Split System Installation Technical Guide for Henderson
Split System Installation: The Most Common Las Vegas HVAC Setup
Split systems are the dominant HVAC configuration in Las Vegas residential construction. The outdoor unit (condenser and compressor) sits on a concrete pad in the side yard or backyard, connected by refrigerant lines to the indoor air handler or furnace with evaporator coil, typically located in a closet, garage, or attic. This separation allows the noisy compressor to be outdoors while the quiet air handler distributes conditioned air inside.
Installation Quality Points
- Condenser pad placement — We position the outdoor unit where it has at least 24 inches of clearance on the service side, adequate airflow space above (no overhangs closer than 60 inches), and protection from direct afternoon sun when possible. Shade can improve condenser efficiency by 5-10% during peak summer.
- Line set routing — Refrigerant lines should take the shortest practical path between units, avoid sharp bends, and be properly insulated (the suction line) and supported. Poor line set routing adds friction, reduces efficiency, and creates stress points where leaks develop.
- Indoor unit placement — The air handler location affects ductwork design, filter access, and maintenance accessibility. We ensure the installation provides adequate clearance for service, proper condensate drainage, and efficient duct connections.
- System commissioning — After installation, we verify refrigerant charge by measuring superheat and subcooling, measure airflow at every register, test all operating modes, and confirm the thermostat controls both units correctly. This ensures the split system performs as a unified, efficient system.
Henderson Neighborhood HVAC Equipment Profile
From an equipment perspective, Henderson's 1950s to present construction means our technicians encounter a wide range of air handlers, split systems, packaged units, and thermostats across different neighborhood sections.
- Water Street District (1950s-1970s original Henderson homes) — Mix of packaged rooftop units and early split systems. Many thermostats are basic manual models overdue for programmable upgrades.
- MacDonald Ranch (2000s custom and semi-custom homes) — Multi-zone systems with zone dampers and communicating thermostats. Air handlers in garage or attic locations.
- Cadence (2015-present new construction) — Smart thermostats, variable-speed air handlers, and communicating systems. Some homes feature mini-split supplemental cooling.
Where We Serve in Henderson
We serve Henderson neighborhoods including Water Street District, Inspirada, Cadence, MacDonald Ranch, Mission Hills, and McCullough Hills and surrounding communities.
Why do Henderson homes have so many different HVAC system ages?
Henderson's development spans from the 1950s (Water Street) through today (Cadence), creating a 70+ year construction range — the widest in the valley. This means our technicians encounter everything from original R-22 systems to modern smart HVAC on Henderson calls.
Does Henderson's elevation affect my HVAC system?
Yes. Henderson sits at 1,867 feet with some areas reaching 3,000+ feet. Higher-elevation areas like Anthem and Seven Hills are 5-8°F cooler than the valley floor, meaning shorter AC seasons but colder winters that put more demand on heating systems.
Split System Installation Priorities for Henderson Homes
Split system installation in Henderson requires coordinating indoor and outdoor units with properly sized refrigerant lines, matched components, and ductwork that delivers correct airflow to every room. Henderson split system service encompasses the widest range of residential configurations in the valley: 1950s Water Street homes with retrofitted split systems in converted spaces, 2000s master-plan homes with standard builder installations, and 2020s Cadence homes with matched communicating systems. This diversity is why Henderson split system work requires technicians experienced across all equipment eras. Henderson's elevation also creates slightly different operating pressures than valley-floor systems, a factor in accurate refrigerant charging.
