The bins in the garage and the cardboard under the attic joists look closed and safe until you lift a lid in August. Attics and garages around Austin regularly see the most extreme temperatures in the house, and electronics, photos, and documents all degrade faster with that heat even when nobody is standing in the room. Jester Climate puts a ductless mini split in that storage space so a modest, consistent temperature does the watching you cannot do every afternoon.
$400 materials deposit books your day. The balance is due when the work is finished and you're happy with it. Anything outside a standard install is quoted before work begins, never discovered after.
People do not think about storage climate until something is already damaged: a photo album that sat through one more summer, a power supply that cooked on a garage shelf, or a folder of papers that turned yellow at the edges. The harm is quiet and does not set off a smoke alarm. It just waits in the heat until the day you need the item.
A modest, consistent temperature does more good than an occasional check in with the garage door cracked or a fan pointed at a stack of boxes. You cannot undo the hours the attic already spent at the peak of the day. A ductless mini split, materials and labor, is how we give that room a narrower band instead of letting the roof and the concrete slab run the climate for your keepsakes.
Jester Climate serves Austin and the I-35 corridor. The dragon on the throne deals the week's prices like playing cards, with one Joker Day each week at a lower rate than the standard $2,400 flat installation. The crew is licensed. Sizing for an attic or garage is a rule of thumb that we confirm on site, never a promise of a certain capacity from a description over the phone.
Heat is what speeds fade, glue failure, and wear on electronics in those rooms. Holding a modest, consistent temperature in the space you already use for boxes is the point of putting a ductless unit there. We install materials and labor so that room can stay out of the worst swings Austin puts on a roof and a slab.
Sizing is always a rule of thumb that gets confirmed by an on-site visit. We will not promise a specific BTU number for your storage room from a phone call. The visit looks at insulation, sun on the roof, garage doors, and how the boxes sit, so the equipment matches the room instead of a guess.
The standard installation price is $2,400, materials and labor together, flat rate. One day every week is Joker Day, priced lower, and that day moves week to week, with the exact price on the homepage. Booking takes a $400 materials deposit to hold the day, and the remaining balance is due when the work is finished.
You do not have to strip the whole space. We need a clear wall or ceiling area for the indoor head, a path for the line set, and room for the outdoor unit. Boxes of photos and documents can stay as long as we can work around them. If a stack sits where the head should go, we will say so on the site visit so you can shift it.
An occasional check in is how most people miss it. Attics and garages regularly see the most extreme temperatures in the house, including on weekdays when the door stays shut. By the time a photo sticks to the sleeve or a laptop will not power on, the heat has already done the work. A mini split holding a modest, consistent temperature covers the days you are not out there looking.
