Hvac recommendation? Traditional or minisplits?

[Ryan Schuler]

Going to be renovating both sides of a duplex soon. 2/1 on each side with living room and kitchen. Total sq ft between the two places is about 1500 sqft. They only have one window unit on each side right now, way up at the front of the house (each side is shotgun style), then floor or wall heating units for winter.

What would the cost differences be between doing minisplits vs traditional heating/cooling with ducts? Advantages/disadvantages of both?

I am in Memphis- weather gets up to 105* in summer and lows in the 10-20* range in the winter.

I’m trying to attract a higher class tenant in a c+ area that is evolving and improving.

I'd go conventional if it's readily feasible. Minisplits are a solution for difficult situations but are likely going to be more expensive if you need multiple units.
