Flexible Heating and Cooling for the Spaces You Enjoy Most
More Ways to Make Every Room Comfortable
Every home has different comfort needs.
Maybe you’ve added a new room, finished a basement, converted a workspace, or have an area that never seems to stay at the right temperature.
Grant Heating and Cooling Systems offers heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and evaporative cooling services to help customers explore options beyond traditional central systems.
Ductless Mini-Splits
Ductless mini-splits provide heating and cooling without requiring a conventional whole-home duct system.
They typically use an outdoor unit connected to one or more indoor units.
Where Ductless Systems May Be Useful
Home additions
Finished basements
Individual rooms
Home offices
Workshops
Older homes without ductwork
Spaces requiring independent temperature control
Proper equipment selection and installation are essential to achieving the intended comfort.
Heat Pump Systems
Heat pumps transfer heat to provide cooling and heating.
Modern equipment offers different performance characteristics, including options designed for colder climates.
In the Uintah Basin, system selection should consider winter temperatures, building heating load, and whether supplemental heating is appropriate.
Swamp Coolers and Evaporative Cooling
Evaporative cooling uses water evaporation to reduce incoming air temperature.
This approach can be useful in suitable dry-air conditions, although cooling performance decreases as humidity rises.
Grant offers services for compatible evaporative cooling equipment.
Which Option Is Right for Your Property?
The right solution depends on your building, existing equipment, comfort goals, and budget.
A mini-split may be useful for an addition, while a heat pump may provide both heating and cooling for a larger application.

Mini-Split, Heat Pump and Swamp Cooler FAQs
1. Can a mini-split both heat and cool?
Yes. Many ductless mini-splits provide both functions.
2. Do mini-splits require ductwork?
No. Ductless systems condition spaces through indoor units.
3. Are mini-splits suitable for home additions?
They can be useful when extending existing ductwork is impractical.
4. Can heat pumps work during Utah winters?
Some cold-climate models are designed for low outdoor temperatures. Suitability depends on the building and equipment.
5. Can a heat pump replace a furnace?
In some properties, yes. Heating load and supplemental heating needs should be evaluated.
6. Can one mini-split cool multiple rooms?
Some systems support multiple indoor units.
7. Are ductless systems energy-efficient?
They can be efficient, depending on equipment, installation, and usage.
8. How is a swamp cooler different from central AC?
Evaporative cooling uses water evaporation, while conventional AC uses a refrigerant-based cooling process.
9. Why isn’t my swamp cooler cooling properly?
Possible causes include airflow restrictions, water distribution issues, worn pads, or high humidity.
10. Can you provide an estimate for a ductless installation?
Yes. Contact Grant to discuss your project.
