If your home relies on a boiler for heat, chances are you’re dreading another hot, sticky summer. Without central air and no ductwork, your options have probably felt limited — until now. Introducing ductless mini-split air conditioning systems — the clean, quiet, energy-efficient way to cool your home without major renovations.
Most older homes with boilers were never built for central AC. That means:
No built-in ductwork
Noisy, leaky window units that barely keep up
High electricity bills from inefficient cooling
Hot, humid bedrooms that make it hard to sleep
Sound familiar? You're not alone — and we’ve got the solution.
A ductless mini-split is a small, wall-mounted unit that delivers powerful air conditioning — without needing ductwork. It connects to a sleek outdoor condenser and can cool individual rooms or entire floors with whisper-quiet operation and zoned temperature control.
Benefits You’ll Feel Right Away:
Cool Any Room in Your Home — Even additions, attics, or basements
No Ductwork Required — Perfect for boiler-heated homes
Lower Energy Bills — Energy-efficient performance you can see
Year-Round Comfort — Some systems provide heat in colder months
Cleaner Air — Built-in filtration improves indoor air quality

Called manning as they installed my furnace about 2 years ago. Had a power outrage yesterday and couldn’t get it to come back on… they came out within 30 minutes of me calling and was very nice and understanding. I am now back up and running… wanted to leave a review as I am still happy I chose them. Thank you team!
I am so impressed. Their service technician was very professional and informative. He was very knowledgeable and extremely proficient. I would highly recommend them for service and troubleshooting. This firm was sent by DTE service and I am so glad they did. I now have a preferred service company for ALL HVAC service and installation!!!!
A service guy from DTE recommended Manning Mechanical for a boiler replacement job. I called and spoke with a professional and polite receptionist. Although it was late in the afternoon, she assured me someone would come to our home to give an estimate that day. The owner, Carlin came that evening to give us an estimate.
