Air Conditioning Installation in Madison, WI

PHARO HEATING & COOLING

AIR CONDITIONERS

There are two different air conditioning systems that we offer: (1) central air conditioners and (2) ductless mini-split air conditioners. The central air conditioner systems circulate cool air through the same system of ducts that your furnace uses. The mini-split air conditioner systems are generally used in small commercial areas or retrofit add-ons to buildings with ductless heating systems, such as hydronic, radiant panels, and space heaters. Both of these systems have two main components: an outdoor compressor/condenser unit, and an indoor air-handling unit.
