If the crib is in the room over the garage, you already know that floor has almost no insulation buffer when Texas heat sits in the space below. Babies cannot regulate temperature well, and a hot nursery is a real safety concern. Central air often reaches that room last and weakest, so a consistent overnight temperature is what you are actually chasing, not just a cooler 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.
A nursery over an attached garage is one of the hardest rooms in a Texas house to keep at a safe temperature for a baby. The floor has almost no insulation buffer below it, so garage heat soaks upward while the last vent in the house often feels like a whisper. That is the room where you need the temperature to hold through the night, not drift.
A ductless mini split puts the cooling in the nursery itself, materials and labor included in the install. The crew at Jester Climate is licensed, and they treat any size talk as a rule of thumb until an on-site visit confirms what that room over the garage needs. Nothing about a baby's room should be guessed from a hallway thermostat.
Sleep is the overnight test. A baby who is too warm will not stay down, and you will be up checking the room. Standard installation is $2,400 flat for materials and labor. One day each week the dragon on the throne deals Joker Day at a lower price than the standard rate, and that day moves week to week, with the exact price revealed on the homepage.
That room sits over a space with almost no insulation buffer, so heat from the garage comes straight up through the floor. Central air typically arrives there last and weakest, which leaves the crib in the least served corner of the house. Babies cannot regulate temperature well, so this is a safety issue as much as a comfort issue.
Sizing is a rule of thumb only, and it gets confirmed by an on-site visit, never as a guarantee from a page like this. Someone needs to see the nursery, the garage below, and how the rest of the house is laid out. We do not promise a specific BTU number for a room before that visit.
Standard installation is $2,400, materials and labor together, as a flat rate. One day every week is Joker Day, priced lower than the standard rate. The Joker day moves week to week and the exact price is revealed on the homepage. A $400 materials deposit holds the day, and the remaining balance is due when the work is finished.
Overnight temperature is the reason many parents want cooling in that room, because sleep falls apart when a baby is too warm. The indoor unit sits in the nursery, so it is not waiting on the weakest vent from the central system. A consistent night is what you are after, and that is what a ductless system in that room is for.
A ductless mini split is installed for that room, materials and labor, without a full-house duct rebuild. The licensed crew works on the nursery and the outdoor unit. You can keep using the rest of the house the way you already do.
