The answer to 'how much to replace ductless system local' is that the cost can vary significantly depending on several factors. As an expert HVAC technician, I can provide some general guidance on the typical range and what influences the pricing.
The cost to replace a ductless (also known as a mini-split) HVAC system can range anywhere from $3,000 to $15,000 or more, depending on the size of your home, the complexity of the installation, the brand and model of the equipment, and your local labor rates. Larger homes or systems with multiple indoor air handlers will be on the higher end of that range. Additionally, the accessibility of the installation site, any necessary electrical or structural work, and the experience level of the HVAC contractor can all impact the final price.
