Rockland, MA – Daikin Mini-Split Installation
We recently completed a standout project in Rockland, MA, transforming the heating and cooling dynamics of a two-family home. The existing setup of four zones of electric baseboard heat, notorious for driving up winter electric bills to around $800, was replaced with a state-of-the-art Daikin mini-split system.
Our team expertly installed three indoor heads connected to a single, energy-efficient condenser, meticulously sized to meet the home’s specific needs. This upgrade not only provides superior heating and cooling but also offers advanced features like dehumidification and fan mode for optimal comfort. The result? The entire system now operates on a single 20-amp circuit, promising significant energy savings and a comfortable living environment. This project exemplifies our commitment to delivering top-tier service, maintenance, and installation of advanced cooling and heating systems.

We also inspected the ductwork and insulation, observing that the insulation is in great shape with minimal fraying or damage, and that airflow was consistent and unobstructed during testing.
Based on our assessment, we concluded that while the HVAC equipment is older, its current performance is strong, and there are no immediate concerns. The systems have clearly benefited from regular maintenance and thoughtful care. We provided the homeowner with a detailed report outlining our findings and recommendations.

Coastal Comfort & Safety First: Daikin Mini-Split Replacement in Scituate with Harborside Heating & Cooling
At Harborside Heating & Cooling, we recently completed a unique and challenging job in beautiful Scituate, MA, where we replaced two 1-to-1 Daikin mini-split systems. This project not only showcased our expertise in HVAC solutions but also highlighted our unwavering commitment to safety and efficient installations.
The homeowner was looking to upgrade their existing ductless systems with new, energy-efficient Daikin mini-splits. While the job itself was straightforward, the property presented some significant challenges.

To ensure a safe and clean installation, we utilized our towable 35′ boom lift. This specialized equipment allowed us to access the installation points with ease, avoiding the risks associated with traditional ladders on such challenging terrain. The boom lift provided a stable platform for our technicians to work from, enabling precise and secure mounting of the outdoor units.
The use of the boom lift also facilitated a clean and professional installation of the line sets and line hide. By positioning our team perfectly, we were able to neatly route the lines, ensuring they were both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The result was a seamless integration of the new mini-split systems with the home’s exterior.
And let’s not forget the view! Working on this project was a treat, as we had the opportunity to enjoy the stunning ocean backdrop that Scituate is famous for. Being Harborside Heating & Cooling, it’s always a pleasure to work near the water and provide comfort to coastal communities.

Smooth Sailing with a New HVAC System in Scituate, MA!
At Harborside Heating & Cooling, we recently completed a challenging but rewarding HVAC system installation in Scituate, MA, and we’re excited to share the details! Our customer was looking to replace their old, inefficient system, which used the outdated R-22 refrigerant. We were able to upgrade them to a brand-new, energy-efficient system using the more environmentally friendly R-32 refrigerant.
This project presented some unique challenges. First, the home had blown-in insulation, which required extra care to ensure no dust or debris entered the living space during the installation. To top it off, it was a rainy day, making the outdoor work a bit more difficult. The biggest hurdle, however, was the limited access to the installation site. With no traditional access points available, our skilled technicians had to get creative and carefully maneuver the new air handler and condenser through the return grill. Talk about a tight squeeze!
Despite these obstacles, our team persevered and completed the installation in just one day, leaving our customer thrilled with the results. In fact, here’s what Gary Durante had to say:
“The guys from Harborside were outstanding! Replaced my a/c system in one day. I called them on Monday, Tuesday they showed up and gave me a fair no B/S, no up sell estimate. I had a new system by end of day Thursday! Knowledgeable, friendly, professional. Highly recommended!”
