involves mounting an indoor unit on a wall and running a small conduit to the outdoor compressor, a process that avoids the wall and ceiling work a full duct retrofit would require.
Cold-climate features are designed to maintain heating performance in freezing temperatures, making the systems suitable for both summer cooling and winter heating. Installation cost typically ranges from $3,000 to $7,000 for a single-zone setup, with multi-zone configurations costing more depending on the number of indoor units and the complexity of the job. Homeowners can contact the company directly for a project-specific estimate.
Residents can also schedule maintenance for existing ductless systems, including filter cleaning, to help keep units operating efficiently.
