Board game collectors

Your board game collection is more than a hobby, it is a room full of cardboard boxes, wooden tokens, and hours of shared fun. But humidity swings can warp those boxes and long game nights get miserable when the room is stuffy or too hot. A dedicated mini split keeps the air steady and comfortable, so your collection stays in good shape and your friends stay at the table.

For this room

Board game collectors

Game boxes and cardboard components are sensitive to humidity. A mini split controls both temperature and moisture, helping prevent warping, swelling, or musty smells that can ruin a prized game. That steady climate also makes the room feel more like a proper game hall, not a converted garage that gets swampy by midday.

Long sessions with friends demand a room that stays comfortable hour after hour. If your game room is a bonus room or converted garage, central air rarely reaches it well. A dedicated mini split delivers cool or warm air right where you need it, so game night is never cut short because the heat finally won.

We charge a flat rate of $2,400 for materials and labor together. One day each week is our Joker Day at a lower price, and the exact amount changes week to week, revealed on our homepage. To hold your day, we ask for a $400 materials deposit, and the rest is due when the work is finished. Our crew is licensed and we size every system with a rule of thumb that gets confirmed by an on-site visit, so you get the right fit for your room.

Common questions

What people ask us about this

How does the mini split help protect my board game boxes?

Humidity changes can cause cardboard to warp, curl, or develop a musty smell, and wooden components can swell. A mini split actively removes moisture from the air while keeping the temperature steady, which helps preserve the condition of your game boxes and pieces over time.

Can you install in a converted garage or bonus room that doesn't have central air?

Yes, those are exactly the rooms we work in most often. Since a garage or bonus room rarely has strong ductwork, a ductless mini split is a clean solution that mounts on the wall or ceiling and runs a small line set to an outdoor unit. It gives you independent control without needing to extend your existing system.

How do you determine the right size unit for my game room?

We use a rule of thumb based on square footage, ceiling height, and how many windows and people are in the room. But we always confirm that estimate with an on-site visit before installation. We do not promise a specific BTU number for your room ahead of time, because the real load depends on the exact space.

What is the Joker Day pricing?

One day each week we set a lower price than our standard $2,400 flat rate. The Joker Day changes week to week, and the exact dollar amount is posted on our homepage. We do not list it here because it moves, but you can check the site or call us to see what this week's deal is.

How does the payment work for the installation?

We ask for a $400 materials deposit when you book your installation day. That holds your spot and covers the equipment we order. The remaining balance is due once the work is finished and you are happy with the result. We do not charge extra for labor or surprise fees, the flat rate covers everything.
