Mini-split systems are wonderfully efficient and reliable, but when something goes wrong, you need technicians who actually understand ductless technology. At Dye Plumbing & Heating, our NATE certified technicians have the specialized knowledge and training to diagnose and repair mini-split systems quickly and accurately. We're not just HVAC generalists hoping for the best—we genuinely understand how these systems work, what goes wrong, and how to fix them properly.
We service Mitsubishi and all other mini-split brands, troubleshooting everything from simple fixes to complex refrigerant and control issues. With over 86 years of HVAC experience serving La Porte, IN and Northwest Indiana, we've developed deep expertise in these increasingly popular ductless systems.
Mini-splits are different from traditional HVAC equipment in important ways. Their inverter-driven compressors, multi-zone communication systems, and sophisticated electronics require specialized diagnostic approaches. Our technicians stay current with ductless technology through ongoing training, ensuring we can handle whatever problems your system develops.

Mini-split systems consist of indoor units (often called air handlers or heads) connected to outdoor units (condensers) via refrigerant lines and communication wiring. Problems can occur in either unit or in the connections between them.
The indoor units are what you see and interact with daily. When problems develop here, they're often the first symptoms you notice:
The outdoor unit contains the compressor and condenser coil. Problems here often affect the entire system:
Some problems affect the entire mini-split system:

Mini-splits require a different diagnostic approach than traditional HVAC systems. Here's how our technicians tackle mini-split repairs:
We troubleshoot methodically, starting with the most likely causes and working through possibilities systematically:
Once we've diagnosed the problem, we explain what we found in plain language. We'll describe what's wrong, why it happened, and what's needed to fix it. You'll understand the repair before we begin, including what it will cost.
We use proper parts and follow manufacturer procedures. Mini-split repairs often require specific techniques and components—generic approaches don't work well with these sophisticated systems. We repair to manufacturer specifications for lasting results.
Mini-splits rely on communication wiring between indoor and outdoor units. We troubleshoot communication wiring connections, control board issues, sensor failures, and multi-zone communication problems.
Proper refrigerant charge is critical for mini-split performance. We test for leaks, locate the source, repair properly, and evacuate and recharge to manufacturer specifications.
Each indoor unit produces condensation that must drain away. We clear blockages, verify proper drain pan pitch, and ensure condensate flows away properly.
Electronic control boards manage mini-split operation. When boards fail, we diagnose carefully to confirm failure and replace with proper parts.
Mini-splits use multiple sensors for temperature measurement and system monitoring. We identify failed sensors and replace them with correct specifications.
Indoor unit fan motors can fail or develop bearing problems over time. We can often repair or replace fan motors to restore proper operation.
