Hosting a graduation party in the garage

If you are planning a graduation party in the garage, you already know the kitchen will get crowded fast. The garage can become real party space, but Central Texas heat in May and June turns it into an oven once guests, tables, and food fill the room. Planning the cooling ahead of that one big day beats scrambling the week of.

For this room

Hosting a graduation party in the garage

A garage full of people and food adds genuine heat, especially during graduation season in Austin. Without a proper cooling system, guests will drift back into the kitchen and the garage stays just overflow storage. A ductless mini split changes that, making the garage a comfortable room where people actually want to hang out.

Jester Climate installs mini splits at a flat rate of $2,400, covering all materials and labor. One day each week is the Joker Day at a lower price, and that day moves week to week. You book with a $400 materials deposit to hold your date, and the remaining balance is due when the work is finished. The crew is licensed and works along the I-35 corridor.

Sizing the unit for your garage is done by rule of thumb based on square footage and insulation, then confirmed by an on-site visit. No one promises a specific BTU number for your room until we see it. Getting the install scheduled before the party gives you real usable space, not just an afterthought.

Common questions

What people ask us about this

How do I know what size mini split my garage needs?

We use a rule of thumb based on your garage's square footage, ceiling height, and insulation. That gets confirmed during a free on-site visit so the unit actually matches the space. No one guesses or promises a specific BTU number over the phone.

How does the pricing and booking work?

The standard flat rate is $2,400 for materials and labor together. One day each week is the Joker Day at a lower price, and that day changes week to week. You pay a $400 deposit to hold your install date, and the rest is due after the work is done.

Can you install it before my graduation party date?

Yes, we schedule ahead and the deposit locks in your day. If you call now, we can likely fit the install before your party. The Joker Day might fall on a week that works, but we do not guarantee which day it lands on.

Will the mini split actually keep the garage cool with a crowd inside?

Yes, a properly sized ductless mini split handles the heat load from people, food, and appliances. The on-site visit confirms the sizing so the unit can keep the room comfortable even when the garage is full of guests.

What if I need the install done quickly, like within a week?

We can work with your timeline. Give us a call and we will see what dates are open. The Joker Day might be available that week, but we do not promise a specific price or day until you check the homepage.
