Mounds View is a smaller, close-knit community built largely during the postwar boom, and many of its modest ranch homes have added ductless mini splits over the years to cool additions and rooms the original systems never quite reached. The flat terrain near Long Lake also brings its own share of humidity through the summer months. O’Boys Plumbing, Heating & Air has repaired mini splits throughout Mounds View for more than 25 years.

Excellent service from the call to the technician! Rare. They were able to come out same day in the evening! Even more rare. Chad was knowledgeable, explained everything to me and I couldn't be happier with the final bill! Unheard of!! I will refer everyone to O'Boys.

We had a great experience with O’Boys. We had a furnace tune-up done, and Chad was really knowledgeable and informative. He walked us through options and pricing, and helped us understand what to expect with our furnace in the coming years. We look forward to working with O’Boys again.

I had Great experience with Rob during the consultation. He was detailed, informative, personable and professional. He gave me options and broke down rebates and payment options for me. Reasonable price as well!

Second time using O’Boys and they did not disappoint! Chad was so knowledgeable, efficient, and kind. Was able to fix my problem and gave me some great tips going forward. Excellent work and excellent customer service. Chad—you rock—thank you so much!!

How We Repair Mini Splits in Mounds View

We start every visit by reviewing your system’s age and original installation, since many Mounds View homes have relied on the same mini split for years without a full inspection. Our technicians check refrigerant levels, electrical connections, and drainage as standard steps.

Once we’ve identified the issue, we complete the repair and test the system under full load to confirm proper performance. Given the flat terrain and proximity to Long Lake, we also check condensate drainage closely, since humidity can build up more in this part of town during summer.

We finish by explaining our findings and sharing maintenance tips suited to your home.

Inside a Typical Service Visit

A homeowner named Gary near the Long Lake area called us after his mini split started making a grinding noise whenever it turned on. Our technician found a worn fan motor, a common issue in units that have run for several years without maintenance.

After replacing the motor and testing the system through a full cycle, the unit ran quietly again. Gary asked what he could do to catch issues like this earlier, so our technician recommended a yearly checkup to keep the system running smoothly.

frequently asked questions

Do older ranch homes need special mini split care?

Sometimes. Original installations in older homes can differ from modern standards, so our technicians take that into account during every repair.

Why is my outdoor unit making a grinding noise?

This is often caused by a worn fan motor, which is a common repair for units that have run for several years without maintenance.

Does proximity to Long Lake affect my mini split?

It can. Homes closer to the lake may see more humidity, which can affect condensate drainage if the system isn’t maintained.

How fast can I get a repair scheduled in Mounds View?

We offer same-day service for most repair calls throughout the community.

How often should an older unit be checked?

We recommend a yearly checkup for older systems to catch wear before it leads to bigger repairs.
