Can a Mini-Split Handle Cold Weather? Here's What You Need to Know About Hyper Heat

Mini-split heat pumps are a great choice for efficient heating and cooling—but if you live somewhere that winter actually feels like winter, not all models are built for the job.

That’s where Hyper Heat systems come in.

These cold-climate heat pumps are designed to keep your home warm and your energy bills low—even when the thermometer drops into the negatives.

What Makes Hyper Heat Systems Different?

Hyper Heat mini-splits use advanced compressor technology and better low-temp performance to deliver consistent heat in colder climates.

For example, Perfect Aire HyperTek™ units can operate in temps as low as -22°F. That’s more than enough to keep you comfortable in the dead of winter.
