Planning a midsize house addition - about 800 sqft in 3 rooms that will need cooling. This is a new second floor and physically at the opposite end of my house from my existing HVAC system, so a new independent system makes sense vs upsizing.
Multi-head ductless could be an option but because of my room layout, connections to the outside and drain lines would be a pain. I'd prefer to go with a traditional central air handler and traditional ducts as my losses will be minimal. I've got a closet in the center of the addition so this should be easy enough. My longest duct run might be 10'.
HOWEVER, outside, my space is somewhat limited, and on this side of the house I'll be close to the lot line so would prefer the profile of a mini-split style condensing unit. I will also be adding a mini-split for the garage afterwards, so feels like I could pour a small pad or wall mount two condensers easy enough and wouldn't be an eyesore.
Neighbor just had a York system like this installed which looked okay to me. Any other vendors I should be looking at or avoiding?
