If you owned a mini-split in Loveland, CO, you could benefit in many ways from it. It all depends, though, on your situation. A mini-split air conditioner makes the most sense for those who already have central cooling in their home but have, for example, added a new room. Those who want a garage, tool shed, or other outbuilding cooled can rely on this system, too. However, there are times when going ductless is a good idea, even when whole-house cooling is the goal.
