Mini Splits & Heat Pumps in Louisiana
Louisiana summers are among the most humid in America — New Orleans dew points sit in the mid-70s for four months, with hurricane-season rain adding indoor humidity challenges. Winters are mild (30s at coldest), so heating is secondary. Saltwater corrosion along the coast and in the Mississippi Delta is a serious condenser concern.
What Works in Louisiana
Highest available SEER2 is the right answer for Louisiana — cooling hours are so high the efficiency delta pays back in 3–4 summers. Coastal installs must spec marine-grade coil coatings and hurricane-rated mounting hardware. Variable-capacity inverter models dramatically outperform fixed-speed units at humidity control during the wet shoulder seasons.
